Holistic Psychotherapist, Hypnotherapist & Transformational Coach
I help sensitive, introspective adults who feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in old patterns return to a deeper sense of calm, clarity, and self-trust. I blend psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, mindfulness, and subconscious healing to meet what lives beneath the surface, not just the symptoms. Healing, I believe, is a return to yourself, not a reinvention.

Frequently Asked Questions About Mindfulness-Based (MBCT)
What is mindfulness-based therapy?
Mindfulness-based therapies integrate formal mindfulness practices — paying deliberate, non-judgmental attention to the present moment — into a psychotherapeutic framework. Rather than teaching mindfulness as a relaxation technique, these approaches use it as a tool for changing how people relate to difficult thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. The two most established approaches are Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), both with robust research support.
What is the difference between MBSR and MBCT?
Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn, is an 8-week program originally designed for chronic illness and stress; it is widely used for anxiety, pain, and general wellbeing. Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), developed by Segal, Williams, and Teasdale, integrates CBT elements specifically for people with recurrent depression; it is the best-evidenced psychological intervention for preventing depressive relapse. Both are typically delivered in group format, though individual MBCT and MBSR-informed therapy are also offered.
What conditions does mindfulness-based therapy help with?
Mindfulness-based approaches have strong evidence for reducing anxiety, preventing depressive relapse, managing chronic pain, reducing burnout and stress, and improving overall quality of life. They are also used adjunctively in treatment for PTSD, eating disorders, substance use, and personality disorders. MBCT is specifically recommended in Canadian clinical guidelines for people who have experienced three or more episodes of major depression.
Do I need to have a meditation practice to benefit from mindfulness-based therapy?
No prior meditation experience is needed. Mindfulness-based therapy programs teach practice from the ground up, starting with brief exercises and building gradually. What matters more than prior experience is willingness to practise regularly between sessions — most programs involve daily home practice of 30–45 minutes. This commitment is what drives the benefits; the techniques themselves are learned through repeated practice rather than conceptual understanding.
Is mindfulness-based therapy connected to religion or spirituality?
Mindfulness has roots in Buddhist contemplative practice, but clinical mindfulness-based programs like MBSR and MBCT are secular and evidence-based — they do not involve religious instruction or belief. The practices are taught as psychological and attentional tools, not spiritual ones. People of all religious backgrounds, including those with no spiritual interest, participate in and benefit from these programs. If you have concerns about the spiritual context, discuss them with your therapist before beginning.
