You can learn to raise yourself...to enhance the positive aspects of life and build resilience in the face of adversity. The therapeutic relationship is tool to gain self knowledge, acceptance and access to your own wisdom. Therapy does not take difficulties in life away. Instead, you change your relationship to them. You learn the difference between the kind of suffering that is natural and unavoidable from the kind of suffering that is self inflicted. With this growing awareness inner strength and respect for yourself grows. Little by little you uproot destructive patterns and come back to life.
For the past 12 years, as a therapist, I have helped people overcome anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship problems and deeply held shame. I am trained in cognitive behavioral therapy...especially mindfulness techniques. I am a meditation teacher, story teller, musician, father, gardener, wood worker and deep listener.
We will be collaborating to develop goals that can be achieved incrementally, strategies for dealing with road blocks, and cultivating an over all sense of warmth and of kindness towards yourself. This is achieved through building skills in mindfulness, dealing with anxiety and depression, relationship skills and gratitude practice.
