Wanting to be happy is often a way of saying “I want peace”. Life’s difficulties test us and sometimes we feel defeated but it doesn’t have to be that way. Often, we suffer needlessly because we treat the symptom rather than the cure, we entertain the story rather than the truth and we give full rein to our personality rather than to our heart and soul. If this resonates with you, I invite you to ask yourself, "Am I living as fully as I can?" or, "Am I feeling powerless, stuck and not enjoying life?" If so, I can guide and support you to look inside for deeper truths that will allow you to grow and to find peace in your life. My specialty is relationship challenges whether partner, family, work or friend related. My work is a direct and interactive psycho-spiritual approach to resolution and healing . Understanding how your beliefs and behaviors mold your life enables positive behavioral changes. These create more authenticity and the more real you are, the more peace you have. In our sessions we use psychology, spiritual principles and energy awareness. Together, these take you through the present challenge and give you a blueprint for dealing with future challenges. Through our work together you will communicate more effectively, improve your relationships and be more in charge of your life. I look forward to meeting you.
