I use an eclectic approach (psychodynamic, narrative, cognitive-behavioral), psycho-education (bibliotherapy) and mindfulness to help clients deal with difficult transitions and relational dynamics.

Mindfulness can be learned and there are two types of mindfulness training: formal and informal practice. Formal mindfulness practice involves setting aside a specific amount of time, usually thirty minutes or longer, to consciously “go inside” and be aware of what is sensed or felt in the mind and or body, using the breath as an anchor.

While the concept of mindfulness is rather simple, its benefits are powerful and far-reaching. Mindfulness has been used in both monastic and secular settings for over 2,500 years.
