It takes courage to ask for help. I honor you in your pursuit of healing and wholeness. Experience and data show that a strong therapeutic relationship is the key to success in therapy. I endeavor to provide a safe container into which each individual human being who comes for therapy is welcomed. Being met with empathy, respect, acceptance, kindness, understanding, genuineness and non-judgement opens a space where each person can explore their issues without feeling the need to censor or conform. Having another person inalienably aligned with your own deepest Self empowers your unique route to healing and so transformation.
I believe in working both from within and without. By within, I refer to the deeper soul/spirit/imaginal/abstract levels of each individual's psyche, and by without, I speak of behaviors, both the behavior we exhibit in the world and also the behaviors within our minds (our thoughts, both conscious and unconscious).
My practice as a therapist includes the discoveries in the neuro-sciences and the richness of depth psychology traditions. I also incorporate cafefully selected evidenced based practices (especially CBT and Minfulness work). I strive to move my clients and my practice in the directions of kindness, consciousness, compassion, understanding, meaning, enjoying life, love and wholeness.
