Are you seeking a life that feels more joyful, connected and in-control? With the right support, you can be happier, more deeply connected to yourself and other people, and gain control over extreme emotions or behaviors. In my practice, I encourage patients to investigate thought patterns, engage in mindful exercises and explore ways of knowing which access the unconscious. My approach is warm, open and practical and geared towards helping you deepen self-awareness and self-knowing. Whatever your personal goal is, we can work on it together.
While I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Focusing, Mindfulness, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), and EMDR, I believe no single modality/theoretical approach is the key to successful change. A trusting and engaged relationship between therapist and patient can provide a safe environment for exploration and change.
My practice, Middle Way Psychotherapy was founded around the buddhist concept of "The Middle Way", an enlightened state which avoids the extremes of self-denial and self-indulgence and leads to personal happiness. My practice integrates this concept into psychotherapy, supervision services and continuing education for therapists.
