Some of us are thrilled to jump out of airplanes with parachutes and others need to
feel the earth beneath our feet. Some are insomniacs, while others sleep in deep peace. Some of us want
to change the world, while others want to nest at home puttering in the garden. How any of us view and
experience our life in a given moment or over time is a function of the confluence of energetics and
information from within oneself, our environment and our interactions with each other. We are
multidimensional beings and, when circumstances and events manifest, we respond physically, mentally,
emotionally and spiritually. And, on each of these levels of being, we carry memories, beliefs and
values that influence our way of being in the world.
For over 20 years now, I have been helping individuals, couples, and families who
want to improve the quality of their lives. My goal is to assist them in claiming the best of themselves
through a process of exploring the underlying beliefs and values that are responsible for the way they
are currently living their lives. In order to empower clients to make lasting changes, I introduce them
to tools and techniques necessary to alter their patterns so they can live with greater ease, grace, and
joy. We meet in the comfort of my home or by phone. My style is eclectic, drawing upon my own journey
of personal growth, self-discovery and spiritual development as well as on my professional training.
The therapeutic process is highly personalized, reflecting your worldview, unique
set of strengths, and what causes you to resist or reject yourself, your life circumstances, or your
relationships with others. In our time together, we will explore your ways of living and expressing
yourself in a non-judgmental and compassionate, yet pragmatic way. We'll look at the ways you support
yourself, as well as how you may get in the way of creating, promoting, or allowing your goals, dreams,
and successes to come forward. Distresses are not always large, looming secrets from childhood, but
rather can be small palpitations of resistance to moving forward in a given direction. We look for
mental and emotional patterns and build upon those that support greater health and well-being, and
unravel those which interfere. Our exploration is focused on how you internally navigate through your
life experiences. For example, many people are approaching their lives with fear of repeating past
mistakes. Ironically, this myopic focus makes them unavailable to participate in the present moment
which is the only time they could choose to make desired changes. The key is looking from the inside
out rather than from the outside in. For many, breaking the habit of living in a reactive mode is an
enormous liberation.
For those with a spiritual frame of reference, mental and emotional patterns are
viewed within the context of living as a spiritual being. For example, for some, the pronoun "I" refers
to the self as a soul rather than simply your body and personality. Within this context, the body, mind
and emotions are useful tools for functioning on their respective levels of reality and can be the source
of imbalances that block spiritual awareness. In my work, I honor all religious and spiritual traditions
and am available to assist you in looking at the profound questions of your life's purpose and meaning.
Ultimately, it is my purpose and privilege to help you in freeing yourself from the
illusions, addictive patterns and fears that block you. The work is evolutionary and transformative as
you reach higher and higher ground, revealing more profound perspectives of yourself and life as you
embrace your authenticity, freedom and joy.
