By approaching your situation from a psychological, physiological and transpersonal perspective, there will be a greater chance that you will feel better sooner. If you're motivated to work beyond our sessions together, I can provide you "homework" to do to facilitate faster change.

Therapy is a collaborative effort between therapist and client and must be enjoyable. Even difficult transitional moments can be easier if you have the right guide.

Holistic Psychotherapy

My approach to therapy is eclectic. I'm not committed to using any particular theory or set of techniques all the time, but call on my extensive training, experience, and intuition for what is appropriate at any particular moment, always in full collaboration with my client.

Underlying my philosophy is my belief that a fully realized life is constantly renewed in the struggle to balance and integrate many dimensions: body, emotions, mind, and spirit. Sometimes we reach an impasse, and need to reach out for help. A caring relationship is the most effective crucible for change. That relationship may be with a trusted friend, mentor, spiritual advisor, or, at times, a counselor.

I believe that we all have a unique inner healer that is the source of our growth, and that it cannot be forced, or “figured out” rationally. It comes alive in the moments when we surrender control over how we think we should be, and contact what we are truly meant to be, and then act from that.

I have a special interest in combining psychology with the traditions of mindfulness. I have found, in his my life, and that of my clients, that non-judgmental mindful awareness is the first step toward meaningful change. When we fully accept what is, paradoxically that is when change is most likely to occur.
