First and foremost, I have a deep appreciation for peoples ability to feel both profound sadness/anger, happiness/love and everywhere in-between. I believe that the more we can understand and give non-judgmental attention to our pain or the parts of ourselves that suffer, the more opportunity there is to heal -- grow a deepened connection to self, others, and have an overall sense of "okayness" or even aliveness.
