I’ve been a therapist in private practice for 15 years, after working as a social worker and raising a family. As long as I can remember, curiosity has been my constant companion, and it has taken me on a meandering path, sometimes sweetly so, sometimes with heartbreaking challenges.

As I grow older, I feel the complexity of being a human. Both more myself than ever, while also feeling more like an expression of something larger; something unknowable that lives in all of us and animates the universe.

Circle practice is a new direction, or true to my nature, a meandering back to a path I stepped away from years ago. It’s good to be back.

The energy of the circle feels like a medicine for the chaos and cruelty of this time. Things we thought would last are ending, and something new is trying to emerge. Like many of you, I feel called right now to offer what I can. I hope this practice helps us find each other and bond together, as we feel our way in the unknown.
