Success Stories...
"I deeply appreciate Jim's gentle, healing manner. I like his insight and helpfulness when he is working with people."
Ken Keyes, Jr., author: "Handbook To Higher Consciousness"
"I cannot put in words how much I appreciate the help I have received from Jim over the course of almost 20 years. His insight, compassion, wisdom, and humor have all helped me to overcome obstacles to personal growth and fulfillment and guided me through many tough times, showing me how to make the best of everything. He continues to teach me how to use mindfulness to turn my inner gremlins into allies, enabling me to grow up, get out of my own way, enjoy my humanity, and make every moment of this precious life matter. I feel the deepest gratitude for the opportunity to have him as my mentor on this life's journey. Namaste"
Don Matesz, L.Ac., Phoenix, AZ
"We have been working with Jim for personal and business coaching for over three years. He adds value in many different areas, and has been of great help in our inter-country moves, career-changes, starting our own businesses, and other life-changing decisions. We would recommend him for all of your coaching needs."
Ray and Marianne Hyland, British Columbia, Canada

Out of the Box
Activities through the years which illustrate interests outside of my professional or educational direction include:
Swimming in oceans, paddling down rivers, climbing up the face of mountains, exploring tight and complex cave systems with occasional rescue work in both very low places and very high, living in the woods for extended periods, traveling around the country, continent, and planet, working the sound and light show at the Ambassador Theater in Washington DC in 1967, being a radio disk jockey in Pennsylvania, Washington, Vermont, and Colorado, playing bass guitarist with Pandora’s Box, guitarist with Guru Blanket Band, and drummer in garage bands in my earlier years; active parenting and homeschooling in my later years, television producer of late.

Making the Moment Matter...
There is no escaping having “a story”. It’s what sustains our myth of a consistent identity from one moment to the next, enabling us to pay our bills and brush our teeth. A goal of my work is to give you the understanding and tools to locate yourself outside your story, from where you can have better perspective, respond more effectively, and experience the joy of freedom. Just because ‘all God’s chillun’ gotta have a story doesn’t mean you have to be lost in yours.
To help people get beyond their stories and become their own therapists, I created Making the Moment Matter and authored its accompanying workbook in 1994. Since then the program has helped people from many stages of life get bigger than whatever the universe throws their way. I am currently finishing up the book, "Making the Moment Matter; An Introduction to the Alchemy of Experience".
