About

authoring a new story

There is a story that brought you to this moment, a pause between where you have been and something new – perhaps a preferred chapter. Pain and suffering in many forms seems to find us all. Many hold their suffering close and then realize it gets especially heavy and need a safe place to let go and just talk. For the last 10 years I have had the privilege of meeting with amazing individuals and the stories that brought them to our time together. Previously, I had a career in graphic design where I worked as a sole proprietor for 30 years. My wife and I have been married 40 years and have navigated waves of meaning and uncertainty as we raised our children and now enjoy an expanding family that includes grandchildren. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest our family embraced getting out into nature and sometimes venturing off the trail to see a new view. These views gave me a sense of scale and mystery, reminders that we are unique and a part of something bigger than ourselves. Conversations around meaning are good for our mental health. I invite and am comfortable with your philosophical, spiritual, and existential conversations. They may be your source of meaning and hope, of anxiety and hurt, or perhaps a combination of many conflicting factors. What I have seen is how time and support together can lead to a life that is preferred, a life where emotions and thoughts are better understood, accepted and managed for preferred outcomes and relationships. I believe that in the midst of loss, grief and pain there can be slivers of hope, resilience, joy and mending. We all can become more mindful and effective, and in a life where pain is no stranger, we can lower suffering and feel less stuck moving forward from the story that brought us here. If you want to begin a new conversation that begins where you find yourself at this moment – I welcome the opportunity to join you.
