We Counsel both Women & Men
in INDIVIDUAL PRIVATE THERAPY sessions
with a strong Buddhist-theoretical/practical base,
as well as good Western contemporary 'relational'
and CBT approaches to the mind & emotions.

RELATIONSHIP Counseling for Couples, Marriages
and Family - all sorts of Communication Breakdowns.
Inter-active Work: face to face, we get very personal,
very Real. A ‘Tough-Love’ approach & often very directive.
Upfront when appropriate - in clear, truthful,
compassionate, effective sessions.

In-Office Visits. ALL counseling sessions are in person.
We usually limit counseling sessions to Los Angeles people,
mostly LOCAL AREA clients – Easier for you when Near To Us:
'Distance', time and gas these days is a huge challenge.

Yes - We DO have clients who airline 'Commute'
into Los Angeles regularly/periodically from different
parts of the country & choose to do their therapy here.

Yes - Later on you may move to our ‘group meditation'
classes or confidential group 'sharing-sessions’ if you wish.

Yes - ‘Phone Counseling'-sessions are available later on,
BUT only when necessary & for ‘established clients’ with us.

ONGOING REGULAR SCHEDULED SESSIONS are by
a mutually-arranged fee & by set appointments only.

who really do need it. We'll discuss this on the phone.
No - We do not take insurance plans, medi-cal, etc.

We
DO offer a much more generous in-office
..EXTENDED SESSION TIME
than a traditional-practice usually would offer:

ALL sessions with us are given much more than
the 'standard therapy-hour' time
of (:55 min ).
We offer you usually about 1 hour+20 min (:80 min)
to allow really more space to go really deep within
as you need to - without feeling cut off or rushed.
No hurry here, have some tea, take your shoes off ...

'live', directly to your issues & feelings - We want to listen
to you.

BE COURAGEOUS ! ...some quotes ...

As human beings, our greatness lies
not so much in being able to remake the world…
As in being able to remake ourselves.
Become the changes you want to see in the world.
~ Mahatma Gandhi


Our ‘Life-Fears’ are educated into us –
and can be educated out.
~ Karl Menninger


My Dad used to say:
"There is nothing wrong with fear -
unless it's fear that controls you . . ."


The limits of the possible can only be defined
by going beyond them - into the impossible.
~ Arthur C. Clarke


Good, but ‘impossible’ resolutions, are simply checks
that people draw on a bank where they have no account.
Please, START with the eminently ‘possible’. You can.
~ Oscar Wilde


While one person hesitates
because they think insecure thoughts
and feel so inferior –— the other
is just busy making mistakes aplenty
and becoming quite superior.
~ The Tao
