“Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart” writes Fyodor Dostoyevsky. This quote, though inspiring, leaves much unexplained. How do we transform our experiences of pain and suffering (i.e. anxiety, grief, depression, relationship discord) into the beauty of a deeper heart? Marcel Proust provides a clue, “We are healed of a suffering only by experiencing it to the full”. Thus, the transformation of suffering comes through full experience. In a society that tends to bury suffering, a guide specializing in unearthing its hidden potential is key.
I understand that the “symptoms” that bring you pain actually contain tremendous opportunity because these “symptoms” point to the buried treasure (wisdom) within. Even though you may feel simultaneously pulled in different directions by the different parts inside of you, there is a trustworthy call at the core of your being. Can you hear it?
I differ from other clinicians by practicing depth psychology mixed with radical empathy, humor, honesty and sincerity. My experience as a wilderness guide and yoga instructor help me respond to the moment. Individuals and couples find our work together effective and rewarding. You don’t have to suffer alone. Please contact me for a brief consultation.
