Why do you use mindfulness/ yogic strategies?

Eastern and South Asian practices such as Mindfulness are helpful in teaching us to become more aware of both our internal and external experiences. Ultimately, the best positive behavior changes happen when we are fully aware of our experience as this what allows us to begin to make a difference.

Where are you located?

Are remote services right for me?

It depends on your specific needs.

Remote support may require a higher level of dedication, and communication, in order to see effective results.

Do you provide psychotherapy?

I am not a psychotherapist and therefore do not provide psychotherapy services.

For very specific mental health concerns I recommend seeking advice from a mental health counselor or clinical psychologist.

How often will I need sessions?
