Philosophy:
Healing is always possible. No matter how deep the problem, the wounding, the depression, etc. there is always a pathway out. The Chinese word for Crisis has two elements, danger and opportunity. No matter how dangerous the situation may appear, there is always an opportunity in the midst of crisis. Our job is to ferret out the depth of the problem, work towards healing so that choice becomes possible and to grasp the opportunity that is there. Transformation truly is possible.
