I specialize in treating depression and anxiety disorders (including OCD, generalized anxiety disorder, panic, and social anxiety) as well as insomnia, relationship/marital issues, weight issues, and coping with chronic illness (e.g., heart disease, cancer and cancer recovery) and pain. I have extensive training and expertise in both cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) and interweave these approaches to help individuals explore the inner workings of the mind while also facilitating change in a warm and supportive environment.
My treatment approach is best suited for people who would like to better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and how these contribute to the problems for which they are seeking treatment. My aim is to help clients cope better with life's difficulties while fully experiencing joy and satisfaction.
I have been teaching mindfulness skills for daily life as well as for anxiety, depression, and chronic illness, for many years. Mindfulness skills greatly enhance our ability to tolerate uncontrollable stressors, experience joy, and make wise decisions and act effectively to improve our lives - in short, it can be transformational.
