Hi there, I'm Donald!
I've lived through single parenthood, divorce, grief, anxiety, depression, and retirement. I've learned to argue without losing it and found happiness in a long marriage. These experiences, combined with ongoing learning, have sharpened my skills and deepened my understanding of what clients face.
My focus
I'm going to meet you where you are. So many of the things we encounter in life we don't do more than once. In a sense, we're all amateurs. We can put together what you know and what I know, test our beliefs, and move toward a resolution.
My approach
I promote agency. That is the difference between my rescuing you and your promoting your self-care. I think the brain is wired for joy, so I try to promote the various dimensions of joy. I do this in the context of successful aging, which focuses on learning, physical movement, the power of relationships, and a continuing quest for meaning in life.
