My style of counseling is relaxed, compassionate, and non-judgemental. Working primarily from a Gestalt perspective, which does not assume pathology, I also draw from practical mindfulness, yoga and vedanta, and the Enneagram as needed. So much of the world feels like complete shite right now. Within our control is the ability to learn about and care for ourselves, the benefits of which extend to all with whom we interact as well.
The therapeutic process can help you to gain awareness, process what is unresolved, and experience healing integration. We will work together, staying connected to the present moment, and focus on what is important to you.
I have the utmost reverence for counseling process and hope I may be of beneficial service to you.
