Resources
Books, Tools & Support for When You're Ready to Explore
These resources are here for you—whether you’re just beginning to explore something on your own, or looking for support between sessions.
Each section aligns with a core part of my practice, and includes trusted tools I’ve found useful over the years—both personally and professionally.
You don’t have to read everything. Start wherever feels right.
