I believe that when we are buried in fear, anxiety, depression, existential dread or the various forms of mental and emotional distress that lead us to seek counseling, we are primarily dealing with a loss of connection. That disconnection - from people, purpose, safety, motivation, meaning and even disconnection from our own sense of self - can have so many different causes, and each of us must chart our own path to wholeness which can feel impossible to do on our own. I am continuously humbled by the bravery of my clients as they step onto this path of healing and self discovery which is not always easy, but is always worth it.
I work from a wholistic approach which draws on skills from DBT, CBT, ACT, motivational interviewing, depth psychology and psychodynamic theory cultivated over the past 12 years of therapeutic work. I also rely heavily on meditation and mindfulness principles developed via a decade of Zen training including 2 years of monastic residency.
When starting a therapeutic process, it is not always necessary to know exactly what we want, or what the problem is. Mental and emotional suffering is complex, and it often hides in the shadows where we can't quite make it out. It is best simply to start from where we are, with curiosity. Everything else will flow from there. Welcome.
