About

You may be here because something is ending, or beginning, or both at once, and the usual sources of advice have started to sound like noise. Everybody has an opinion about what you should do and none of them are living your particular life. A transition is one of the few situations where an outside person with no stake in the outcome is really more useful than a close friend. Friends want a specific answer for you, usually the one that keeps things as they are. I do not need any particular thing to happen, which makes it much easier to think clearly in front of me. That neutrality is most of what I offer. I supervise newer clinicians as well as running my own practice, and the habit I most often have to correct is quietly steering someone toward the tidy outcome. I try hard not to. If the advice has become noise, get in touch.
