Truth is the beginning, and healing is always possible if you are willing to do the next indicated thing.

My interest in this field started when I was very young and saw children like myself who were struggling with so much pain as they grew up. As an adult, I discovered that there were ways to heal the pain and trauma that I had experienced in my life. What I enjoy most about doing this work is being able to provide compassion and hope to others as I facilitate their process of healing and recovery. My passion is to create and facilitate these types of healing experiences for people of all cultures and backgrounds.

In addition to my education and training, I have worked in the mental health and addiction fields for over 50 years, specializing in helping families and individuals heal from their unresolved trauma experiences as well as helping families recover from the ravages that occur to everyone as a result of various types of addictions. I have also conducted thousands of training seminars for professionals throughout the U.S. and in Europe while also providing intensive healing workshops for families and individuals.

My greatest love is for people, family, and friends who are close to me, and I spend as much time as possible being together with them. I love to travel and see new places and have created groups of friends everywhere I have spent a significant amount of time in.  My other free time is usually spent reading and learning, listening to and playing music, watching movies or detective shows on TV, or just sitting by the fireplace or by the water, enjoying the peace and being connected to my God.
