Holistic Practitioner / Professional Advisor

I believe we are all happiest when we are being our fullest and most authentic selves, and to that end, I believe that mentoring, counseling and healing work are meant to help us get in touch with our natural wisdom, truth, passions, peace, and joy. Usually people come to me because they are struggling with something that is affecting their well-being. They want to overcome their struggle and make changes that are sustainable and lasting over time. They want to become more aware, more conscious. They want to better understand what makes life so difficult. Effective mentoring does not promise comfort. It promises to develop the emotional strength and intellectual resilience that allows for inner peace. The end result is therefore sound and correct judgments in all matters that we face. Holistic mentoring addresses many aspects of us as an individual: judgment, character, personal satisfaction, values, and commitment to mentoring ourselves. This process uses every aspect of who we are and how we function to engage every aspect of who we are and how we develop as an individual. We know it is an investment of time and effort which we can then draw upon.
