the truth is that things don't really get solved. they come together and fall apart. they come together again and fall apart again. it's just like that. the healing comes from letting there be room for all this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy. Pema Chodron … The birds they sang At the break of day Start again I heard them say Don't dwell on what has passed away Or what is yet to be … Ah, the wars they will be fought again The holy dove, she will be caught again Bought and sold, and bought again The dove is never free … Ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack, a crack in everything That's how the light gets in Leonard Cohen

Welcome.

We are living in times of rapid change. And while many of us are often feeling fear, sadness and dismay, we still long to have moments to pause, to reflect and to feel ease, joy, balance and even gratitude within ourselves. In our work together, we connect with our natural capacity to change, to grow and to heal. In focusing on awareness and deeper levels of experience we can uncover and cultivate strength, flexibility and resiliency. My style is real, deeply respectful, curious and often humorous. Together we create an environment that is safe and compassionate, where you can find your way toward peace, acceptance and a feeling of connectedness with yourself and to the world around you.
