My Personal Beliefs and Interests
With over 25 years in healthcare, I have found myself most aligned with the works of luminaires like Carl Jung, Ron and Mary Hulnick, Martin Seligman, Fritz Perlz, Carl Rogers, Irvin Yalom, and many contributors to depth psychology, positive psychology, Gestalt psychology, self-psychology, ego psychology, non-secular spiritual psychology, mind-body medicine, and humanistic psychology, to name a few. I believe lessons bestowed upon us on this Earth are a curriculum meant to illuminate the Authentic Self. Through a soul-centered lens, we align ourselves with our Authentic Self. When we do our "Ego-work," we take "Soul" responsibility for our lives and realize the innateness of who we are.
