Introduction

My main saying, which is plastered all over my website, is 'you deserve peace just as much as anyone else'. I remember what it felt like to have little to no peace/contentment, and it's miserable. When I was at my worst with my own mental health diagnoses, I would describe to others that I felt like a half-dead person, just kind of walking around in a perpetual state of being asleep. When I started getting better, it's like I woke up. I named my practice 'The Wakeful State', because that's my hope for you: to be in a state of wakefulness, clarity, and a little closer to joy. If you're willing to talk and change, I believe I can help get you to your own wakeful state.
