THE SYMBOL ABOVE IS ONE I USE TO REPRESENT MY PRACTICE.

It is known as the "Man in the Maze," an emblem of the Tohono O'odham Nation of Southern Arizona (formerly known as the Papago Indians).

The design, depicts a person exiting a labyrinth.

  With variations, labriynths appeared among other Pre-Columbian peoples in the Americas. In fact, the symbol also sprang up in ancient Europe.    


A common interpretation of the symbol represents the journeys everyone must take in life. Journeys which give meaning to life. 

I believe that a person faces challenges, twists and turns that require new ways of behaving and new ways of seeing the world. Healing often means finding a place within oneself, a center, where these new ways can be learned. 

As I understand it,  the journey of healing does not end once a person reaches the center.  An essential part of transformation is the journey back, where the person returns to life with their new gifts, sharing them with others.
