Stress, sadness, anxiety, relationship problems, loss, and challenges at school and work are problems we all face as human beings at one time or another. Yet, life doesn't come with an instruction manual, and finding happiness and well-being often seems difficult if not impossible. However, I believe that by understanding some simple principles about the mind and its functioning allows us to tap into our innate wisdom and common sense, make healthier choices, overcome challenges and experience more peace and contentment. I believe change happens in the present through insight, education and understanding, not by delving into the past.

Are you exhausted from dealing with a narcissist or toxic relationship, whether it’s with a partner, ex, or family member? Have you tried everything to successfully interact with this person but still find yourself suffering, going in circles, and feeling utterly drained? You may even be questioning your own sanity, wondering if you’re the crazy one. To make matters worse, the toxic person may have manipulated others into believing they are the victim, and it’s unbearable to watch everyone else fall for their facade when you know the truth. You’re not alone and you’re not crazy. I have so been there and understand the struggle!

I have an extensive background working with children and families. I believe most conflicts within a relationship comes down to effective communication skills, and an openness to look at one's own needs for self-growth. Our early childhood experiences, most often shape our belief systems, and these beliefs may not be moving us in the direction of our dreams and goals. Fear of failure, fear of judgement, fear of change, is often the cause for dreams unrealized. Those I work with should have a strong desire for change, and be willing to sit with their emotions, practice skills learned in session, and commit to living their best lives

"Sometimes life leaves us feeling confused, stressed and emotionally low. I have experience working with adults helping them overcome their struggles with anxiety and depression and with issues such as family and parenting stress, school and work difficulties, unhappy relationships, loss of a loved one and trauma. I also work with children, ages 3 -13 who are experiencing difficulties at school and, or at home. I do individual, couples, family and play therapy (with younger children). I believe, given some gentle direction, people can harness their instinctual ability to decrease their own distress and to live a more contented life."

Transpersonal Therapists

How does transpersonal therapy work?

Transpersonal therapy focuses on a patient’s spirituality and meaning in life. Transpersonal therapists might borrow from Eastern traditions as well as Western psychology. They may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualization, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork to produce altered states of consciousness. The therapist helps the patient to access their consciousness and spirituality to work through difficult mental states.

How long does transpersonal therapy last?

Because the goal is to understand a person as a whole, including their spirituality, treatment can range from months to a year or beyond. While patients learn the philosophy behind transpersonal therapy during treatment, they can also practice its principles throughout life after therapy sessions have ended.

Is transpersonal therapy effective?

Patients have found success with transpersonal therapy; this method is useful in improving anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, fears, relationship problems, and other concerns. Improvements in problem areas can continue even after transpersonal therapy ends, as individuals can utilize the tools they’ve learned during treatment sessions.

What are the limitations of transpersonal therapy?

There is some research on the effectiveness of transpersonal therapy, but empirical support for this therapy approach is sparse. It does not have the robust evidence base of other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy.
