Who I Work With

HELPING YOU ACHIEVE PROFOUND CHANGE THROUGH AWARENESS

I work with people who want more from life —more peace, more happiness, more success —but can't figure out why it always feels just out of reach. I help you uncover what's holding you back and guide you toward a deeper connection with your true self, free of old patterns that no longer serve you.

My Mindfulness-Based Approach

A Compassionate Path to Emotional Release

Compassion is integral to this practice. Compassion for yourself, and compassion for others. We proceed through each session and through each week at your pace. You will learn to become a comforting presence for yourself as you learn to stay with difficult emotions. As you build trust in yourself, you will open to an awareness that has been lying dormant while you did your best to avoid feeling what you’ve really needed to feel to move forward.

My Journey and Experience

I came to this practice after decades struggling with many of the same challenges my clients face. I felt perpetually stuck and powerless-trapped in relentless worry, low self-esteem, dread, and self-attack.

My low point came in 2017. After losing a deal, I spiraled into harsh self-judgment and wrote what became a vicious letter to myself— arguing that self-harm might be the best option. I didn't go down that path, but it shook me deeply.

Years later, during Covid, I came across an interview with Sister Dang Nghiem. Her words sparked something in me and inspired the beginnings of what became a new kind of practice for me — a compassionate, focused way of facing, rather than avoiding, difficult emotions.

In both careers, I focused on helping people move beyond obstacles and into their potential. Yet it wasn’t until I fully integrated mindfulness that I discovered the key to true emotional freedom—both for myself and for others. Today, I guide clients through the practice of sitting with their emotions, identifying old thought patterns, and letting go of what no longer serves them.

I’ve had the privilege of working with clients struggling with anxiety, overthinking, and self-defeating behaviors. My practice focuses on using mindfulness to create real, lasting transformation. This work is deeply fulfilling—not only for me, but for the clients I help to find peace and clarity.

By learning to stay present with my emotions and building trust in myself to explore them, I was able to trace them back to their roots in childhood. Understanding their origins, and how subtly they had shaped my identity, allowed me to begin releasing those thoughts and emotions that no longer supported the life I want to live.

My practice is deeply rooted in this lived experience, and it's what allows me to guide clients toward real emotional freedom, clarity, and joy.

What Clients Are Saying

"Prior to this work, when I’d have negative feelings, I’d immediately act so that I wouldn’t feel that discomfort anymore, moving away from that space as quickly as possible. I now can give myself time which allows more nuance in naming what I am feeling, then deciding if it is relevant, or just a learned reaction to situations from my past."

VP

"At work, I’ve been able to be less reactive. I’m also able to take some time to sit with feelings that come up when I am praised or supported. In the past I would brush these moments aside quickly because of the discomfort I would feel when given positive feedback or compliments. Now I allow myself time to feel appreciated and happy before moving onto the next task in my day."

“I am now able to feel my emotions, let them expand, but not overwhelm me. I can acknowledge them, but not panic. This is better than any therapy I’ve ever had. So, so grateful.”

M.S.
,

"I didn’t realize how much I encroached on other people’s experiences with their feelings in the effort to make them feel better – to move them away from frustration, pain, depression to a lighter place of being, because it made me feel better. Now I try to acknowledge and sit with them in their feelings, instead of trying to cheer them up, give suggestions of what to do differently, or move them along quickly through this uncomfortable space."

"I really have been able to consciously incorporate this practice into my interactions with my adult children, and I think it goes a long way towards positively reinforcing and strengthening those relationships."
