About My Clients
Clients are surprised about the effects of participating in open dialogue about their complex Self. Being welcomed with abundant positive regard and acceptance the first session tends to ease the path towards change. Learning about and examining alternative approaches to current circumstance includes laughter as well as insight. Becoming empowered to live a more full and authentic life may not be your goal. Your sessions will be tailored around the goals you identify or your current challenges.
My Background and Approach
Some sessions will be just talk therapy, while other sessions I will involve you in guided mindfulness meditation, building self-awareness, the “HOW” stuff of life (things folks tell you to do and don’t bother proving the instructions for), coping skills education and practice, and more. Intentional Alternatives’s methods combines “talk” therapy with evidence based treatment modalities to address an array of challenges, which may involve emotional struggles, perfectionism, trauma, anxiety, depression and interpersonal issues. You will learn more about your SELF and gain clarity about reactivity to your life circumstances. You may decide along the way to choose to engage in more Intentional Living.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am a licensed professional counselor, an expressive and creative therapist, with a sense of humor. Above all of the roles I have in this life, first, I am a "hue-woman being." I would prefer a world where each individual accepts self as complex and multi-facted and recognizes the same within others. I am dedicated to supporting others to practice Radically Acceptance, through the practice of mindfulness, open thinking and ethical action. I value Transparency, Clarity, Acceptance, Reciprocity, Harmony, Balance and Peace.
