I've spent the past year returning to my Private Practice in Havre Montana after contracting for 2 years with the DOD working with the various branches of the Military.  It was a very learning experience, full of travel and unique circumstances.  Having spent the first years of work with the general population and limited contact with the social structures around the people I was helping, this allowed me some truly new opportunities.  My skills with the Military were enhanced, as was my knowledge of Military Life.  During this time I worked in Germany, Alaska, Virginia, and Great Falls Montana. My goal was to work with each branch of the Military as well as the National Guards, and this was accomplished.

I began my career, as far as I can recall, at about the age 4 when I first realized my fascination for human-beings' behaviors. And, about that age, my cluster of friends used me as their confidant. That is often the case with individuals who become clinicians or in other ways seek and get a career in the field of listening.

I was born in November 1952 in New York City. The middle of 3 girls, that is no doubt what spurred my interest in, and study of, birth order, mother-daughter relationships, and the effects of gender on family dynamics.
