Life is challenging for many of us. It often seems like we are swimming in a sea of ambiguity, uncertainty, and doubt and are not sure in what direction to go for relief. We may live in fear that we will not live up to our or other people's expectations. We may beat ourselves up to motivate ourselves. We struggle with transitions and do not live in the present moment instead getting caught up in ruminating about the past or worrying about the future. This situation is due to being human and the way our minds think and feel.
My practice uses mindfulness-based psychotherapies, primarily Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to help adult clients deal with the challenges of living. These evidenced-based therapeutic approaches have been found helpful for clients experiencing difficult life transitions including retirement, academic or work problems, grief, depression, anxiety, caregiver stress, and illness.
I enjoy working with older adults and caregivers. I have worked with a geriatric care and guardianship agency in Raleigh and for hospice in Durham. I would like to work with university students and bring my experiences as a former college professor in economics and as a public health researcher.
