Do you often find the voice of your inner critic to be louder than your own? Are you feeling disconnected from the person you "once" were? As we go through life, our self worth and sense of direction is frequently challenged, leaving us feeling anxious, stressed and lost. The pressure to live up to expectations of being the perfect partner, parent, child, friend or employee, often causes us to lose sight of our strengths and holds us back. Through our therapeutic work, I aim to help each person rediscover themselves, and grow a sense of self compassion to create long lasting changes!

Authentic Movement is an improvisational, meditative movement practice based on the Jungian concept of active imagination. In a typical session, we start with a verbal check in. Then, you will be invited to close your eyes and wait for an impulse to move. You can choose to follow your impulses or not — there are no wrong choices. As your trained witness, I will serve as a supportive presence, holding the container for your experience. Afterwards, you will have a chance to share about your movement, and, if you’d like, I will offer you non-judgmental reflection.

Anxiety, feelings of insecurity, trauma and complicated relationship struggles are part of the human condition. When these vulnerabilities become overwhelming, psychotherapy can be an invaluable resource that can help you not only regain a previous sense of balance but emerge from the experience a more resilient and grounded person. Crisis and inner turmoil are often a response to life transitions, stress or adverse events that call on our creativity. Psychotherapy is a process of finding your way to the creative and agentic capacities within yourself, in a context of a safe relationship.

I work with people in situations that take them to the edge of their abilities or comfort zone. When we are not sure what to expect, our minds may try to fill in the uncertainty with strong thoughts and emotions. They can be mild, or strong enough to stop people from doing the things they need to do every day because of anxiety or depression.Sometimes there are things about our lives that we can't change, but those things don't have to keep us from taking the steps that we can.

Life is an exercise in the Unexpected. Often, it is when all is seemingly in-tact, that you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious, less connected or struggling to find meaning. You want to be present, find ease and experience joy, but anxiety, life changes, trauma or relationship-struggles keep getting in your way. Despite your best efforts, it feels like you have lost the way to feeling connected and truly present to enjoy the simple day-to-day moments. All pains are growing pains, and this pivotal moment is an opportunity to gain access to the life you deserve. I am here to help.

Our mission in the groups is to help participants recognize the feelings that make them uncomfortable-boredom, loneliness, frustration, depression- and to learn how to respond in more constructive and healthy ways.
