treatment of depression through mindfulness meditation

Perhaps you are looking for a guide who can listen carefully, offer relief, help you heal and help you move on.

I have worked with and guided hundreds of people, for more than a decade. I am grateful to have a group of professionals who trust my work and recommend me.

Listening is where it all starts. Listening carefully, hearing you deeply.

There is discussion for clarification. Some questions that may lead you to look at things in a new way.

Relief begins as you implement some brief interventions that make sense to both of us, talk over the results, and move on from there.

Looking at root causes can lead to you to make some changes so that relief may evolve into healing.

Choose your psychotherapist guide well… and get started.

Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) for depression

Began offering a new 8-week treatment for chronic sadness, or long-term depression, in the fall of 2007. Few other therapists offer it at present, yet it is powerful in its impact. Sadness doesn’t have to last forever anymore. Many people taking this treatment do remarkably better. Recent research indicates MBCT may also be very helpful for Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD).

These groups are offered in Manhattan (NYC).
