The Journey

One day you finally knew / what you had to do, / and began, / though the voices around you / kept shouting / their bad advice‚ / though the whole house / began to tremble / and you felt the old tug / at your ankles. / “Mend my life!” / each voice cried. / But you didn’t stop. / You knew what you had to do, / though the wind pried / with its stiff fingers / at the very foundations‚ / though their melancholy / was terrible. / It was already late / enough, and a wild night, / and the road full of fallen / branches and stones. / But little by little, / as you left their voices behind, / the stars began to burn / through the sheets of clouds, / and there was a new voice, / which you slowly / recognized as your own, / that kept you company / as you strode deeper and deeper / Into the world, / determined to do / The only thing you could do‚/ determined to save / the only life you could save.
— Mary Oliver, 1994

Connect in Ceremony

Please Note: I am in my final semester of a graduate degree in East-West Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies with an additional certificate in Spiritual Counseling. I am a registered student member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association, but my program is non-clinical. This does mean that I am not currently able to accept any form of insurance as payment. Sliding scale pricing is available for those to whom cost is a barrier. Tea and the Tea Ceremony parts of my offerings will always be offered free of charge.
