I work from the position that we are reincarnated Spiritual Beings immersed in a human experience. When we are consciously unaware of this truth or deny it, we experience dis-ease within us that can manifest as anxiety, depression, phobias, or thoughts, feelings, or behaviors that do not serve us well. When we do eventually remember or awaken to this truth (often by way of one or more Spiritually Transformative Experiences), our attempts to integrate it into our daily lives can be painful in many different ways. It can lead to feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, and alone.
Fear not! Suffering is not necessary, and integration is possible! Through the merging of psychological and spiritual processes, I can support and guide you through your healing and the re-integration of your SoulSelf within this material realm. Suffering is not the intention of our existence. Being your whole Self is your birthright. Let's reclaim it!
What qualifies me to help you is that I have been walking this path for many years. My path is my path. Let's work together to discover your way to wholeness! I do not dictate. I support and guide you out of my knowledge and experience from many lifetimes. When you are ready, I am here. This work can be done individually, as a couple, or a small group.
