Reaching out takes courage. I am a Certified Meditation and Imagery Specialist from the Huntington Meditation and Imagery Center. I teach the skillfull use of imagination. You will learn to replace fear through relaxing meditaton exercises and dialogue by stimulating this innate part of your being. I listen. I guide. I support. You will feel empowered. The words "you have cancer" can fill us with fear images. During radiation, I recalled, and re-imagined days at the beach. Experience a part of your nature which always brings peace, inspiration and courage. Learn to befriend anxiety as a message that you are alive and ready to act.
Learn the difference between anxiety, stress, and worry and you will feel more hopeful. We are all a blend of emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual parts. By connecting with parts of your unique self, integration and freedom from self-destructive thoughts and behaviors is possible.
I focus on inclusion not exclusion. If you are struggling with your sexual identity or gender, you are safe with me. Amidst suffering it helps to be reminded of the strengths and qualities that helped you survive. However we identify in the world, we all have potential, intelligence and creativity. As an aware observer, you become familiar with Center

I practice deep listening. I want to know all aspects of your story. I operate on the principle that on the deepest level you are the one who knows what you need. My role is to guide you and help you recognize and learn to manage triggers, panic, and fear when old history or present day trauma interferes with daily life. With awareness, there is always positive change. You know yourself best.

I use a blend of tools from my trauma informed training and Clinical Meditation and Imagery. Therapeutic approaches which focus on your inherent good and wholeness. Awareness of "inner space" where you can find a source of balance, strength, and wisdom. Psychosynthesis is a method of self-development that teaches how we can become well-functioning people in harmony with ourselves and the world.
