About

I have observed that the patients I care for struggle with the very things that make us human, namely difficult thoughts, belief, feelings, and moods and the inner conflict these create. Ultimately we are all looking to feel comfortable in our own skin, fulfilled in our relationships and lead happy, satisfying lives no matter what is going on. The path forward often includes a deep acceptance, not necessarily agreement, of the barriers interfering with life satisfaction and create space for creatively responding to it with new beliefs. As an experienced practitioner of eastern meditative traditions and a fellow human who has walked the road less travelled, we explore your inner world using approaches to increase psychological flexibility. By transforming one's relationship with said thoughts and feelings, space is created to traverse the often tumultuous waters of human experience. Whatever your challenge, a path forward across these waters exists. Together we partner in finding that path through the creation of a field of mutual experience where trust, connection, understanding, and ultimately more freedom can be cultivated to lead you to the other shore.
