Psychosis / Extreme States • Healthcare / Emergency / Frontline Professionals • Child / Adolescent / Teen • more…

Grief, loss, and change challenge us to renegotiate – in our bodies, in our thoughts – earlier and similar transformations in our lives. This process stirs up emotions, thoughts, images, and bodily experiences that those around us – and often ourselves – have difficulty receiving, much less considering. In our work together, I will attend with integrity to whatever expressions of body, mind, and heart that arise; there is no rush to clinically parse and diagnose expressions fundamental to our shared human experience. We will consider dreams, bodily experiences, images and silences. In this work that requires patience of us both, and as you speak freely about whatever enters your mind, I will listen attentively as you discover and connect the elements of your own history, desires, associations, and a genuine – even transformative – sense of humor in the service of your own psychological, spiritual, and embodied personal narrative.

A person's sense of self develops through their relationships – with oneself, with close relations, with strangers, and with the larger world – natural, spiritual, or human.
