Grounded by compassion, deepened through curiosity, and nurtured with time, the therapeutic relationship is an exploration in partnership.  It is, first and foremost, a creative collaboration.
 
To embark on a therapeutic process enlivens our innate impulse toward growth.  It is a leaning into life and an embrace of the notion that there is an essential self -- a place that feels like home.
​
Through the work of therapy personal meaning can be made in our habitual patterns of thought, in our strengths, in our dreams and in how we experience the world. 
​
Meaning is at the heart of soul-making.  It is at the root of feeling real.  We move out of and into ourselves by reaching -- for air, for water, for darkness and for light.
