When you help, you see life as weak.
When you fix, you see life as broken.
When you serve, you see life as whole.
- Rachel Naomi Remen, MD

There are myriad reasons people give for seeking out this ministry,
including such things as

Grief and loss
Illness
Communication
Self esteem
Divorce
Relationships
Stress
Addiction
Sexual orientation
Animal loss

Each of these reasons has its practical aspects and necessities. Yet, sitting beneath each one there is always a desire for more peace and less separation, and this desire sits atop something else that, when looked at closely enough, comes down to an underlying belief of our being "not good enough" or "not worthy."

We are whole beings; our worth is never in question. And we all have worthy work to do toward our Homecoming of knowing this truth about ourselves. Like Michaelangelo's reply when asked how he was able to carve his "David," we simply "chip away all that isn't David."

My role is to partner you in your healing and to facilitate your movement toward that goal. I do this by listening to your story with compassion and understanding; offering ways of seeing that broaden your view and allow you to create a larger story - a "story big enough to live in;" teaching that enables deeper, more compassionate connection with self and others' encouragement of daily practice/application of new ways of being; and facilitating the critical component of emotional release. I encourage the use of various tools in this work, not asking anything of you that I have not asked of myself.
