Starkman, MSW, RSW http://www.philipvstarkman.com Sun, 20 Dec 2009 01:01:44 +0000 en hourly 1 Home http://www.philipvstarkman.com/2009/03/home/ http://www.philipvstarkman.com/2009/03/home/#comments Sun, 01 Mar 2009 18:26:34 +0000 admin http://springrainsangha.com/pvs/?p=43 I  started two journeys over 45 years ago: one as a counselor and psychotherapist, the other as a spiritual practitioner. The paths converged years later as a unique synthesis of mind/body/spirit therapy,  intuitively based,  seeing the client as a whole being, i.e.,  a social, emotional, spiritual, physical being. I work with people at all stages and situations, from those deeply wounded to those who feel well integrated but wanting to rise to the next step.

Along with talk therapies,  with a strong emphasis on Mindfulness based Cognitive Therapy,  I use a number of psycho-physical modalities,   breath work,  EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), de-conditioning etc.,  that have over the years become a unique blend of gentle healing work.

To make an appointment or for more information call (416) 410-0251 or email me.

In 2000, in order to teach meditation and Buddhist studies, I established Spring Rain Sangha (now a registered charity).  Weekly meditation classes are held every Tuesday night as well as 1 to 3 day non-residential rtreats and 5 to 10 day residential retreats take place in Ontario,  British Columbia and upstate New York.  For details see www.SpringRainSangha.com.
