I am not accepting new clients at this time.
My passion is to see you living to your full potential through greater consciousness and self-awareness. Tackling difficult issues together can make them less daunting, while uncovering and understanding self-defeating patterns can facilitate lasting change. Using a Jungian/depth psychological approach, we will jointly identify opportunities to grow beyond these problematic areas, gain insight and explore techniques to move towards a more rewarding life. Learning to sit with suffering can liberate us from its bondage and promotes self-compassion, both essential for mental health.
You are the key to gaining a deeper understanding and sustainable solution for your life challenges. We will collaborate on a treatment approach tailored to your particular needs; this may include cognitive behavioral, depth psychology and Jungian-informed approaches. I use mindfulness to improve the ability to tolerate uncomfortable thoughts and emotions.
I will meet you where you are and believe that our work together will uncover hidden aspects of how the mind functions that will enable growth and healing in a safe space. I have extensive experience working with Veterans and the complex issues often found in those that have served in the military. Ready to embrace a more authentic and satisfying life?
