Hi I'm Saori

Do you feel stuck on a notion of "doing the job well/being productive" and integrating "mindfulness" into your life because they seem counterintuitive? I like working with the people who want to get out of their old maladaptive pattern so they can learn to move forward while they may still be feeling not so perfect. I know how you can have a balance in your life by being constructive and mindful at the same time. I can help you achieve your goals! By providing you a few concrete tools based on mindfulness, you will learn to live mindfully and maximize all of your potential.

“I had been struggling with my mindfulness practice. Saori helped me with new strategies and tools so that I could really incorporate mindfulness into my daily life.”

Saori’s therapeutic style

I tend to be active and mindful in session, helping us stay connected to what matters most, and I tend to stay grounded in the present while pulling in the past when it helps make sense of what is happening. I tend to keep the work organized and purposeful, with enough structure to help us build momentum.

Acts as an active thought partner to challenge assumptions and drive insights.
Supportive listener Active thought partner
Deliberately manages session agenda. May assign homework.
