About My Clients
Although I enjoy working with all ages and all kinds of people, I particularly enjoy leveraging the experience I’ve gained from the two main jobs I’ve had in my life: corporate executive and mom. Therefore, much of my practice focuses on: Helping teens (and their parents!) get through the growing-up years. Helping high performers, such as professionals, business owners, C-suite executives, and entrepreneurs, balance their high powered lives with their minds and hearts.
My Background and Approach
My background is not that of a typical therapist. I spent over 25 years working in the global investment management industry at an executive level, holding leadership positions where I was responsible for large groups of people and substantial budgets. However, what I was always best at was the people side of the work: finding the good in people, encouraging employees to understand their own potential, and helping leaders access and maximize the greatest strengths of their employees. And now I do those same things with my clients. As a therapist, I have worked with a variety of ages groups, genders, sexual orientations, and ethnicities. It is an honor to work with motivated clients and witness true and meaningful change in their lives. My clients often offer the observation that I’m not always like other therapists. They describe me as “non-judgmental…..full of ideas…..friendly and compassionate…..highly engaged and interactive,” and sometimes…… “funny!”
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am a TEDx Speaker, a non-profit leader, and a former Wheel of Fortune contestant. I’m also a wife, a mom of two college-aged kids, and an avid Labrador Retriever fan. I like to play tennis, pickleball, and ping-pong. I enjoy a great meal (preferably one I didn’t have to cook myself), appreciating the beauty of nature, and spending time with those I love.
