About My Clients
My ideal client is an individual who is open and committed to awakening, healing, and personal growth and is oftentimes seeking greater meaning and purpose in life. Some are struggling in a relationship, challenged by a major life transition, or burdened by anxiety. Others are derailed by depression, grieving a loss, craving a career pivot, or searching for ways to spark their creativity. In any case, my clients want to feel empowered to create more freedom, flow, and vitality in their lives.
My Background and Approach
As your therapist, I can offer a calm presence, listening, empathy, insights, acceptance, and sensitivity coupled with gentle guidance that draws on nearly six decades of my own life lessons and experiences as well what I’ve learned from others. Working together, you can count on a safe space to pause, reflect, and call forth your natural strengths, innate wisdom, and deep-rooted resilience in the pursuit of positive change, inner peace, and passionate living. Using an existential approach to therapy that primarily integrates mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral interventions taken from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as well as insights from The Enneagram, we will mindfully connect with the present, seek understanding, cultivate acceptance, ponder empowering perspectives, explore new possibilities, clarify what’s important to you, and do what matters. Over time, you can trust your relationship with yourself, others, and life will begin to shift.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I know change is possible; I see it in my clients' lives every day. I also believe your journey to greater fulfillment in life will – unavoidably and in time -- ask for your willingness, courage, and vulnerability coupled with an unwavering commitment to the pursuit of your true potential at a pace that’s just right for you. This endeavor is not one you must go alone. There is not only the enlivening sense of connection that comes from receiving support, but also the gradual emergence of an authentic, wholehearted way of being and a more gratifying experience of life, despite its inevitable changes and challenges. As a deeply devoted student of life, I enjoy yoga, meditation, studying the Enneagram, and exploring Mindfulness and Spirituality. In my free time, I value shared experiences with family and friends, spending time in nature, and recharging in calm, quiet spaces. While I am grateful for all my roles in life, my most cherished role is being a therapist.
