DepressionIf you’re suffering from poor concentration, lack of sleep, poor appetite, or unexplained back pain, you may be suffering from depression. If you’re feeling overwhelmed with life’s challenges and you feel you just can’t dig yourself out of the rut you’re in, I can help you recognize the source of your emotional pain and help you manage the different areas causing you distress. Tackling areas one at a time can sometimes help you see that it’s not as overwhelming as you originally thought. Together we can formulate a plan of self-care, regular exercise, healthy diet, adequate sleep and mind-body techniques to get you back on track. A regular routine in combination with CBT therapy is the best evidence based treatment for depression.

BreathworkBreathwork is a modality that has been around for thousands of years. Many different cultures use it in different forms to help expand consciousness and release the body of accumulated stress and trauma. Stanislav Grof, a psychiatrist from Czechoslovakia came to the United States in the 1950s to help with the experimentation of psychedelic assisted therapy with LSD. When the program was shut down by the government, he discovered that the people involved in the study would spontaneously breathe a different way to continue their journey. He started Holotropic Breathwork at the Esalen Institute and continued his research and wrote many books on the power of the breath to expand awareness and heal trauma. But how can our conscious expand if it is held back by fear? The nervous system must be calm, open and relaxed to be connected to vastness of consciousness. To embody this open posture, we must do the inner work, confront the shadows within, and release the tightness, fear, and trauma stored in our bodies.
For our spirit to fully express itself—to feel safe, vulnerable, and uninhibited—we must embark on a journey of deeper self-discovery, exploring the void within. This exploration can be done by simply breathing through the mouth at an accelerated rate for a period of time listening to some cool music and embarking on a wonderfully vast journey of bliss and peace. I am happy to guide you through this experience in the comfort of your own home. You just need a computer, internet and a pair of good headphones. |
