It gives me great joy to share with others the tools and benefits of my own forty plus years of personal work and professional training in the areas of personal and spiritual growth, healing and transformation. Voice Dialogue radically transformed and upgraded the quality of my own life and professional offerings when I was first introduced to it in 1990, by Drs. Hal and Sidra Stone, especially the work with Embracing The Inner Critic and the use of expressive arts therapy. I find that Voice Dialogue greatly speeds up the rate at which positive, lasting change is possible...and it's an approach that is fun while offering deep insights into the question of "Who am I ?" I offer a client-centered, intuitive, compassionate approach that provides a safe space for personal inquiry and process. Voice Dialogue may be done by itself or combined with any of my other services. Please feel free to contact me for a complimentary phone consult to see if working together is the next step for you.
