Welcome!

Santa Fe Life Counseling Services is a private therapy practice offering a range of psychotherapeutic, counseling and educational services to meet people’s psychological and emotional concerns.  Life is an unfolding story where at times, our experience in the world is at odds with our internal sense of self and help is needed to help you move through and forward with your life.

Life transitions such as divorce, job loss, relocation, death, relationship issues, illness and a spiritual search for meaning are all experiences that can be fully acknowledged and addressed with support and insight.

Trauma, whether recent or long-held, can separate many of us from our deeper sense of self.  Trauma can take different forms, but the impact is the same. Simply coping by oneself can lead to anxiety, fear, addiction, illness and depression. But these behaviors are not you. They are not your original sense of self. Your best self. Your true self.

My successful clients develop greater understanding, greater clarity and a stronger sense of self. They experience more fully who they are. They reclaim a more positive sense of self and they come to understand themselves more deeply.
