I want to help you open up new ways of thinking, feeling, behaving and experiencing life. I use an informal, collaborative approach. We set goals around what you'd like your life to look like. Then we lay down stepping stones to get you there, such as challenging self-limiting beliefs, building skills like inducing relaxation at will, or communicating such that people will actually listen to you.
I use a variety of approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, dialectical behavior therapy skill-building, and mind-body awareness to help you meet your goals.
Please reach out to me with any questions you have. Life doesn’t have to be as hard as it sometimes is, if you have someone walking alongside you to help you navigate!
