As an experienced psychologist and Buddhist practitioner, I offer a grounded perspective on cultivating contentment. Living comes with inevitable challenges, pleasant and unpleasant. While difficulties occur, misery is optional. Cultivating compassion, gratitude, friendliness, & equanimity builds resilience and frees you from suffering. We'll use these principles and psychological tools to help you navigate whatever shows up in your life, foster compassion, and live more peacefully. You can learn to get out of your own way to develop a sense of groundedness and safety.
My commitment is to meet you exactly where you are, then utilize professional tools, meditation, and insights to help you reach your highest potential. My approach combines an understanding of human development, spirituality, and behavior change. Less fear. More loving kindness and compassion. You can do this!
Whether you’re at a crossroads, feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or sensing your life isn't what it could be, help is available. No therapist has all the answers; your path is unique and needs to be walked by you. I serve as your guide, not a guru, approaching our work with humility. Together, we can explore the way forward.
