Description Of Practice
Carol is the founder of the Seattle-based organization, The Northwest Center for Mindful Living. Services include individual and couples psychotherapy, clinical consultation, leadership support and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) classes and workshops to the private and public sector.
Carol’s clinical approach weaves together the skills of Self-relations work, Ericksonian hypnotherapy, Narrative training, humanistic therapy, trauma resolution, cognitive restructuring and contemplative & mindfulness based practices. She has extensive training as a Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction instructor through the University of Massachusetts’s Medical School’s Center for Mindfulness. Carol regards her role as parent to be her greatest spiritual and clinical training ground.
She embraces the foundations of Mindfulness, including acceptance and gratitude, as the heart from which all her clinical work, supervision and teaching arises. Her approach is to weave together thoughts, feelings and body sensations under the open sky of spiritual practice. Carol draws from both Western and Eastern practices, particularly Buddhism, to support the healing process. She also has studied a variety of body-based practices including yoga, qi gong, tai chi, Continuum and mindful movement, which she integrates into her work. Her intention as a healer is to facilitate, witness and guide others toward internal or interpersonal peace, well-being and integrity.
Carol also holds the position of Adjunct Faculty in the Health Psychology Department at Bastyr University, working with both graduate and undergraduate students. She also has worked as a Systems Consultant for the Leadership Institute of Seattle 10 years. A lifelong learner, Carol currently is studying the interplay between mindfulness and interpersonal neurobiology.
For relaxation, she can be found deep in gardening or music meditation.
