“QUESTIONS ARE LANTERNS THAT WE SWING AHEAD OF US TO LIGHT OUR WAY.” MARK NEPO

How We Can Work Together

The relationship between us is co-creative, meaning that it is a partnership, that we are equals and both have an active role. I am a trained therapist using honed communication and therapeutic skills to support you as a detached thinking/feeling, intuitive partner. Together we create more power for you to effect meaningful change and take dynamic actions towards your goals.

Counseling Process

  • Learn how to reduce the emotional content of an unpleasant experience

  • Identify the core unpleasant experience

  • Learn self-compassion

  • With a gentle step-by-step process, eliminate the emotional content from the unpleasant experience

  • Integrate the new experience

Your Role
  • Please invest time before each session to identify what you would like to take away from the session.

  • Please be sure all necessary electronics are charged and functional

  • Please arrive to every session on time.

  • Come to your session centered and ready to engage. (I can teach you how to do that).

  • Be open-minded. There are so many advantages to being teachable.

  • Give me feedback in the moment about your counseling experience – what is working and what is not.

  • Please budget for this investment.

  • Provide a private environment- one in which you will be safe and undisturbed

My Role
  • I will provide you with an emotionally safe, non-judgmental and respectful setting in which you can feel comfortable just being yourself.

  • I will arrive on time with all necessary electronics charged and functional

  • I will listen closely to you, respond to what I hear and ask questions. If I hear something in your voice or language or a gesture that sparks an intuitive thought, I am likely to ask you about it. Oftentimes, it is the small moments that bring about BIG shifts. If I am not on target, just tell me.

  • I am not attached to being “right.”

  • At the end of the dialogue, I will likely make a counseling request. I will ask you to stretch, to deepen the work done in the session by taking some action– writing, resolving a relationship or something that feels incomplete. You are free to negotiate, decline or accept the request.

  • To work myself out of a job.
