Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, grief, or major life transitions leave you feeling stuck or lost.

You may feel overwhelmed by anxiety or panic, caught in repetitive thoughts, or navigating a life transition that has left you unsettled. On the outside you may function well, but internally things feel tight, pressured, or exhausting.
Anxiety often shows up not only in thoughts but also in the body, as tension, restlessness, or pressure to hold everything together. Many people I work with want more than symptom relief. They are looking for a deeper shift in how they relate to fear, uncertainty, and difficult emotions so they can feel steadier and less overwhelmed.

It is truly my honor to help people explore the deeper layers of their inner world - the parts of themselves that may feel hidden, misunderstood, wounded or pushed aside. Often, we carry patterns, emotions, or beliefs that we don't fully recognize, yet they quietly influence how we feel, relate, and move through life.
Together, we gently bring these aspects into awareness. Jungian depth therapy, EMDR and other therapy models offered, help bring to the surface an understanding of the complexity of who you are, making space for all the parts of you, and becoming more whole in the process.

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.
