Facing the Truth of Your Life
A culmination of 35 years of experience, is a summary of what I have learned about healing others and myself. I invite you to take this journey and see the impact of the knowledge in this book on your life.

I want you to heal. I want you to see the world differently. I want you to move beyond your pain. I want you most of all, to accept yourself and get on with your life.
