About

As a Contemplative Psychotherapist, I see psychological growth through a Buddhist lens. It’s possible to summarize that view as the movement toward authenticity, growing through versions of self that no longer feel genuine. In Buddhism that movement often starts with 'samvega': the realization that grooved cycles of suffering no longer serve us. We might ask ourselves: What makes me vulnerable to such cycles? How and when were the tracks laid down? In such a movement, we are 'waking up out of,' so it’s the energy of wakefulness that’s active in us. Wakefulness might be the energy motivating you now to to seek out a therapist. View 5 Photos My style is collaborative: I share what I’m thinking, feeling, and formulating and invite reflection, reinterpretation, and pushback. In facilitating the process of 'waking up out of,' I draw from and employ the ideas and techniques of Buddhist psychology, Jungian psychology, Gestalt, Internal Family Systems, Hakomi, CBT, DBT, and EMDR.
