Learn to treat yourself with the same kindness you so easily extend to others! You may have previously examined your childhood issues in therapy yet still struggle with your self-esteem. You may judge yourself harshly, placing your needs last. You may experience difficulties in relationships or dealing with painful transitions, or feel you have lost your sense of self. My nearly 20 years as a Clinician coupled with advanced training allows me to work with you on a meaningful and compassionate level you have not experienced previously. Learn to appreciate your sensitivities and vulnerabilities as strengths, not weaknesses.

What is a “mindful parent,” exactly? A mindful parent is the one that asks: how do I know that what I am doing is preparing my child mentally and emotionally for an increasingly complex future? How do I optimize the relationship I have with them right now to better ensure they become an adult that is empowered not entitled, self-reliant and compassionate, curious, and competent in a world of increasing artifice? Those are great questions and, luckily, we have the answers. Developmental research has identified ways you can enhance the parent-child relationship to prepare your child for a more secure, autonomous adulthood.

The suffering we experience is so personal we tend not to want to share it. How can we open up about something that shakes us so? How can we bring someone into our pain? Psychotherapy, as I practice, is a gentle and respectful way that you can begin to approach changing those things that burden you. I provide a safe, trusting relationship where you are able to learn to comfortably live life again.

Does your child struggle to make or keep friends? Does he or she feel uncomfortable or anxious in social settings? Do they have difficulties communicating with others in person or using electronic communication appropriately?

I utilize a holistic and body-based approach to healing complex trauma, internal conflict and domestic or religious abuse. My clients often come to me being very insightful on their feelings yet finding themselves stuck in shame or unrelenting self-criticism. Often they feel stuck in conflict in a cycle of wanting to create change while wanting to stay safe in the chaos they know. If this sounds like you, I am here to help you foster curiosity and compassion for inner healing.
