As the situation regarding COVID-19 continues, we are taking all necessary steps to protect the health and safety of clients and ourselves. Currently, and so long as we are under a social distancing order, we remain open to serve our clients via confidential telephone or Zoom video platform. It has been working well for our healing sessions, individual family constellations as well as for our workshops and facilitator trainings.  Because sessions are remote, there is no contact between clients and ourselves, so there is no risk of person-to-person transmission.

We remain ready and available to assist you. Our online store is open and your orders will be filled in a timely manner. If you would like to schedule a session or if you have any questions, please send a message to our office or call us at 301‑215‑9168.
