Currently Accepting New Clients in Early Recovery or active addiction. Are you caught up in a cycle of addictive behaviors such as substance misuse, gambling, or the Internet? I have good news and bad news for you. Let’s start with the bad news: it takes effort to stop addictive behaviors, and to address the underlying emotional or trauma issues that compel you to relapse over and over again. There’s no magic wand, no Abracadabra. Now the good news: The cycle doesn’t have to be endless, and recovery is possible!

Navigating life can be challenging. It's natural to need help at times, and joining with another person in a therapeutic alliance can be just what you need to gain more insight, refocus, and find more balance to live life more joyfully. My intention in psychotherapy is to guide individuals to a clearer understanding of their mental and emotional terrain, how their thoughts and feelings may influence their overall sense of well-being, and to explore new perspectives that may benefit them.

I work with older adolescents and adults to better understand themselves in order to reach their goals. Using both a strengths-based perspective and the teaching of coping skills, I look to help clients with mood, motivation, and relationships in order to lead a more fulfilling life. Therapy is a chance to be heard and understood but also an opportunity to target specific ways to make progress. Many of these ways must be practiced in between sessions, just like learning an instrument. I find that a balance between strategy, encouragement and humor is key to reaching therapeutic goals.

Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists
How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.
When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behavior through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.
What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviors and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.
Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioral habits.
