Approach to Treatment

I emphasize a collaborative therapeutic relationship. I focus on the interplay between the body, mind, a persons lived experience, and their personal psychology. I have a strong therapeutic interest in background in mindfulness and buddhist practices. Our initial evaluation will focus on a comprehensive evaluation of the challenges in your life, examining potential aspects of your physical health, your development, and your current lifestyle that may get in the way of your goals.
