Is something in your life not working? Are you struggling with depression, anxiety or chronic pain? Are you in a relationship that isn't fulfilling or a job you don't enjoy? Do you struggle to shut down the negative thoughts in your head that keep you awake at night and prevent you from feeling joy and presence in your life.
I believe that therapy is a journey, and I am here to guide you. Together we will identify what is keeping you stuck and I will provide you with the tools to move forward.
As your therapist I will offer you skills to help experience your mind and body in the present moment without projecting into the future or sinking back into the past. I will join you in finding a new relationship to your pain in order to become more self accepting and compassionate towards self and others.
