I offer mental health counseling using an experiential, body-centered approach. I work with people who are tired of the way things have been and are looking for meaningful change in their lives. While a review of the past can be a important starting point for change, insight gained in this way is not always enough. Using a mindfulness-based, experiential approach, I assist people to examine the way that less than satisfying patterns and beliefs have affected their lives and then move beyond them; building on existing strengths and discovering new choices. With a background in naturopathic medicine and midwifery and with more than fifteen years of experience as a health care provider, I have a deep understanding of the interplay between mental/emotional and physical health. I work with people who are dedicated to living more satisfying lives at home, in their close relationships, in their parenting, and in their work, but are looking for the tools to help them get there. I see my role as a therapist as midwifing people toward emotional well being.
