My approach is rooted in mindfulness and faith to help you understand and navigate intense emotions, patterns, and beliefs that keep you feeling stuck and disconnected—from yourself, others, and God.
You’re used to having it all together—thriving in your career, managing responsibilities, and meeting expectations. But inside, you feel overwhelmed or disconnected. Maybe you’re grappling with divorce, trauma, or anxiety. Or, you’re stuck in people-pleasing patterns, struggling to manage your ADHD, or facing relationship challenges. Ongoing self-doubt and low self-esteem impact your daily life, but you aren’t sure how to move forward. These experiences can leave you feeling isolated and frozen, even when everything on the outside looks ‘fine.’ Regardless of where you are, you don’t have to go through this alone.

I am clinically trained and incorporate techniques informed by Polyvagal Theory, EMDR, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, CBT, TF-CBT, Somatic Experiencing, and Mindfulness- Based Stress Reduction.
For over 10 years, I have devoted my time and shared space with many individuals on their personal journeys in finding their own voice, rhythm, and self-compassion. Life is fast-paced, and it is easy to inherit or build narratives about ourselves and our journeys that do not allow us to embrace our true nature. Depression, stress, self-doubt, unfulfillment, shame, trauma, negativity and regret can often serve as barriers in becoming who we are truly meant to be. Many of us continue battling these struggles on our own, when surrendering and sharing with another is the beginning path to freedom and clarity.

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.
