Touched by trauma, adverse childhood experiences and a fast paced, unstable adolescence, Steve’s interest in healing began early on. He began touring with bands at the age of 15. Being exposed to disenfranchised populations, art, addictions and individuals passionate about changing the world led to Steve becoming captivated by what makes us who we are and why we feel what we do. During his tenure at the University of British Columbia, Steve began a path of exploration into Eastern and Western Mysticism, Jungian psychology and a host of other psychotherapeutic modalities. On his travels to over 25 countries, Steve was afforded the opportunity of spending time with countless guides, teachers and way-showers. Through these experiences and his academic research, Steve began to understand that for many of us, there is a disconnect between who we are and who we think we should be, which obstructs us from our true selves, misdirects our life goals, and keeps us from being truly free. Steve also realized that almost all of us struggle with some form of trauma, whether great or small and that we are all hampered by the stress and anxiety of daily existence. In his early 30’s a life-changing experience and subsequent integration process enabled Steve to overcome life long struggles with depression, anxiety and trauma. His own personal experiences and challenges with these issues has led not only deep empathy and compassion for those who continue to contend with them, but also a deep conviction and knowing that they can be overcome. Steve’s greatest passion is for serving as a guide in the process of transformation and the realization of our greatest potential.
