Resources for Clients
Below are some useful resources for clients working with specific diagnoses or with particular practices in psychotherapy with me.
Insight Timer
This is a free app for your cell phone. It lets you time your mindfulness session, giving you a choice of bell sounds to use to end your sittings. It also has a library of free guided meditations for various mindfulness practices such as the body scan and lovingkindness practice. I don't recommend specific guided meditations but suggest that you try some out and use the ones that feel right to you. Let me know which ones you use so we can discuss them in our sessions.
ADDitude online magazine
This online magazine is full of information about ADHD in children, adolescents, and adults. If you are an adult client with ADHD or the parent of a child with ADHD, I recommend that you subscribe to this magazine. It's free. Bring ideas and information from the magazine to therapy or parent collateral sessions for us to discuss.

About This Website
The practices of psychotherapy and mindfulness , each in their own way, inhabit the boundaryland, or limen, between the conscious and unconcsious domains of mind. Perhaps the most widely used visual metaphor for this experiential transitional territory is the place where water meets sand, where ocean meets land, where the liquid depths (the unconscious) meet the more famiiar solidity of surface rock and beach (the conscious mind). To highlight this essential nature of the services I offer, I've chosen to depict that natural juncture of surf and sand at the top of each page. I hope you enjoy these seascapes from Dillon Beach and Bodega Head, both near Petaluma, CA where I live.
An old friend, Tom Riddle, and I built this website using Weebly. Additionally, Tom, with the exception of a few of the beach pictures which I took, deserves credit for all of the photos in this site. The watercolor paintings are my own. Tom's own website is http://thomasriddle.net/, and his YouTube channel is https://www.youtube.com/tomriddle1. On both are links to his writings, pictures, and movies, many of which come from his years of traveling in Asia. (And, yes, for those of you who are Harry Potter fans, that really is his name.) You can see Tom, himself, in the photo in the section on Mindfulness Training for Adults.
