Am honored and thrilled to be teaching future therapists/graduate students counseling skills at Santa Clara University for the third time. I never dreamed I would be teaching at a university back when I was an undergraduate.
It’s exciting and makes me a better therapist!

“Being the “best you can be” is really only possible when you are deeply connected to one another. Splendid isolation is for planets, not people.”

This is all too true. If no one was safe, you learn to protection over connection.

Truth. No one can invalidate your feelings.

Oldie, goodie, truth.

Great question to ponder before 2022 arrives

Kindness to yourself is kindness to others. As your own well-being increases, you’re more able and likely to be patient, supportive, forgiving, and loving. To take care of them, you’ve got to take care of yourself; otherwise you start running on empty. As you grow happiness and other inner strengths inside yourself, you’ve got more to offer to others.

Hurt people hurt people. Love is how we break the cycle.

Love is always the answer, no matter the question.

Compassion, empathy, kindness, liking, affection, cooperation, and altruism are all in our nature, woven into the fabric of human DNA, the most social – and most loving – species on the planet. Love is a kind of solvent, gradually dissolving the neurotic knots inside your head. In touch with love, you feel less vulnerable and have more room to breathe, speak, and act with others.
