Hello and Welcome
I offer a full range of therapy services for local and international clients, including individual psychological counseling and couples counseling. I also offer coaching services including relocation coaching and life-stage transition coaching.
I work online with clients in countries around the world. I also have an office in Berlin, Germany, where I established my first expat therapy practice in 2005.
My areas of interest and specialization include expat relocation and cultural adjustment, CBT (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy), stress and anxiety management, and personal, relationship and career transitions. For more details please see my Counseling and Coaching pages. Further descriptions can also be found on my Courses page.
I believe reaching out for help is a strength and a smart thing to do. The following example describes my view on seeking counseling, and it applies to coaching as well.
If your car is giving you trouble, which approach is better: to ignore it and risk the problem getting worse, to try to fix it yourself although you have no training as a car mechanic, or to take it to a professional who can use his/her training and expertise to help fix it? We are far more likely to take our car to a professional than we are to take ourselves to one. Yet clearly our lives are more important than our cars, and they deserve better--or at least equal!--care.
Whether you decide to work with me or someone else, I encourage you to find a good "life mechanic" who can help you resolve any problems you may be experiencing, and help you increase the quality and rewards of your life journey.
I would be very glad to offer you a free and confidential informational consultation if you would like to learn more about my services and how they might be beneficial to you. Please use my Contact form or email me directly for more information or to set up an appointment:
