 
I just want to let you know how much I appreciate the wonderful pioneering work you are doing with dreams. Here in New England, most people have never considered the power of dreams. That has greatly surprised me as I advertise my dream workshops and groups and realized that educating people to the existence of dreamwork is the first step - very different than the captive audience in my therapy practice! It is exciting to see the newspaper article that described your dream groups and the meaningful benefits that have changed lives. It's a great step toward awakening the public to the spirit of dreams.
Lesley Zaret
I want to say that your dream workshop at the Open Center was so amazing and beneficial to my understanding of dreams. You were extremely patient, compassionate, informative and fun! I feel so lucky to have had a whole day of intense, indepth, personal dreamwork with someone as knowledgable as you. Gilda, NY Open Center participant
The workshop was fantastic! You were organized and held the focus and intent of the group-navigating through the distractions with grace. Your spirit of honoring, but not permitting distractions to affect the message of the Dream was carried off very lovingly.
"Thank you for being so good with what you do. You have opened up another door to fully becoming all that I was originally created to be."
