We can figure this out. If you’re feeling tired, fearful, and disconnected, and your current way of living isn’t working, my approach to therapy will help. A lot of our suffering comes from hard to control, negative thoughts about ourselves and the world that got ingrained in us as we grew up. Often, we don’t even notice what’s keeping us trapped, and it’s tough to know exactly what to do to get out of a rut.
I’ve worked with hundreds of people whose lives felt unsustainable and unfulfilling, helping them find the best versions of themselves. This isn't about making small tweaks; it's about real transformation. The life you really want for yourself is a lot closer than you think, but the road there isn’t always obvious on your own.
Together, we’ll use evidence-based techniques, philosophy, Buddhism, Stoicism, Mindfulness, the science of the mind-body connection, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to find some peace of mind. This isn’t just about self-improvement; it’s a profound awakening, free from the negative thoughts and feelings that have held you back.
