My Approach

I believe that many of our personal struggles arise from anxieties related to the fragile nature of life and our desire to understand our place in this world. I will work collaboratively with you to explore how your beliefs about the world, human nature, and the purpose of your existence influence your daily functioning, as well as how best to proceed with any new insights and effectively cope with whatever life throws at you!
