As a Heart-Centered, Mindfulness-based counselor, one of my goals is to help those I am privileged to work with, gain conscious awareness and consequently a new perspective of their lives and themselves as they currently are. Learning to view challenges as opportunities for personal growth and learning to accept "what is" in life, rather than resist, are core principles that I help facilitate my client's awareness of. The results are usually beneficial, as they decrease the amount of our internal suffering and increase inner harmony. And, since our outer experience reflects our inner reality, the benefits can also effect what and how we manifest outwardly in our lives. I specialize in working with those whose perfectionistic standards and many "shoulds" in life have caused them to judge themselves harshly, resulting in behavior patterns and emotional turmoil that have thwarted their happiness. Some treatment specialization areas I have focused on in my practice are: Healing: depression; anxiety; relationship issues; low self-esteem; addictions; co-dependency, etc. Also, marriage and couples counseling, personal growth, anger management, stress management, parental support, grief counseling, etc.
