You’ll discover compassion for your disliked parts while building rituals that connect you to meaning, creativity, and/or spirituality.
Despite living a life that looks stable and successful, you lack direction, and so you fear for your future. You feel rudderless, like you’ve lost yourself along the way. You live a lifestyle that looks ideal to others, yet it hasn’t brought you the meaning and joy it was supposed to. Now, difficult thoughts and emotions become more present: isolation, distraction, and anxiety. Spectral questions resurface: “Who am I?” “What’s the point of all this?” “What direction is our society headed in?” You know you need to reconnect with yourself and get grounded, but how?

Certificates include Oncology Social Work; Amma (Oriental Massage) and Embodyment Therapy (Body-Dialoguing); and as a mentee of Richard Moss, MD (spirituality/consciousness).
Pain seeks our attention. Emotional distress manifests or "speaks" through physical distress. Adults living with physical or emotional pain can benefit from BODY-CENTERED psychotherapy. Sessions can include BODYWORK. Dreamwork and expressive therapies can also be utilized to amplify awareness. Like dreams, body symptoms are dynamic conduits into the unconscious; likewise, they serve as messengers charged with waking us up and redirecting our energies back toward life. Clients become adept explorers, listeners & learners, moving with curiosity toward rather than away from feeling, as they befriend disenfranchised parts of themselves.

Have you tried therapy in the past or been in therapy and feel you've gone as far as you can? I have found this to be true for many people who are looking to go deeper, looking for more meaning and purpose and feel a desire to cultivate a relationship with their inner wisdom. Perhaps a different approach may help. I offer therapy which is a combination of traditional modalities such as CBT and trauma informed work and also, if you wish, the use of the tools of the ancient wisdom traditions to provide a deeper connection to self.

With an emphasis on wisdom, I want to help you reach your dreams, avoid some of the foolish pitfalls of life, and help you through those pitfalls if you do fall into them. I've created “The Sharp Club” for you. The club is designed to help you look after your own life so that you can be as sharp as you need to be- with yourself, for yourself, and with and for others.

It’s said that recovery is an inside job. We begin by distancing ourselves from the destructive forces that are bent on killing us—if you understand what I’m talking about you’re in the right place. Once addiction loses its grip on us we gain the freedom to access our own inner wisdom and let life’s challenges become our teachers. Free from the influence of mood and mind altering substances we become empowered to make choices not based on the immediate need to escape our emotions, but rather aligned with our deepest desires for ourselves. Through this process you can begin to re-write the narrative of your past.

"Get busy living, or get busy dying." If you haven't seen Shawshank Redemption, maybe you should. Maybe it's just me, but reading all the profiles here seems a bit tedious since we are all essentially saying the same things. As an Army Veteran and a solution-focused pragmatist, I like to cut to the chase. The bottom line is that we've ALL survived something in our lives and fall into one of two basic categories; either those who just don't die or those who come back to living. So which category are you in?

Spirituality Therapists

What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?

Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.

What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?

There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualization, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.

Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?

Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.

How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?

​​Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
