You want to get unstuck, have clarity and purpose, be at ease in the world. You're tired of frustrating dead end behaviors, and want the confidence to handle whatever life flings your way. Perhaps the grip of anxiety, the burden of depression, a major life transition or deep grief and loss draw you here today. We will collaboratively build skillful ways/healthy coping mechanisms to navigate overwhelm, stress and burnout. Enhancing psychological flexibility and identifying goals that are uniquely yours lay the groundwork for satisfying relationships and support a life lived on your own terms.
I embrace a trauma informed, culturally aware, and inter-generational view of our work. I employ somatic techniques including mindfulness/yoga, am trained in EMDR, and offer Jungian and Buddhist psychological approaches to develop a secure therapeutic relationship. Our work together safely empowers you to make life enhancing choices both at home and at work.
Today's social and cultural forces interact with our challenges and traumas in ways that can trigger big feelings of shame, fear, vulnerability or exposure. I invite you to be gentle with yourself as you consider/imagine reaching out. I welcome our connection when the time is right.
