Wellness through Balance

Creating balance in one’s life is an important step toward feeling not just better, but well and whole. This starts with considering the most basic elements: sleep, nutrition, exercise, work, social and spiritual life. Creating balance and harmony among these important elements leads to a happier and more peaceful existence.

Another crucial step is learning to care for yourself gently and well and treating yourself with the deep compassion usually reserved for others. Having learned and used many therapy techniques over the years, I help clients develop individualized strategies so they can live with more joy, peace and connection to others and the world around them.
