Hello! I often work with people who think deeply, feel intensely, and process the world in non-linear ways…and struggle to channel their ideas into action. You may replay thoughts in your mind and see several possibilities, react on emotions and regret it later, and struggle with focus, distraction, or self-doubt. Some of my clients have ADHD, some wonder if they do, and some just know it feels overwhelming to be inside their mind. I’ll be fully present as you express thoughts, process emotions and help you understand what is beneath the surface driving your behaviors. We’ll explore the parts of yourself you’ve been avoiding.
Hi, I’m Dr. Hawkins! In my practice as a board certified osteopathic family medicine physician with over a decade of healthcare experience, I began to recognize a recurrent pattern in my patients presenting for common physical health problems who often had an accompanied underlying and unaddressed psychological condition. Upon further investigation, I discovered that these were frequently related to life stressors that impacted their sleep, nutrition, activity, work, mood, and interpersonal relationships. Utilizing my background and education in psychology, I integrated this therapeutic approach to patient care by emphasizing healthy lifestyle modification. In my work with patients, I recognize the strong association between diet, exercise, sleep quality, stress management, family bonds, cultural background, use of positive coping skills, and environmental influences on health. I was trained in the philosophy that the individual person is a unit composed of the mind, body, and spirit and the health of the individual is contingent upon the integration and the harmonious functioning of these three component parts.
