| Practice Description: |
Are you ready to relieve your suffering and cultivate genuine happiness? I teach people how to cultivate peace of mind and openheartedness. I work with individuals, couples, and adolescents, offering skills to develop mental clarity and emotional equanimity, for a calm mind and a peaceful heart, even in the midst of inner or outer turmoil.
Mindfulness is an effective, evidence-based treatment for depression, anxiety, addictions, emotion dysregulation, chronic pain, and stress. Mindfulness, compassion, and acceptance are the core of a life lived with enthusiasm and joy and the path to returning yourself to wellness. When we feel more present, especially in tough moments, we can choose to respond more skillfully even in difficult circumstances.
I specialize in working with professionals in high-stress careers or in life transition, couples in distress, adolescents (particularly depressed, anxious, or stressed teens) and adults who struggle with emotion dysregulation. Mindfulness-based psychotherapy combines cognitive behavioral therapy with psychodynamic therapy, and emphasizes use of mindfulness and compassion practices in daily life.
Please visit my web site for more information.I also offer the following groups: Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention for Addiction (MBRP) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy for Depression Relapse (MBCT). I present at conferences on mindfulness and train clinical professionals in the clinical applications of mindfulness.

eMindful.com presents MBRP in a live online video/classroom!
http://emindful.com/course_descriptions/MBRP.html
Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention (MBRP) is an 8-week psycho-educational class specifically created for clients in recovery from substance use disorders and is designed to help prevent future relapse. MBRP uses empirically supported interventions from Dr. Alan Marlatt's Relapse Prevention Therapy (RPT), Jon Kabat-Zinn's Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT).
This MBRP group will be facilitated by Lisa Dale Miller. MFT, mindfulness-based psychotherapist and member of Dr. Marlatt's MBRP training team. The MBRP curriculum integrates mindfulness meditation practices with cognitive-behavioral strategies to support clients and promote vital lifestyle modifications for a healthy life of recovery. The program teaches effective skills to reduce stress, manage urges and cravings, and cultivate compassion and acceptance. Each of the eight MBRP classes includes mindfulness meditation and mindful movement, along with cognitive-behavioral strategies to maintain and reinforce sobriety. Participants will be expected to do daily home practice. All participants must have at least 30 days of active sobriety.
