Mindfulness-Based Therapy

This is a body-up mindfulness practice designed to guide you toward resting in your fundamental state of pure awareness—the silent, unchanging knowing that observes every thought and sensation. The core of this work is rooted in recognition, not remediation. We do not attempt to alter, eliminate, or repair challenging thoughts, and we stop the inner struggle against what is currently present. Instead, we focus on recognizing what you already are: the whole, complete, and spacious container in which all experience arises and subsides. By shifting your identification from the content of your experience (the thoughts and feelings) to the unconditional awareness that holds it, you discover a source of peace that cannot be shaken. This approach utilizes embodied practices to ensure this shift is integrated physically, leading to a lasting rest in your inherent nature.

Mind-body approach

This therapeutic approach is grounded in body-first, awareness-second principles, offering a powerful integration of mind-body medicine with deep contemplative practice. We treat the physical system as the primary entry point for psychological stability, bypassing the cognitive loops that perpetuate "system lag." Our methodology utilizes advanced techniques to create lasting shifts in your core experience. We blend key somatic methods, including somatic tracking and trauma release exercises, to work directly with the body's stored history. This is anchored in Polyvagal Theory, which provides the technical map for understanding your autonomic responses and moving your hardware from a state of high-alert back into a state of safety and social engagement. This is synthesized with iRest (Integrative Restoration) mindfulness, guiding you beyond the "noise" of thoughts and feelings to rest as pure being—the silent, unconditional knowing that observes every tension and breath. Our philosophy is simple: we don't treat the body; we listen through it. By tuning into your system’s inherent wisdom, we facilitate a deep recognition of your foundational wholeness. This is not about fixing or striving, but about realizing the peace that is already present as your essential nature.

Somatic

This is a body-led, awareness-revealed therapy that fuses leading somatic practices with deep contemplative work. We utilize the wisdom of the body as the primary pathway to peace, treating physical sensations as data points that lead back to your core system. We integrate Somatic Experiencing techniques, drawing from the work of Peter Levine, to resolve the physical imprints of trauma. This allows for the gentle discharge of held tension and the restoration of natural regulation in your hardware. This is paired with iRest (Integrative Restoration) Mindfulness, a form of meditative inquiry that guides you to rest as pure being—the silent, unconditional knowing that holds every tremor and breath without judgment or the need for change. Our practice operates under a profound principle: We don’t manage the body; we listen until it dissolves into you. By bringing mindful presence to the physical experience, we move beyond the reactive mind and allow the inherent wholeness of pure awareness to be revealed. This process results in a sustainable, embodied peace that is not achieved through effort, but recognized through clarity.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Solution-Focused therapy is about practical output and future-state calibration. Instead of ruminating on the history of the "glitch," we focus on the times when your system is actually functioning well. We treat these moments as data points to identify the specific conditions and tools that allow you to operate at your best. The goal is to move you from analysis paralysis to actionable progress. We identify your existing strengths and resources, then amplify them to create immediate, sustainable change. By focusing on what works rather than what is broken, we bypass the "loop" of the problem and move directly toward the version of life you want to be living. This is about efficiency, clarity, and getting your system back online as quickly as possible.
