About:  As a therapist, I strive to guide my clients not only to deeper self-awareness and resilience, but to the ultimate goal of realizing a new relationship with human experience itself. In a world that seemingly requires us to constantly do, we often forget how to simply be, and miss out on the natural peace and wisdom that can only be found in this state. Through regular practice of this deeper state of awareness, the way in which we experience and react to ourselves, others, and events in our lives will naturally begin to change. Through self-exploration and the practice of mindfulness, I hope to foster in my clients greater self-awareness, self-compassion, self-love, trust in oneself, acceptance of reality as it is, and commitment to active change. My work as a therapist is guided by theories of mindfulness, existentialism, ecopsychology, and a healthy dose of cognitive behavioral theory.
