If you work with me, you will find that I am warm, receptive, and engaging. I will offer practical tools and new ways of thinking that you can use right away to cope with the present and make plans for the future. In therapy with me you will increase your ability to feel and regulate your emotions and learn to recognize and disengage from harmful ways of thinking and acting that may be getting in the way of feeling agency, choice, and engagement in your life.
I work from a mindfulness informed perspective rooted in my own history of practicing and teaching yoga and meditation for over 15 years. I draw on strengths and compassion focussed therapies, attachment theory, and an understanding of trauma and its effects on the body. I attend psychotherapy myself and support my work in peer supervision groups. I am trained in systemic anti-oppressive modalities and I come from a family of lumberjacks, nurses, and nuns and work well with issues of class. I also had the lucky chance to study philosophy and art history and I engage in my own art practice in ceramics when I am not brambling about in the woods.
I am regularly inspired by the ways that people I meet find agency in their lives and solve problems that at first felt insurmountable to them. I look forward to meeting you and finding out how I might support you in doing the same.
