Therapy, creating, lineage —
and the work of staying human.

I am a trauma and attachment therapist in Ohio, a biomedical engineer with an assigned U.S. patent and one provisional, and a formally trained volunteer Buddhist chaplain of more than ten years. I write about healing, caring for each other, and the ethical use of power in helping work.

About

I am a licensed clinician, a biomedical engineer, and a Buddhist chaplain — formally trained, in private practice. I see trauma and attachment clients in Ohio. I hold two U.S. patents in neurotherapeutic systems. I have served as a volunteer Buddhist chaplain for a decade.

My published books are Gwen's Meadow and the Trauma Healing Coloring Workbook. A third book is in progress — a modern guide to the Bodhisattva's way of life, written for therapists, social workers, chaplains, and the helpers in care work. A clinical white paper on the Acceptable Direction of Power is in preparation.

Proceeds from the Trauma healing workbook go to supporting Hope for a Village, the 501(c)(3) nonprofit I founded to make trauma-informed counseling affordable for those who need it, and the establishment of a wellness in the future.
