When I practiced as a psychotherapist, I drew on my own experience as a meditator and student of Buddhist psychology. These practices have given me an irreplaceable kind of “refuge” for handling the most difficult places in my life, and an approach for facing the world with greater wisdom, open-heartedness, and courage. In the fall of 2014, I started teaching courses in Buddhist psychology as a way of sharing some of what I have learned. This work is currently on hold.
