Mindfulness-Based Therapy

At the heart of healing is self-understanding—and mindfulness is a powerful modality for building awareness of yourself. Mindfulness asks you to pay attention to what is, with curiosity and nonjudgment. This practice leads to both a deepening understanding of your patterns and a way of thinking that can reduce suffering.

This approach can be especially helpful if you find yourself on autopilot, making decisions that don’t align with your values, or feeling disconnected from your emotions. Mindfulness helps you notice the stories you tell yourself and operate from a place of deep intention and connection.

What is Mindfulness-based Therapy?

Mindfulness-based therapy integrates present-moment awareness into the therapeutic process. You learn how to observe your thoughts, feelings, and body sensations with gentle curiosity instead of judgment. Over time, this strengthens emotional regulation, clarity, and resilience.

Is Mindfulness right for you?

This approach may resonate if you:

  • Feel emotionally reactive or burnt out

  • Struggle to slow down or rest

  • Notice tension between what you do and what you value

  • Often feel disconnected from your body or emotions

  • Want to become more intentional in how you respond to life

How I Use Mindfulness in Therapy

In our work together, mindfulness might include:

  • Guided grounding or breathing exercises

  • Slowing down to notice emotion-body connections

  • Recognizing the internal "shoulds" that drive overfunctioning

  • Using present-moment awareness to reconnect to your needs

Mindfulness is never about perfection. It's about compassionately returning to yourself, again and again.

My Approach

I offer mindfulness as a gentle support—not a rigid method. It’s always adapted to your needs, background, and comfort. Whether you’re new to mindfulness or already have a practice, we’ll explore how it can deepen your sense of safety, intention, and self-trust. This work often pairs well with EMDR, DBT, or trauma-informed care.
