Through the unique connection of therapy you can learn to balance acceptance and change. By identifying self protective behaviors and defenses you can understand their origins, purpose, and how they may now be causing more suffering than protection. The symptoms of these barriers manifest as depression, anxiety, addiction, relational conflict, substance abuse, loneliness and physical illness. You can learn to challenge and release these old beliefs and discover new ways of relating to yourself and others. Through the balancing process of acceptance versus change you can develop new understanding that promotes healing and growth.
Through self acceptance and understanding you can identify how subconscious beliefs can block you from what you truly want. My goal is to assist you in discovering a broader level of consciousness; to grow and heal through developing a more authentic relationship with yourself and to experience greater health and joy in every aspect of your life.
I provide an emotionally safe and nurturing space to help you heal and grow........."What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" - Mary Oliver "Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it." - Rumi. "The best way out is always though." - Robt Frost.
