my approach
Based on my desire to find a way to relieve human suffering in an age of short-term care, I have established that the most useful tool to send people off into the world with better coping devices is by raising a person’s self-esteem during brief therapeutic sessions.
Using hypnosis combined with Buddhist-based body / mind relaxation and self-awareness techniques, I have been able to help people rid themselves of insecurities and past traumas with a very high success rate. I aid them in achieving their own healthy relationships, as well as financial and other personal goals.
The archetypal images I use as metaphors for my understanding of my therapeutic relationship to my clients are “the healer as a martial artist” bending with the flow of movement and cutting through to reach a source of clarity with which to light the way for the journeying wounded client. The archetype for the client is that of the “journey of the hero.” The hero – or heroine – is that of the fairytale prince or princess who battles evil to overcome the ordeal, in order to live a wonderful life.
my inspiration
I was born at the Sri Aurobindo Ashram in Pondicherry India, to a Malaysian mother and French father who were helping to develop the then still new international eco-community, Auroville. Sri Aurobindo was the East Indian predecessor to Mahatma Gandhi and Malcolm X. He achieved “Supra Mental Consciousness” through his own Supramental yogic practices in the 1950’s. He was a master teacher who achieved higher consciousness before leaving this realm. He died before I was born, but I will walk with a purpose to increase awareness around me as part of his legacy.
My passion and irrepressible drive is to learn how the human mechanism works and what the most efficient manner is to address personal suffering. I also strive to help people to overcome past, current, or ongoing personal pain in order to move forward and thrive. My thirst for knowledge about all things mysterious, amorphous and existential has lead me through a journey of 20 years of deep searching and researching, including a cross-country trip to American Indian reservations.
