About My Clients

I hope to work with clients who want to change within. I love to talk about psychology behind their issues and symptoms but I do love to help them change internally via my modalities so have learned. I would love to work with clients who have their own goals to work on.

My Background and Approach

My approach is holistic and comprehensive. Mental health issues are not only about cognitive and emotional process (thoughts and emotions), but also about physical process (nervous system and manifestation as sensation in the body). Some people feel something in the body even though your doctor tells you that you are healthy and nothing bad has been found in your body. However, you still feel something in the heart or excessive heart pounding. In addition to cognitive, emotional, and physical aspects, there is another layer to them. it’s energetic and spiritual aspect. In energy system (chakra, and meridian system), thought, emotion and body affect your energy system and vice versa. If you work on you energy system and improves it, your issues in thought, emotion and body are improved. This holistic multi dimensional approaches will help you resolve your mental health issues more efficiently based on your needs and goals.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I have been into energy perspective via Pranic Healing and Arhatic Yoga since 2007. We all are connected to each other via The Higgs field which is a field of energy that is thought to exist in every region of the universe. Pranic Healing taught me spirituality unites but religions separate. Energy perspective explains universality of religions. Religions should be helpful or supportive of everyone and quality of their lives. I believe Karma regardless of positive or negative ones. It is almost like gravity. It just exists. I believe actions speak louder than words. I am not a trained therapist for LGBTQ. But I still wonder if I am sort of Queer or not even though I still recognize myself as a straight male. And I happen to see clients who are LGBTQ. So, I love to work with them because they are more open and soul is gender free.
