Seek holistic well-being, personal growth, and lasting change? As a Marriage and Family Therapist, my unique approach blends systems thinking, Zen Buddhism, and cybernetic wisdom. I believe in transformation through understanding interconnected systems. We shift from working against ourselves to working with ourselves, and from battling circumstances to embracing them. My approach resonates with those who are ready to embrace personal accountability and who seek to explore the depths of their inner worlds. It's for individuals, couples, and families who are open to transforming their relationships and lives through a non-judgmental, holistic, and systemic approach. What sets me apart as a therapist is my commitment to providing a non-judgmental, blame-free space that fosters self-discovery and growth. I draw from Zen Buddhism, channeling the wisdom of luminaries like Alan Watts, to help clients find peace and mindfulness in their journey.

- With therapists: $100-300
