Helping people is my passion. I genuinely enjoy helping my clients develop life-changing habits to help them cope with any of life's various obstacles. You will find working with me to be safe, collaborative, and non-judgmental. I strive to empower my clients to create long-lasting change in their lives.
Integrating Family Systems Therapy (FST) with the structure of mindfulness based cognitive therapy (MBCT) enables my clients to look at the "big picture". Not only do we look at stresses, but I teach my clients about mindfulness and how this powerful practice can assist them in coping with these stresses.
FST focuses on the "nature plus nurture" viewpoint, exposing how we unwittingly repeat unhealthy familial patterns. Whether you are ready to move away from anger, develop coping skills for anxiety and/or depression, process the loss of a relationship, or improve your current relationships, I'm here to assist.
