My passion in life is to help individuals and couples quickly find solutions to even the most challenging issues, so that they can reconnect with a new sense of possibility and joy for what life can truly be.

The short-term, solution-oriented approach focuses on the future rather than the past. In our work together you will quickly learn how to shift your perspective from one in which you may feel frustrated, stuck, scared or angry, to a perspective, in which you will find the intension, the will, the compassion, and the wisdom you need to move forward.

It is a simple, fun, yet powerful approach, based on 35 years of experience, and described in my book, Out of the Box for Life: Being Free is Just a Choice (HarperCollins).

Through our work, you will learn to rapidly resolve most issues in your life, by shifting your perspective to one that will immediately reveal the path to creating the life, and the relationship that you truly want.

I look forward to speaking with you about what we can resolve and create together. That’s a pretty exciting possibility!

What if you already had the key to unlock aspects of yourself that you never knew existed? What if you’ve already done so in your life? What can you learn about who you already are from those precious moments you’ve experienced in the past? What if you knew that that voice in your head telling you that something was wrong with you—which we all have, so it’s not personal about you!!—was a lie? Most of us have had some moment in our lives when we experienced a sense of liberation, of being in the “zone,” of feeling a connection to another person or to life.

Most of us spend our lives stuck in a box, victimized by our emotions. But we always have a choice! In my first article (posted on March 19th) I described a transformational approach to changing your life, which becomes immediately possible with a very simple and even fun process that I call “getting out of the box. To better understand what I mean by being in the box, here is a simple process:

Congratulations. If you’re reading this article you may just have taken an important step in choosing to have an entirely different relationship regarding your emotional reactions to your mother. That’s very exciting—and truly admirable! Especially after all these years of feeling that you were powerless to change them, and that it was her fault. Now let’s see how on this Mother’s Day, and all days to come, you can achieve freedom from your automatic reactions. That would be a remarkable achievement indeed!

How to get started

What if living a healthy, happy, satisfying life free of anxiety, insecurity, anger, resentment, self-doubt, and fear were a choice? What if this kind of life could be easily accessed? What if the only thing you needed were the right tools? In this brief, solution-oriented work, you will quickly learn exactly what those tools are, and precisely how to use them to resolve issues in your relationships, your health, and within yourself. It's a simple yet powerful approach to resolving problems by shifting perspectives from a stuck, fearful, angry, and limited state to an "out-of- the-box" perspective, in which you will find the answers you need to resolve any situation and move on. This approach, which is described in my book, Out of the Box for Life: Being Free is Just a Choice (HarperCollins, 1999) is an innovative, solution-oriented, cognitive, (and at times spiritual) approach to resolving personal and relationship issues. Dr. Larry Dossey, author of Healing Words, writes “If you feel as if your life should be fuller, richer, and more joyful, but don’t know how to take the next step, read Out of the Box for Life.” I truly enjoy helping people resolve their anxiety about themselves, their health, finances, relationships, family, etc. From “out of the box” you can learn to resist the temptation to distract yourself with fear. Instead, you will learn to focus on how to achieve what you want from life. In our work, you will discover how to resolve the fears and doubts that so pervade your thoughts. Then you can understand who you truly are, and how to have a meaningful and fulfilling life. Rather than focusing on why and how we become “damaged” or develop symptoms, this approach offers a way to resolve even the most challenging issues. When a person shifts their perspective to one beyond the constraints of the ego, what is left is an individual who is satisfied and fulfilled in their relationships, work, and in simply being alive. They are then free to achieve and excel in all areas of their life.
