About
Even when we recognize that some of our emotional pain is unnecessary, it can still be challenging to understand why we experience this extra suffering and how to alleviate it. Anxiety, depression, trauma reactivation, relationship difficulties, and unhealthy coping strategies are common responses to life experiences and circumstances. Do they need to hurt so and are we stuck with them? Therapy is a great place to gain perspective on what you can change. Also, to widen the horizon from managing pain to living more fully like yourself and to thriving. Because, as Thich Nhat Hanh said, "suffering is not enough". As your therapist, I am willing to walk alongside you: to see what you see, have your back while you explore, and figure out what your pain responds well to. My practice grounds in Buddhist psychology, anti-oppression, and somatic-relational approaches. I also draw from different toolboxes, such as CBT/DBT and motivational interviewing. I believe that you, not theory, are the organizing principle of your healing and growth! Would you like to get a sense of what it would be like to work together? I offer a free 20-minute consultation to explore fit and any questions you might have.
