My journey in life has brought me to be more accepting of the both/and, the grey in life, to move toward greater balance and seek the lessons to be learned in the struggles, transitions, the pain and sorrow of life.
Much of life isn’t always about being happy. It is about working toward/striving for happiness. Life is about how we address the struggles, the pain…. Trying to balance the positive with the not so positive.
That is the symbolism of the figure in my logo: balance along with the complimentary colors of blue (cool) and orange (warm). The hands in the logo one being up and one being down for giving and receiving. The yellow rays that spread outward from the fire heart center is reflective of my faith life and belief in God. Yellow is my God color. Part of the therapeutic process is to access the support of the fire of God’s love within, to move into your authentic life, the gift God has given each of us and share it with the world.
To discover God’s magnificent work of art: YOU!
