& Addictions Psychology |

Most
people strive for fulfillment in their personal and
professional lives. However, there are often roadblocks
and pitfalls along the way. Addictive disorders involving
either substances or behaviors are quite prevalent,
as are challenges arising from wounds received in childhood
and amplified by the “slings and arrows of outrageous
fortune” that befall many in adult life. I offer
counseling and psychotherapy that specialize in helping
individuals surmount these challenges in ways that can
lead to empowering discoveries and creative solutions.

| Critical
Incident Stress Management (CISM) |
|
|
A traumatized workforce is a less productive workforce.
Imploding morale, leading to staff turnover, employee
absenteeism, loss of key personnel, and compromised productivity
can penalize any company or organization that does not
deal compassionately with its employees, especially during
times of “critical incidents.”
Critical incidents include reductions-in-force, outsourcing
and reorganizations, workplace violence, workplace sabotage,
terrorist acts and their consequences, natural or man-made
disasters, injury/illness/death befalling key employees
or their loved ones, and workplace stresses arising from
structural conflicts that may be present in the organization
but not openly identified and constructively worked with.
As a provider of CISM services, I work effectively to empower all areas of an organization,
including executives, managers, HR departments and affected employees to meet difficult
challenges and changes. Typical interventions may include, as warranted: group debriefings,
defusings and demobilizations, pre-emptive stress "innoculations," and one-to-one and/or group
consultation at any level of the organization. Any combination of these interventions can
be customized to meet specific client needs. I bring a humane and compassionate presence
to these situations, combined with the professional savvy to move organizations towards
fruitful outcomes.

| Organizational
Development & Training |
|
|
The
greater a workforce’s repertoire of skills, the
more resourceful and productive it becomes. As a trainer
and consultant in organizational development topics, I
help to expand an organization's resources in the areas
of communications skills, stress management, conflict
resolution, balancing the competing demands of home and
work, and coping with insecurities and anxiety, among
others. This is just a small sample of training topics
that are available. Organizational development trainings
can be custom-designed to fit the specific needs of your
group.

I
provide personal coaching, consulting and counseling services
to executive and professional-level individuals in business,
medicine, academia and government.
As your executive coach I am "in your corner" —
a personal (and confidential) ally for the furtherance
of your success (however you come to define it). I strive
to facilitate your unearthing of what goals really serve
you, and help you to define, refine, and implement appropriate
strategies and initiatives that can further your realization
of these goals.
Typical areas of concern addressed with my executive-level
clients include:
- phasing
out of the business: arranging for succession/transfer
of power
- on-the-job
strategic problem solving
- career
planning and development (including career transition)
- balancing
the (often) competing demands of professional and
private life
- "burnout"
first-aid for key personnel
- conflict
resolution and mediation
- developing
a longer-term vision for personal and professional
growth
- layoff/job-loss
counseling & consultation for “separated”
executives
