Deepening Awareness
My practice is about helping you develop insight you can use to make meaningful changes in your life. Many of my clients grew up in families where the hidden rule was "don't talk, don't trust, don't feel." This leads to a life full of internal pain. Efforts to control and avoid internal pain lead to feeling tired, overwhelmed, and trapped. I work to help you develop more skillful ways of managing your life, Sometimes I might offer you concrete suggestions or "homework." Sometimes I will simply reflect on what is coming up in our work together. Ultimately my goal is to be a wise and benevolent presence as you work through your own understanding and acceptance of what IS and to help you find ways to live a life you cherish and respect.
