I have been a practicing psychotherapist for over 30 years.  
                   
          Areas of expertise include: Anxiety, Depression, Eating
          Disorders, Trauma, Grief and loss, Life Changes/Transitions
          (e.g.parenthood, relocation, marriage, divorce) and undergrad
          and graduate student concerns. 
                     
        I have taught Mindful Eating at the Mindfulness Center at the 
          University of Virginia School of Medicine for the past 5 years.
          Additionally, I provide clinical consultation to individuals,
          groups and organizations, and guest lecture in graduate level
          counseling and traing programs.

                                                         I am a cisgender female (pronouns she/her) and an advocate for
                                                         LGBTQ+ individuals. I and my husband of 38 years are the
                                                         parents of two adult children. In my spare time I enjoy being
                                                         outside as much as possible, moving this old body, music, dance,
                                                         and creating things with clay and other mediums.
                     
                                                         I am an experienced practitioner of Mindfulness Meditation
                                                         which supports all of my work.
