Initially I learned the practice of mindfulness to manage my chronic back pain; but as I trained further, I discovered many more benefits. I was better able to notice when my body experienced stress and how to disarm it. My sleep improved and I felt more calm throughout the day. I see mindfulness as a gift and it's my passion to share it with my family, friends, clients, and community.
Mindfulness is a natural extension of OT, as it's a life skill, that can be cultivated through understanding and practice. It specifically supports the work I do with youth who struggle with social-emotional learning and those with executive function challenges; therefore, I was very excited to continue my training in this field of study. It's been a valuable addition to my therapy practice for the kids and their families.

Although mindfulness has therapeutic value, mindfulness training does not discriminate! Mindfulness benefits EVERYONE...Teaching these skills in wellness centers, homes, and virtually for all to benefit, eliminates the stigma associated with any form of mental training. Many corporate executives, professional athletes, and celebrities practice and promote mindfulness mental training.
Learn to anchor their busy body, identify & express emotions, and be kind & accepting of others.
