About Steve
Turningtowardsessence.com
It is an honour to witness the transformation that unfolds within clients. Seeing their confidence emerge from the flames of change deepens my understanding of the core of what it means of be human. Answers don’t come easy, but often invite exploratory questions that delve into the essence of being. Being human means having experience. Some of which are easily contained. But others are more difficult to gather, accept and make meaning of. When those experiences are witnessed and held with respect, validation, and empathy, a greater sense of wholeness emerges that can be felt.
Good questions come with a freshness that provides space, understanding and an invitation for reflection. Should you reflect upon questions posed, you will see that it isn’t about my professional assessment of you, but of your honest assessment and personal truth that is of greater value.
My background as a wilderness guide, teacher & counsellor strengthen my capacity to forge a collaborative alliance with you. Together we remove the barriers between you & your essential nature, who already knows the way. I honed this practice of turning towards essence in advanced study of imaginal psychology, spiritual guidance & yoga.
