About
As a native New Yorker, I spent my adult life recovering from formative years spent living in the concrete jungle. I went West for college and lived in very rural and remote places until recently when I returned to the East.
My quest to find a joyous and efficient method of supporting individuals in the process of transformation began more than 25 years ago. I observed that talk therapy did not seem to help people make dramatic and lasting changes in their lives. This observation was the beginning of an ongoing journey of discovery.
My background includes graduate studies in the fields of education, social work and environmental studies. Modalities such as art therapy, sensory integration, play therapy and educational kinesiology demonstrated that healing often requires engaging that which is not conscious.
As a certified educational kinesiologist I discovered a gift for attending to the places of unique and previously undetected conflicts in individuals. I was able to access levels of an individual’s wisdom and knowing that traditional therapies failed to reach. I specialized in working with men who experienced repeated accidents, injuries, chronic depression and health crises.
In 1993 a car accident propelled me into a decade long healing crisis. As a result of this accident I gained an ability to read the energetic truths of the physical, emotional and spiritual fabric of an individual, whether or not we are in the same room. My awareness of subtle and complex themes and my ability to name those themes, has only deepened with time. There is no training for the work I offer.
My journey has not come from a quest for the truth, or some desire to gain enlightenment. My nature since birth has been like that of the princess and the pea, always sensing the subtle things “underneath”. I have been constantly prompted by the discomfort caused by any lack of alignment to gain greater and greater understanding of the underlying dynamics of the human energy field.
What I do is partly a gift of my nature, partly the result of an opening that came with the car accident, and partly the result of ever increasing clarity that has come through ongoing clearing. I am able to quickly and accurately offer unique insight into how your history, beliefs and mechanisms of adaptation block authentic engagement.
I am not beginning from the mental realm of theory or the idea of things. Instead, I am dwelling in a place that is aligned in mental, emotional, spiritual, energetic and physical integrity. For you, this means there is no place that I won’t go, and nothing I am afraid of. I am also very clear about the limits of our work and often refer clients to other kinds of work.
The awareness of subtle energetic realities in another, on all levels - emotional, mental, physical and spiritual - and the ability to give words to those experiences and themes, enable me to efficiently address subtle and complex themes that you find no therapist or coach can track or identify.
