What some have said about
WEDDING THERAPY
I just wanted to thank you for all the work
you did with us before our wedding. Now, having gone through the process
I can’t imagine not having worked with you before “the big day”. I
felt incredibly centered the day of our wedding. And although we did
give a lot of attention to details such as flowers, food and music,
by the time the wedding was here we were able to stop worrying about
those things and really be in the moment and focus on each other.
It actually amazes me that many people
do all this work for their wedding and don’t prepare themselves
emotionally and spiritually. A lot of what we talked about during
our sessions found their way into different aspects of our wedding…Our
vows that we wrote for each other, times we set aside for each other
and special people in our lives during that weekend…we were even
able to incorporate “the appreciations” into our rehearsal dinner
toasts to include our friends and family. …… So
I just wanted to thank you for being such an important part of our
wedding and thank you for sharing your ideas and stories of your
own wedding. The work was very inspiring and allowed us to be truly
present for a very important day in our lives.
RD, Actress, February, 2002
Thank you for helping me to experience my
wedding day so fully! The acupressure treatment was just what I
needed to feel relaxed, expansive and grounded!

…….I thank you, my husband thanks
you, and my mother thanks you…….
KKP, Administrator, January, 2003
Our exploration of my expectations of love
and marriage was invaluable in helping me to find my own reality…I
am so grateful for your help and guidance…

Wedding Therapy
As a therapist, family counselor and
Interfaith Minister, I have long been aware that many couples approaching
marriage are woefully unprepared for this extraordinary life transition.
Wedding planners will provide you with help in the external process, but
few resources are available to explore and resolve the emotional and relational
issues that arise when approaching this life-altering event.
Wedding Therapy is a series of one-on-one sessions
that will help you to envision and create your wedding and marriage. Wedding
Therapy will help you to identify and eliminate self-limiting beliefs
and behaviors that prevent you from manifesting your happiness. Your personal
voyage will be an exciting exploration that may include hands-on energy
work, systemic and/or family constellations, guided imagery, flower essences,
journaling and affirmations. Our final meeting will be a subtle energy
acupressure session prior to the ceremony that will align and attune your
chakras so that you can be fully awake and aware for your special day!
Couples Counseling
I believe that our love relationships are the most powerful mirror to reflect back to us the condition of our psyches. Love provides us with the courage to face our faults, weaknesses and misapprehensions and creates the impetus for us to evolve, transform and grow.
In my work with couples, we begin in the present to explore the breaches that have developed in your love connection. We then trace back to find and heal the original wounds that are inhibiting the flow of love in your life. Our work together fosters intimacy, communication, empathy, and most importantly, mutual respect. Whatever the outcome, honesty and self-growth are the gifts of our efforts.

Sytemic and Family Constellation Therapy
Based on the work of innovative German psychotherapist
and philosopher Bert
Hellinger, this is a provocative tool for uncovering deeply embedded
forces in the personal, professional and family ancestral systems.
Systemic and Family Constellations demonstrate how events that occurred
in past generations impact our life experience today. Hidden systemic
and/or family dynamics create disharmony in the “field”.
These forces, when brought to light, can then be harnessed for reconciliation
and healing. Click here for more information. |

Chakra Attunement
Chakra Attunement uses the same finger pressure
as PA on the Chakra (personal power and energy) centers. We work from
root to crown to cleanse, clarify, align and center energies with
your highest vibration. A deep state of relaxation ensues and awareness
and connection to inner guidance is facilitated. |

Flower Remedies
Flower
Essences are non-toxic essences homeopathically prepared from
the flowers of nonpoisonous plants, bushes and trees to harmonize
mental and emotional states. Flower Essences gently correct the emotional
upsets that give rise to physical symptoms or delay recovery from
illness, thus facilitating a natural state of health and well being.
The essences are safe and gentle for adults, children and pets. |
