PhD Research
For my PhD research, I am studying the ways in which the irreducible powers of the universe flow through the human body and psyche in order to help heal, guide, and evolve us into more potentiated versions of ourselves.
Many therapies rely on these innate healing powers, but rarely will they define them in their cosmic dimension. My research sets out to discover what happens when we embed human healing within the greater scheme of our planetary and cosmic evolution. How does the universe desire to move through us as individuals? As communities? Who does the universe need us to become in order to enjoy our most soulful expression of self while also contributing to the world around us? What capacities do we need to develop? What areas need healing? In a time characterized by mounting systems collapse, where do we go from here?
With a background and Masters degree in evolutionary cosmology and human consciousness, I am now interested in the creation of a psycho-spiritual therapeutic methodology that is embedded in an evolutionary and emergent framework that takes into account the needs of our time and the demands of our future. Each of us, as self-organizing systems created through the evolutionary process, has a unique purpose that benefits our shared planetary community. It is our human responsibility to discover that purpose and give ourselves back to the world that created us.
Rather than fumbling around in search of purpose, why not listen to the universe’s guidance?
"Be patient, for there is certainly specific work waiting for you. Or did you think the universe went through 14 billion years of work to create you if there was not a particular function that you—and only you—could do? The creative powers residing in you will be evoked in time for the work they were created for."
