You are not alone

When we experience anxiety, depression or other emotional conflicts,
the most common reaction is to resist or avoid. Most people will do
anything to not feel discomfort. But, unless feelings are experienced
openly and with full awareness, they go “underground,” obstruct full
expression and drain vitality. In order to flourish, you must face
painful feelings and heed their message. These feelings are often wakeup
calls that can help you integrate the previously unaddressed parts of
yourself. When you develop this awareness, you can realize your full
potential and live in your wholeness.

In safe, nonjudgmental
individual therapy sessions, I will support you in opening to the
difficult aspects of your life. Through a process of awareness and
acceptance, I can help you transform anxiety into peacefulness, anger
into resoluteness, fear into fearlessness and sadness into compassion.
Through sessions, you can also begin to realize that there is not – nor
has there ever been – anything wrong with you. There were only things
that you were told and then believed that made you think that you were
less than whole. Through various forms of spiritual therapy and more
traditional psychodynamic approaches, I can help you see, accept and let
go of your perceived deficiencies and complexes so that you can connect
to the radiance of your essential nature.

In adult counseling
sessions, we’ll also explore and dispel unproductive mindsets. You can
begin to realize that all that happens is essentially out of your
control, which can elicit relief and a sense of freedom. I’ll encourage
you to take responsibility for you life; however, once you understand
that was has happened, is happening and will happen in your life could
not have happened or will not happen any other way, you can let of
guilt, shame, anxiety and fear. Once we break down your stories and
fears, you can begin to learn healthy ways to express yourself. You can
experience situations, rather than act out or withdraw. You can turn
complaints into requests. You can reframe how you talk to yourself and
others and quell self-created, unproductive misconceptions about who you
are.

With the help of a compassionate, skilled therapist and an
effective approach to healing, it’s possible to feel more fulfilled,
shift out of negative thinking and accept yourself and your experience
completely. There’s no need to continue suffering. Once you accept and
let go, you create space for positive change. By fully embracing your
emotions and experience, pain can dissipate. You can cultivate a sense
of ease, enjoy peacefulness and live a life of joy.
