About
Are you looking for a solution to anxiety? depression? workplace stress? low self-esteem? traumatic memories? a conflictual relationship? urges or compulsions that seem beyond control? a phobia, procrastination, or some other behavior that interferes with having the life you want?
If so, I am sorry- I don't have one.
What?! Surprised I would say that? I am just being honest. Besides, if I did have one, it would only be temporary, because what works today may not work tomorrow. You don't need a solution, but a strategy for surviving- and thriving- amidst ever-changing life experiences.
I can help you develop resilience to life's inevitable pains and stresses, more confidence in the face of uncertainties, more adaptability in unexpected circumstances. I can help you develop "psychological flexibility."
Psychological flexibility is developed by cultivating mindful awareness and acceptance of your thoughts and emotions, rather than trying to avoid, change, or control them.
Mindfulness helps you see more clearly what makes you tick, and what bogs you down. This will help you to respond rather than react to life's challenges.
You will probably find some workable solutions for today's problems. But even better, you will be better positioned to handle tomorrow's, too.
