Overwhelmed? Alone? Stuck ? Are you experiencing a transition in your life that seems unbearable? Are you feeling angst and anxiety that has overtaken your daily schedule? My approach is client centered, warm and non judgmental. I feel it is important to create a safe space for all individuals. I think addressing the whole individual (mind, body, and soul) is imperative to healing. For those who prefer, I am willing to discuss existential questions like “Who am I?, What is my life’s purpose?, What is my mission in life?” While sitting with me we can explore your connection with a Higher Power(God, Mother Earth, The Universe etc.)
I have been working with folks for 30 + years and held many roles. Presently, my area of focus is anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges and life transitions. We can explore using existential, compassionate/wisdom focused and mindfulness tools. Using evidence-based strategies like CBT, ACT, CPT I will help you strengthen your coping strategies.
Life is an expedition which involves many joys, struggles and tribulations. It is through these difficult times that reaching out for help is key to overcoming the challenge you are experiencing. “We are all just walking each other home.”(Ram Dass) It takes courage to reach out and be vulnerable. Connect with me and let’s take some time to journey together.
