About Aerial.............
As a personal growth counselor, I use person-centered methods where areas for exploration are chosen by the client. I am not a psychotherapist and don't diagnose or label clients with mental disorders. I help the client explore their mental, emotional, and spiritual environment so they can discover and eliminate the underlying causes of their limiting patterns and beliefs. I create a safe space for the client to explore the contents of their world in order to eliminate their unwanted conditions and achieve their goals. The applications I use reflect the common goal of therapies, religions, and philosophies, whether one calls this goal the attainment of sanity, enlightenment, happiness, wisdom or self- actualization. I look forward to working with you!
I have been counseling with a variety of mental and spiritual techniques since 1977. My credentials include a masters degree in counseling/psychology and I am a certified trainer and counselor for the Traumatic Incident Reduction Association. I am a certified Advanced Senior Trainer and Facilitator in Applied Metapsychology and have certification in a wide range of mind/body interventions called Energy Psychology. I did an internship at the Institute for Research in Metapsychology where I assisted in research and development of procedures. I am also an ordained minister with the Progressive Universal Life Church.
I was the founder and past president of the board for Trauma Relief Services of the Northwest, a non-profit educational foundation providing counseling services and education in the field of trauma. . I teach personal development and professional workshops in life skills, stress reduction, energy management, and trauma resolution.
