As a young adult seeking direction – confusion and emotional pain is normal. Attempts to numb and counteract this discomfort may become less and less effective, sometimes turning into addictions of their own. Depression and anxiety can make change feel impossible, as if nothing good will ever happen. On the outside things might look ok but the inside feels very wrong. Quick sources of pleasure from our phones, sex, and substances often turn into self-destructive habits. We start to see these mis-guided attempts to help ourselves only make things worse.
I take a holistic approach to working with others that encompasses both the mind and body. Sitting and talking will often be accompanied by guided sensory awareness, breathing exercises, gentle yoga postures, and meditation instruction.
Through working with others and in my personal transformation, I’ve witnessed the vast potential humans have to alchemize pain into positivity. Time and again, I'm amazed to see how badly lives can be damaged – only to come up out the mud with wisdom, love, and compassion.
