Welcome to Groundwork

Groundwork Transformational Therapy
"Groundwork" is the work you can do to rediscover who you really are. Groundwork is an alternate form of psychotherapy, an intense exploration outside any medical or conventional psychotherapy model. In doing Groundwork, you become a co-conspirator in finding the real story about yourself, finding the authentic grounds of your experience, and choosing to be real.

We’re born into a world of stories. Stories about reality and about us. Your parents tell them to you. Your friends tell them to you. Television tells them to you. And you start telling them to yourself. If these are good stories, stories that give you energy and courage and the ability to love and be creative, you will have a meaningful life. But if they’re not telling you who you really are, these stories are traps.

Sensing Yourself
Just as the body tells you its problems, your feelings give you important signals about the path you're on. Both your body and your psyche want to be in harmony with your life. Your feelings are always telling you something.

Your unhappiness may be telling you there’s a better story about yourself that you’re not discovering. Your anxiety may be telling you your story is so phony it’s about to collapse. Your anger may be telling you there’s a better story already trying to come out. And your self-hatred may be telling you that you already know a better story, see a better path, but aren’t living it. Groundwork helps you listen to the stories, and find the path that really belongs to you.

Rediscovering Reality
In a time of mass media deception, false role models, unreal images, dysfunctional families and almost universal game playing, our personal reality gets more and more hidden from us. The re-discovery of who we really are is crucial for living a meaningful life.

This journey, this process, is available to all of us. It is available to you.

Please take time to explore this site, and see if Groundwork speaks to you, feels right for you. If you think it is, please contact me for a personal consultation.
