I work with folks who experience anxiety, depression, mood swings, who feel like they don't fit in and are exhausted trying to maintain perfection in every area of life. We nurture self-awareness, compassion and acceptance, while trying out small, incremental, sustainable changes that support wellness and wholeness. You can expect gradual lifting of symptoms, early success in moving towards goals. We start with what's what for you, in the here and now. We move at your pace and really listen, without rushing forward, until you feel ready. We practice knowing you in your uniqueness without worrying about conforming to unreal expectations. The therapeutic work consists of a collaborative, practical, organic process in a caring, nonjudgmental space. Together, we commit to nurturing your personal growth and self-understanding. We create a safe, grounded environment for you to experience your authentic self, thoughts, feelings. We seek to identify and expand your support network, and concentrate on practicing healthy self-care and self-kindness. We work on practical solutions and small sustainable steps.
