Buddhists believe that meditation, spirituality, good deeds, and positive behavior can help a person achieve enlightenment.

*NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS - 10/2020* Your wellbeing begins with your awareness.

I bring my experience as a hospital chaplain and a Zen Buddhist who received lay ordination in 2007 to my spiritual counseling practice. The purpose of spiritual counseling is to support you in living from your deepest, most authentic self.

One of my areas of focus is infidelity. Even though the discovery of an affair can be devastating, it doesn't necessarily mean your marriage is over. Each affair has it's own reasons and meanings. But almost always, the avoidance of certain painful thoughts and feelings keep things from getting better. I often hear that I'm easy to open up to, even about things that might feel embarrassing or...

During our time together, I will roll up my sleeves and wo...

An artist who never experienced being loved by a woman may look for a different therapy than someone who, after the collapse of the Twin Towers, has experienced crises of panic and is unable to travel the subway. Somebody may want to stop using drugs and alcohol, but may also be interested in finding a spiritual path. Most frequently, people do not know what they want from therapy. Finding out ...
My approach to therapy with adults is based upon the belief that everyone has the power to heal oneself.
