From the dreaming point of view, whatever attracts our attention is a potential gift. This is
even true of what we struggle with or causes us pain. In everyday life we define ourselves and
our lives in useful ways, but these definitions aren’t big enough for our full selves. Conflicts
with friends, body aches, addictive tendencies, depression, or feeling uncreative and stuck, are
all ways that dreaming is pushing us to grow. Likewise, whatever we are attracted to; nature,
art, stories and other people, shows us new parts of ourselves we are almost becoming. When
you open to your dreaming experiences, you invite their gifts into your life and step further on
your path of fulfillment and positive change.
It’s my job to assist you in walking your own, unique path from moment to moment. I do this by
discovering with you your new dreams and powers already beginning to emerge. We support
them to unfold and grow through stories, movement, visualizing, role-playing and sounds. When
working with couples and groups, I encourage deeper and more effective communication by
following these dreaming paths together.

It was a turning point in our relationship when my partner and I first had sessions with Elva. We understand each other better and have developed a much deeper commitment. DS
My main training is at the Process Work Graduate Institute, from where I have a Masters and a
Diploma. Process Work is a descendant of Jungian Psychology. It follows a Taoist philosophy
and incorporates some shamanistic practices and beliefs. I see clients and teach in NW Portland,
Oregon.
