ABOUT CALVIN:

“It is not so much who you are, but what has happened to us on the path that affects us”

a Quote from "What Happened to You?" By trauma expert, Dr. Bruce Perry and Oprah Winfrey

I believe that each of us at our core, contain a “Divine Spark of Light,” an Immortal

Diamond, to quote Richard Rohar. However it is what happens to us on the journey of

life, that separates us from this divine energy.

All human beings have needs, such as safety, connection and belonging, along with

self-growth. It is often, in attempting to have these needs met, where things become

challenging.

As a counseling Intern, I view all people with curiosity and wonder. I walk

alongside the individual I work with, as they reconnect with their deeper self. This is the

task of our life journey.
