“My ability to hold multiple roles based on my training and experience guides and assists clients to witness and embrace their full potential – and to live this.”  ~ D.

I embrace each and all of these roles in my ability to be of help:

PSYCHOTHERAPIST:
I chose psychotherapy rather than a profession based in a traditional medical model simply because I have always believed that there is so much that we can do to heal ourselves naturally.  While my client base includes many who are prescribed medication, therapy – as the research conclusively suggests – in addition to medication, is far more effective than medication alone.

Choosing to be a Psychotherapist was a decision that felt like a natural extension of who I am. I have always been deeply curious, reflective, and impassioned about discovering what “is true”.  Teaching others how to become their own best source of guidance and wisdom is what I do best.  It’s akin to the metaphorical expression, “Give me ‘fruit and vegetables’ and I eat for a day.  Teach me how to grow ‘fruit and vegetables’ and I eat for a lifetime.”

CHANGE ACTIVIST:
Challenging clients to become agents of change in the quest to abolish self-limiting beliefs; Dorothy’s mission is to act as a facilitator, catalyst, guide and navigator – to awaken the innate healing potential in each individual.

With an intention to elicit fearless self-acceptance by removing the stereotypical impressions of therapy and shifting the perception of what the purpose of therapy is for: which is to help people become self-aware, observant, and wholly truthful.  Out of self-awareness and honesty, we become empowered to “reveal who we are” – and to embrace all of the authentic goodness that comes with accepting one’s self as the true path to infinite happiness.
