I have a foot in two worlds. I am an experienced psychotherapist and coach who specializes in the use spiritual technologies for spiritual and personal evolution. Listening deeply, I help people open their heart and come back to center. In that return to center, my clients learn to live a balanced life and develop a new lens through which to experience their inner world and their outer life.
In the sanctuary of our work together, my clients learn to live from a place of peace. It’s a different way of BEING. It’s about being the essence of what you are. It’s about using life experiences to clear away old ways of being so you can finally BE who you are.
I love it when people find and feel that sweet spot of peace and calm, where they know that no matter what, all is well, they feel peace-filled. I believe in the power of personal peace. I think that cultivating sustainable personal peace can change the world. I’m also a big fan of blueberry, maple syrup and cottage cheese smoothies. Sounds gross, I know. The surprise is how super delicious they are.
My passions:
My family, yoga, meditation, spirituality and hanging out my dog, Huxley. More recently, I’ve discovered the joys of gardening.
My favorite things:
My 1991 Volvo 240 with only 235,000 miles, my svaroopa yoga blankets, and road trips.
My favorite line from the movies:
“Do you ever get the feeling that something’s going on we don’t know about?” This is from the movie Diner. Kevin Bacon says it while standing by a fence out in the country watching a beautiful woman gallop by on a gorgeous horse.
My proudest moment as a kid:
Decked out in my tutu and ballet shoes standing in front of a bunch of goofy boys also decked out in tutus and ballet shoes. I don’t know why we did this, but at the time I thought it was hilarious. I still do.
How I do what I do:
I listen. Deeply. I aim to live this line from a Rumi poem:
“The branches of your intelligence grow new leaves in the wind of this listening.”
I aim to listen beneath the dramas and stories of life to what it is going to take to take someone back to their heart, back to a space of equinimity. Then I walk with them to that place. Learn a little more about my approach to helping people.
