My Approach to Helping
"Stuck." At some point in our lives, we all feel it. I help people link their desire for things to be different to the places they feel stuck, healthfully and effectively. You don't need to know how to change, we start with where you are. I like the Chinese proverb, "Acceptance and change are brothers, but acceptance is the older brother." By helping you learn to first accept where you are (even if now it seems impossible), suffering is naturally reduced and there is more energy and room for growth. You get to like yourself now AND change.

Though I work with clients with a multitude of issues, I specialize in adolescents, couples/ families, trauma, and addiction. I utilize mindfulness techniques in conjunction with psychotherapy to help people find more ease and choice in their internal world.
