My APPROAch
Learn to heal and thrive despite social barriers.
It takes a lot of courage to work on healing ourselves. I believe healing is possible even if the only thing we can change is our perspective on what is happening. New possibilities emerge and we feel more free to take steps towards fulfilling our dreams.
I’m happy to connect with you to see if I can be of assistance on your path and wish you the best on your healing journey.

Mentorship in Buddhist Psychology
Many of the evidence based practices in Western Psychology are informed by Buddhist teachings. For those interested in learning more or deepening their practice beyond mindfulness, please feel free to reach out to see how I can be of support.
Examples:
- Integrating Buddhist Psychology for clinicians and other healers.
- Mentorship and coaching to support practice integration in daily life.
- Collaboration on projects that promote community well being for
marginalized groups, particularly immigrant and other BIPOC people,
queer and trans communities, and people living with disabilities.
