"Whatever we think we believe. Whatever we believe becomes reality. Whatever is our reality becomes the basis for our hopes, fears and choices." Dhammapada. Sometimes the first step in improving our life situation is asking for help. But once that first step is taken, even if it is taken out of desperation, our willingness to make changes can lead to lives filled with hope, joy and peace. My experience is with individuals who experience a variety of life problems, particularly addiction; the issues that arise from addiction and those that led to addiction. These issues may include losses, trauma, past/current abuse, homelessness, joblessness, depression and anxiety as well as a general inability to cope with what life is like for you now. Developing a therapeutic relationship is key. I believe that listening with an empathetic ear is a skill I can bring to whatever mode of treatment works best for you.
