Nondual Therapy

Nondual Therapy is a transpersonal method where we understand the source of dissatisfaction to be a misidentification with who we really are. Most of us walk through life identified with a sense of self, and then we experience challenges in relationship to that sense of self. In traditional therapy, we focus on the problems that arise in regards to our sense of who we are. While that can be very valuable, from a nondual perspective it doesn’t address the core of our issues.

In nonduality our intention is to recognize the innate nature of who we are as awareness-itself, or mind-itself. This is distinct from our regular understanding of mind which involves repetitive conceptual frameworks through which we interpret reality.

In the nondual approach, we leave behind the orientation of conceptual frameworks in order to recognize a far simpler, nonconceptual experience that underlies all of our experiences, sometimes referred to as the ground of being.

In the context of our work together, that means we make direct contact with the ground of being, and that we rest there. That most often entails observation of how our repetitive mind begins to assert itself into meaning-making and a gentle seeing through of this process.

Nondual Coaching or Therapy supports us in bringing the nondual state of mind into our daily existence through learning how to rest in a state of openness, non-contrivance, and not-knowing. In effect, we are entraining this state so that it becomes more available to us effortlessly.

I completed my PhD with an emphasis on the intersection of nondual thought and mental health, in addition to having worked with author and teacher Dr. Peter Fenner for 10 years. It would be a privilege to guide you in the process of rediscovering your mind’s natural state, that you may do so again and again.

 

Nondual Therapy Supports Individuals In:

  • Recognizing a state of unconditional fulfillment

  • Learning to recognize a state of mind where nothing is missing

  • Going beyond our normal identification with who we are—”transpersonal”

  • Seeing through contracted states of being

  • Directly experiencing openness

  • Experiential understanding of ‘complete fulfillment’

For those interested in specifically Nondual work without a psychotherapeutic element, I can work with you from anywhere in the world. We will focus on presencing Nondual Awareness together.

For those interested in more traditional psychotherapy wherein we can include exploration of the Nondual dimension as an aspect of your larger psychotherapeutic process, I can work with you if you live in CA or AZ, as I am licensed in these states.
