Specialties:
- End of Life Care
- Geriatrics
- Chronic Pain
- Trauma
- Anxiety & Depression
- Relationship Problems
Bio:
I earned my master’s degree in social work (MSW) at the University of Montana, where I focused on end-of-life care, bereavement, anxiety and depression, geriatrics, and existential and mindfulness-based counseling. Over the years I’ve counseled a diversity of people with a wide array of life challenges, including relationship problems, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, chronic pain, trauma, and life transitions. Prior to my work as a clinical social worker, I earned a master’s degree in creative writing (MFA) and worked as a writer for many years. My book, Through Yup’ik Eyes: An Adopted Son Explores the Landscape of Family, was published in 2000. My love for literature and writing has transferred well to my work as a psychotherapist, and with clients I will often harness the power of prose and poetry to educate, illuminate, and inspire personal growth. I grew up near Lake Tahoe, which instilled in me a lifelong passion for mountains, the natural world, and healthy living. I enjoy backcountry skiing, rock climbing, and cycling, and many of the photographs you see on this website were taken by me, or by friends and family, in wild places nearby and around the world. While my outdoor pursuits have often challenged me physically and mentally, I believe the true adventure in life—the deepest, most courageous living—takes place within our inner landscapes. I envision Mindful Mountain as a place where courageous people come to seek integration of mind, body, and spirit. I hope to be a guide along the way. [Read More]

Bio:
I am a Licensed Psychologist in the States of Nevada (#PY0657) and California (#PSY24434) with over 20 years of education, training, and experience in providing psychological services to individuals, couples, families, groups, and organizations. I specialize in adult evaluation and therapy that create a safe, supportive relationship in which individuals struggling with any number of life’s difficulties, are welcomed to take the adventurous first steps toward greater freedom and fulfillment. I have over 20 years of training and experience in the psychological assessment and treatment of adults from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. My professional experience is drawn from a broad range of settings, including both outpatient and inpatient services. In the corporate sector, I have provided management training and organizational consultation to businesses ranging from retail franchise to multinational, Fortune 500 corporation. My practical training in mental health services included two years providing counseling and marital therapy to community members at a university-affiliated mental health clinic, three years providing therapy in a university counseling center, one year of individualized group psychotherapy training in an urban, community mental health center, one year providing comprehensive psychological assessments for a state bureau of vocational rehabilitation at a behavioral neuropsychology clinic, and a year providing treatment and evaluation in a state psychiatric hospital. I completed an American Psychological Association accredited, predoctoral internship in clinical psychology through Cornerstone Behavioral Health, where I received specialized training in evidence-based, psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalytic theory, as well as the evaluation and treatment of adults living with co-occurring severe mental illness and developmental disabilities in a private residential facility. During my internship, I also provided a year of substance abuse treatment in a community mental health center setting, in addition to providing community members with individual and marital therapy in a private practice setting. I completed my postdoctoral work in forensic and correctional psychology through California Correctional Health Care Services (CCHCS), where I continued to enjoy success in working with underserved, behaviorally challenging, culturally diverse, and allegedly “treatment resistant” populations within a residential setting. In 2012, I was a recipient of the National Register of Health Service Psychologists Early Career Psychologist scholarship. I have recently retired from CCHCS as a Senior Supervising Psychologist managing the daily operations of a mental health department in a maximum security setting. I also served as the Director of Clinical Training, and clinical supervisor, for pre-licensed psychologists and social workers seeking post-graduate experience in corrections.
