Often one's struggle is linked to a sensitivity to the suffering, oppression, and ecological crisis in the world. I am available to help you to face the array of feelings that arise in response to the world. Often, as one digests such feelings, one can move out of despair into a more meaningful engagement in the world.

   Emotional suffering may also result from the power of various cultural narratives in our lives. I have found that as we develop perspective on those cultural stories, such as those about gender, race, and class, and their impacts, we become more free to create our lives in satisfying ways.
