Happiness is your natural birthright.

Therapy is a sacred space and a unique relationship, and offers hope and healing for those who are carrying pain in their heart, their psyche and their soul. It takes courage to enter that space for the grace of healing to occur, so I am committed to establishing a sense of safety for clients.  I partner with clients in what is often a very difficult period in their lives, and combine confidential verbal counseling with instruction in the simple healing techniques of Kundalini yoga and meditation. This empowers clients to heal themselves and truly claim their happiness through their therapeutic work.

This approach is especially effective for clients who are:

  • Seeking alternatives to pharmaceutical treatments for anxiety and depression
  • Have extra-sensitive constitutions, esp. with history of abuse or trauma
  • In recovery from substance abuse and are hesitant to begin pharmaceutical treatment
  • Motivated to work their way off of a medication
  • Continuing on a medication, these techniques can complement that treatment (with monitoring)
  • Experiencing treatment-resistant depression (when several different medications have been prescribed and depression is still present) 
  • Searching for a sense of destiny and purpose in life
  • Looking to become more creative

Clients typically make long-term lifestyle changes that promote well-being and enjoy more satisfying, conscious relationships. 

I consider it a privilege to sit with clients in the sacred space of psychotherapy.

I await your call, you deserve the help and healing.
