I work with individuals and couples, as well as children, in both DC and Chapel Hill. I do best with adults who are educated or reflective: many are scientists, artists, health and business professionals, or psychotherapists, and some are not pursuing conventional achievement.Some see me for family or work problems, some for help dealing with a chronic health issue or a loss, some to change longstanding emotional and interpersonal patterns involving anxiety, anger, or intimacy. We may try quick and simple approaches first, because sometimes they work, but if not we can go more deeply into the individual’s unique personal narrative.
Though I’ve left UNC, I still teach and supervise. Working with children helps me understand where adult issues originate; working with adults helps me project where a child’s behavior is leading. I’ve learned volumes about parenting from my own children, though no lesson is learned soon enough.
My journey from couch potato to national triathlon champion contributes to my work: balancing effort with rest, coping with pain and injury, food issues, sustaining motivation. My years editing Voices, a leading psychotherapy journal, sharpened my sensitivity to language, and deepened my respect for the personal connection in therapy.
