About
Hi, I'm Val. Life is unpredictable, often throwing us off course when we least expect it. Bouncing back from disappointment and difficulty can sometimes feel overwhelming. We are not always able to change our outer circumstances, however, we do have the power to change our response to difficulties. Being flexible in our response allows us to shift out of our automatic, habitual, and quick reactivity into a more skillful response. Engaging in therapy can help with facing those challenges with a positive, healthy mindset. The healthier our minds, the healthier our relationships will be. We will work together to create less stress and more ease in your mind, body, and spirit. I implement a variety of strategies to help you create more balance, confidence, and well-being in your life. I incorporate mindfulness, yoga, and compassion-based practices to help you create a more meaningful relationship with yourself and others. I look forward to taking this journey with you.
