Many people find themselves troubled by long-standing symptoms, or a sense of feeling held back by something. Often, for a range of different reasons, there have been experiences that have not been able to be spoken, and therefore silence persists when it comes to deeper longings or deciding life direction.

I help people find creative responses to the impasses that can arise in many facets of life.
