Welcome and Namaste!
Welcome to my site and my counseling service. Namaste is a Sanskrit term that is used as a greeting and simply means "I bow to you." Some people, particularly in the West, have elevated the saying to a more spiritual level to mean something along the lines of "the divine (or soul) in me recognizes the divine in you."
For me it is a greeting that I give to you with respect and compassion. I welcome you to my practice and hope that if you choose to work with me you will find a path to peace and joy. I look forward to our journey together.
Namaste.
