Areas of Practice
Anxiety
“You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.” ― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
Anxiety is a natural part of life. When anxiety is proportional and in balance, it functions as a vital messenger. Unfortunately, it has become quite easy in today’s fast paced society for anxiety to become a powerful and damaging force in people’s lives. We work to untangle the roots of anxiety, develop skills in mindfulness and create personalized adaptations that can help bring these forces back into balance.
“I understand your pain. Trust me, I do. I’ve seen people go from the darkest moments in their lives to living a happy, fulfilling life. You can do it too. I believe in you. You are not a burden. You will NEVER BE a burden.” —Sophie Turner
Depression can be utterly debilitating to people’s lives and all too often, it can remain hidden from those around you. In my work, I have come to understand depression as an individuals energy spiraling almost perpetually inwards. We become disconnected from the natural world that we are interdependent with. It takes a great deal of energy to change the inertia of this spiraling, energy which can be quite difficult to find. We will work together to find the energy you need to begin to spiral outward into the world again.
Depression
Trauma
“As long as you keep secrets and suppress information, you are fundamentally at war with yourself…The critical issue is allowing yourself to know what you know. That takes an enormous amount of courage.” ― Bessel A. van der Kolk
Trauma can manifest itself to look like nearly any mental illness in one’s life. We first must create a space in which you feel safe. Then we can begin the gentle work of telling your story.
I work with guided meditation techniques such as Yoga Nidra to help you find this sense of safety in your heart and begin to reconnect with your physical body. Trauma often results in a “freeze” response that can make us feel perpetually trapped. The challenging work of unfreezing often leads to the individual finding love and forgiveness for themselves.
