My favorite all-time bumper sticker: Don't Believe Everything You Think! Obviously, everyone has problems in life, but both sages and scientists have discovered that how we think about our problems is a crucial variable in whether we grow through difficulties (past or present), or get mired in difficult emotions and unhelpful behavior patterns. While we all have unique histories and personalities, what leads to healing and change generally applies to all of us. But more than ever, we are living on "autopilot," and just trying to keep up. All the while, our busy minds provide a running commentary, often full of fear and criticism.
Independent of diagnosis, counseling can be more than mere symptom relief. It is an opportunity to flip off autopilot, befriend our minds, cultivate emotional intelligence and better habits. We can develop "new lenses," through which to consciously observe our experiences with less reactivity, and move toward what we most value in life. Simple. Not easy.
Combining neuroscience and evidence-based methods, I help clients increase awareness, heal from past wounds, and access their innate strengths. My clients leave empowered, with specific tools that reshape how their brains and minds work. They make room for thoughts, are better at coping with inevitable ups and downs, and have more freedom on their paths.
