Individual Therapy

Through having the time and space to focus on yourself, you embark on a deeply personal journey of discovery and growth.

By blending the best of western therapeutic approaches with eastern wisdom, I help my clients:

• Say, feel, and be present with what needs to come forward
• Release the emotional grip of painful past experiences
• Increase self-understanding and awareness of present moment experience
• Develop healthier, more satisfying relationships and work
• Create a deeper sense of ease and balance
• Find more flexibility in how to respond to your life’s circumstances and other people
• Skillfully navigate emotions and
• Build a stronger, lasting and life-affirming connection to yourself

One of the fundamentals of my approach with clients is mindfulness, creating non-judgmental awareness and acceptance of your mental, emotional, and physical experiences. Mindfulness can bring forth feelings, sensations, images, memories, and more – material with which we can explore your inner world. It can also calm down your nervous system, which helps you hold a bigger perspective on your life.

I find mindfulness enormously helpful, even in very small doses, as it helps clients regulate their emotions, their thoughts, and their somatic experiences (i.e. anxiety), inside and out of the sessions.
