Personal

I received my Masters Degree in Social Work from the University of York in England in 1982, and received my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Leeds University in England and City University of New York. I was employed by Social Services in England, where I counseled abused children and their families. After returning to the United States I provided psychotherapy and diagnostic services to children, adolescents, and adults in hospitals and outpatient clinical settings. I am licensed to practice as a clinical psychotherapist in California. Presently, I am in private practice in Escondido, CA.

I believe that we all have the ability to live peaceful and contented lives. I help people identify their strengths, minimize their weaknesses, and direct them down a path that brings about peace, hope, and resolution. I focus on individuality and uniqueness, as each individual comes to me with their own special talents. Over time, I have witnessed a great deal of growth and change within my patients’ lives. As a psychotherapist, it is my utmost privilege to assist each individual in choosing a path that ultimately results in a peaceful and balanced life. I am very passionate about the therapy I provide, and come to you with a great deal of energy, motivation and expertise. I guide my patients in overcoming their life struggles – in order to allow each individual to reach their fullest potential.
