For people who want to benefit from working together in a direct, one-on-one way, I offer individual guidance, mentoring and healing sessions via Zoom. The focus of these sessions is compassionate presence. While I might offer you tools to help you further understand, work with, and heal content that’s coming up at a personality level, our larger work supports your coming into conscious contact with nondual awareness.

There is an element of the unarticulatable—the mystery—to deep contact. This contact goes beyond any form or system or language. One person I’ve worked with calls his sessions “Soul to Soul Companion” sessions, which I love. I do not muffle the traditions and lineages on which I draw– including subtle energetic and shamanic work, Vipassana, Advaita Vedanta, Kashmir Shaivism, and many psychotherapeutic modalities—at the same time as having no need to limit my offerings. The experiences and influences we’ve had shape us, but it is our conscious awareness itself that is of interest to me.

To this end I invite your curiosity and will answer any questions you have—about me, about how I practice, about my training. I might have answers that take the form of words, or I might gesture to “the mystery”, and we can drop into the healing silence together.

I can tell you, for instance, that when I am in states of deep meditation, where energy flows freely through me, my body moves. I often feel trauma release from the body as literal shaking, like a puppy dog who’s just jumped off the couch. Sounds and tones come out of my mouth, and these seem to allow energy to settle, move if it’s been frozen, and integrate.

For me these visible and audible gestures and communications are indications of being in the flow, of being connected to right-brain-dominant-experiential processing. I’ve learned to trust the inherent wisdom in these communications, in listening inwards, and allowing grace to show me the path towards true Self.

The courageous people who have worked with me and with their own systems in this way tell me that they find clarity, coherence, and compassion. Being in these states seems to silence the harsh inner critic, and to quiet the insatiable, suffering egoic mental chatter.

What matters most to me is embodying an open-hearted way of being in the world. When we have the felt sense that someone is deeply accompanying us, the path back to the heart—the place of patience and peace within—becomes clear.
