Pamela Holtzman

No one is exempt from the challenges that life can bring. At times, catastrophic events, illness, personal struggles and financial deconstruction can leave even the strongest person feeling helpless and facing uncharted territory. When our coping mechanisms and defenses are no longer effective, we are compelled to be introspective in new ways, and to access internal resources we may not have known existed. We can learn tools and strategies to reduce negativity, impulsivity, and reactivity that underline depression, anxiety, binge eating, addictions, and relational problems.

We all hold within us a resource of wisdom, hope, inner peace, and the capacity to change. My goal is to guide you to connect to your authentic self, to become more exuberant, empathic, secure, and self-assured in times of stress. These tools allow you to make permanent changes in your life that can lead to emotional resilience, better health, and increased well-being.

UPCOMING EVENTS

Bringing Consciousness To Our Habits, Compulsions and Addictions
6:00 pm - 7:30 p.m.

We are often unconsious, having hidden feelings of fear, doubt, insecurity and self-loathing which create our suffering. We find ourselves absorbed in some behavior or unconscious habit and not aware or mindful of what we are doing or feeling.
Learn to navigate the speed bumps in life: the frustrations, irritations, worries and self-doubt, and get on the highway that includes love, joy, peace and forgiveness. Give up the habits that do not bring you pleasure and keep you from truly being engaged in your life.

Explore the connections between neurology and impulse, thought and behavior. Understand the power of addictions, how they affect our mind, body and relationships.

Learn tools and techniques to unhook from unhealthy patterns and rewire your brain.

This workshop will borrow from the wisdom of steps one through seven of the 12-step model of recovery, in a supportive and safe environment.We are often unconsious, having hidden feelings of fear, doubt, insecurity and self-loathing which create our suffering.
