Keynote statement: I work with people to explore the areas of difficulty in their lives, these may be inside themselves, between them and others or between them and their environment. As we engage in this process of noticing and making meaning together, it becomes possible for changes to happen that lead to a fuller sense of connection and enjoyment between self, other, and the world.
