Suffering can be emotional pain, physical pain, pain caused by love, death, or even loss. Sometimes our suffering can be more than we can bear and we need help to understand the source of our pain and acceptance of it. Very often we are unaware of the thoughts that cause us pain. By becoming aware of the thoughts behind suffering, you can change the thoughts and promote peace. In other words, you can condition yourself to believe and behave differently and eventually suffering diminishes.
I can teach you to develop a heightened awareness of how your experience of the past affects your present. By changing your interpretation of the past events, you can change the beliefs of the present by viewing it from the perspective of a bigger picture than from the focus of the thinking mind.
As a California licensed psychotherapist with a degree in Pastoral Care & Counseling, I strive to integrate spiritual teaching with counseling and psychotherapy. I can help you loosen the grip of suffering by helping you understand what drives your thinking. Acceptance and letting go leads to peace.
