About me
I offer mindfulness-based psychotherapy, with a warm and non-judging approach, for people who are experiencing anxiety, panic, depression, bipolar conditions, post-traumatic stress, infertility, attention deficit conditions, and people with pain and/or other chronic medical conditions.
Sessions involve mostly talking therapy, with a mind-body approach. They may also include (depending on your needs and interests): breathing & body sensation awareness practices; emotional regulation & distress tolerance training; gentle yoga and meditation; mindful self-compassion, acceptance, gratitude, and loving-kindness practices; and interactive guided imagery.
Psychotherapy, consultation, and/or classes are available, depending on your preferences and needs. Sessions last 60 minutes. Mentoring for MBSR instructors are also available.
Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) programs: I teach and have taught courses for the Palo Alto Medical Foundation, Google, Inc., Apple, Inc.
