I have over 25 years in child education field as a transition specialist and special education teacher specializing in ADHD, ADD, emotional disturbances .
When a person realizes that self awareness is the only long term solution, they will seek only to understand themselves. No longer do they seek to blame the outside world for their thoughts or feelings. My ideal client is one who seeks to do the work to evolve . Together we start the journey to locate the "inner" barriers that may be holding you back. We do the work to gain control of your thoughts and feelings that are keeping you feeling "stuck". Lasting relief comes from learning techniques which are less about problem-solving and more about letting-go of old beliefs and habits. Know thyself and the whole world changes!

SLAP! You've been slapped by reality! It might even feel more like a kick or a punch. And however this happened, boy does it suck! And now, it's like you have this gap between the life that you want and where you actually are. It's like you can see the way life can be, and yet it's like you're stuck in your own head and you find yourself moving farther away from what you want. You find yourself doing things you'd rather not do and just losing the joy you once felt.
