I have more than two decades of intensive training in mindfulness and meditation, and I believe that is the reason for my ability to be very present. I believe in the power of human resilience and our unstoppable inclination to grow towards wellness, health and balance. We can heal and grow, no matter what obstacles we face. My clients and I collaborate to fuel positive change and create better relational and mental health outcomes. I have an extensive background in treating clients with depression, anxiety, substance abuse and narcissistic abuse histories.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My clients can expect to have a treatment plan that is tailored towards their particular needs and areas of concern. I try to give both immediate relief through weekly focus discussions, often with homework, while we work on underlying, long-term trauma and attachment style issues over time.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I have used a combination of depth psychology, mindfulness, spiritual practices, cognitive behavioral tools, compassion and humor to provide treatment for adults and children, victims of domestic violence, childhood sexual abuse, and those suffering with substance abuse, grief and PTSD.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My biggest strength is my non-judgmental presence, and my ability to discern what treatment path might best benefit a client. My directness and humor makes it fun!
