Gain Emotional Control and Learn to Feel Better

Anxiety, stress and worry, anger,  prolonged cycles of conflict, fighting and withdrawal, depression, sadness, loneliness, grief, sexual frustration and isolation: When these negative feelings dominate your life, you feel out of control, and you are unable to find joy, happiness, satisfaction or fulfillment.

  • Learn tested tools that give you control of your emotional life, so that you can feel better–sometimes even after a first session.
  • Learn a systematic way of stopping negative emotions such as anxiety and anger that you can take into your daily life, into your relationships, and work situations.
  • Learn tools to awaken and maintain positive emotions and thoughts.
  • Learning these life skills will improve your relationships, give you more energy for work and creativity, help you focus and make better decisions.

My approach — based on 30 years of professional expereince and adapted to your unique situation — includes:

  • Centering and mindfulness
  • Attending to the present moment
  • Anxiety management
  • Anger management
  • Somatic (body) awareness training
  • Depression management (undoing the depressive response)
  • Undoing the triggers that send you into a negative cycle
  • Communication skills (how to talk to yourself and others)
  • Identification and shifting of negative relationship cycles
  • Learning positive emotional and relational cycles
  • Developing your emotional attunement and resonance
  • Learning to make better decisions by tapping into your emotional knowledge
