I believe in the resilience of my clients, their ability to make changes and move toward their goals for a more positive life, and learn self regard and care.
Because I am informed by training in Family Systems, I’m interested in what happens between people, in their family and intimate relationships. All of us are affected by others and I am committed to help clients achieve healthier, more rewarding relationships, and become aware of the bonding patterns that are natural to all of us. Yet, awareness can help us to begin to discover healthy boundaries and connections.
My work is largely inspired by the natural world, the elements and the cycles of birth, life, death and rebirth. Not only the life cycles but the stages of life from childhood attachment needs, to adolescent coming of age, moving out into the world in adulthood, helping aging parents, and eventually our own aging and learning to die.
Having the good fortune to live in natural areas surrounded by wildlife, waters, mountains, oceans, lakes and forests has brought me joy and solace that I bring to my work.
I am also inspired by the spiritual world, connecting with spirit, the consciousness process, meditation and pure awareness. I believe everything and everyone is connected as we are simply a manifestation of all that exists.
