I have been on a Spiritual journey for most of my life. Along the way, I’ve been blessed with loving help from caring mentors from different disciplines, including an Episcopal priest, an Oncology Nurse, a practicing psychic, my wife of 23 years who taught me heart-centered counseling, countless AA members, a Reike Master, a chiropractor, a Shamanic healer, and my many clients who grow in the most delightful ways.
