Authentic connection gives our lives meaning, but relationships are often difficult to navigate. Do you struggle with relationships? Find it difficult to know what you really want, and even harder to communicate it to others? Do you work so hard to keep everyone else happy that you feel disconnected from your own needs? It’s frustrating when your boundaries feel like lines in the sand—easily erased by demanding partners, bosses, colleagues, even friends. Is past trauma impacting your ability to connect in the present? For over 20 years, I’ve helped people just like you forge fulfilling relationships with others and with themselves.

Brainwashed by our pain-avoidant culture, our egos try to boss our minds, bodies and souls around. “Quit crying.” “Get over it already.” But society's push to hurry up and get over it is inadvertently creating a pain paradox; people are being forced to try to “heal” in the trappings of shameful isolation. But if we still ourselves and allow our deepest, truest inner voice to be heard over the ego’s tyrannical whispers, we will come to realize that human suffering is NORMAL and not something to get over. Pain, no matter how subtle or severe, is a form of energy that demands to be acknowledged, befriended and even accomodated.

There are times in life where we feel stuck. Maybe you are going through a transition, such as kids growing up, marriage is struggling or has ended, job issues, or a recent relocation. Or maybe you don't understand why you are feeling the way you do, yet the sadness or anxiety persists. Still, other times we know exactly why we are sad, disappointed, or lonely and we need someone to process it with. If you are suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, grief, or life transitions, therapy can be beneficial for you. Using talk therapy or Brainspotting, you can begin to experience healing.

Bringing home a new baby is a time filled with joy and happiness, but for some reason you don't feel that way, and find yourself feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, irritated, your mind is filled with scary thoughts, or worry that something bad may happen to your baby. Maybe you haven't shared these thoughts with anyone else for fear of judgment or that someone will take your baby away or think you're not fit to be a mother. All of these unwanted thoughts and feelings leave you wondering if you will ever feel yourself again and find relief.

How does mindfulness-based cognitive therapy work?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy originated in the work of John Kabat-Zinn of the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He developed mindfulness-based stress reduction, which is a technique found in yoga and meditation. MBCT is a combination of this type of stress reduction and cognitive behavioral therapy; it essentially quiets emotional distress through mindfulness, utilizing proper breathing and meditation. These techniques aim to bring the individual into the present moment when in a state of distress.
When do I know if I need treatment with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
If an individual’s mind is filled with emotional distress and general negativity, the person may feel trapped. A mindfulness-based cognitive therapist can help a person change their thinking patterns as well as their behavior through calm acceptance and compassion. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.
What should I expect from mindfulness-based cognitive therapy?
This therapy often takes place in group sessions. A therapist will work with the group as well as with each individual. Meditation and breathing exercises are core practices that aim to invite inquiry and discovery into a person’s troubled mental state. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviors and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more realistic way. This therapy is supportive, accepting, and warm.
Is mindfulness-based cognitive therapy effective?
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with major depressive disorder have benefitted from this type of therapy; the person accepts their distressed thoughts and also moves into healthier patterns of thinking. This therapy also aims to move an individual away from automatic negative responses. This type of therapy can bring a person lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioral habits.
