Meet Your Guide

My name is Joshua and I live in Grass Valley, CA, where the oaks meet the pines in the Sierra foothills. I live here with my wife, our two kids, a cat, a dog, and a close-knit community of friends and family. We spend our days kayaking down rivers, playing chase in the garden, making music in the living room, and gathering around fires to share stories. This profound connection with nature and community shapes my work and inspires every session.

Guiding You to Self-Inquiry

My mission is to help you connect with your inner light. To turn your lens of awareness inward and compassionately to explore the beliefs you hold about yourself and the world. Through intentional inquiry, you’ll uncover limiting beliefs, rediscover your inherent inner wisdom, and realign with your authentic self. As you reconnect with that inner light, you’ll find clarity, confidence, and a renewed capacity for joy.

Foundations & Influences

My approach blends proven modalities to meet you where you are on your journey:

  • Buddhism: Cultivating mindful awareness and compassion

  • Shamanic Practices: Honoring your connection to the natural and spiritual realms

  • Jungian Psychology: Exploring archetypes, shadows, and the story of our own Myth

  • Parts Work: Healing and integrating fragmented aspects of the self

Community Engagement

I’m deeply active in men’s work through the Mankind Project, guiding men toward emotional maturity and authentic leadership. I’ve walked the path of parenthood, including raising neuro-diverse children, and passionately support parents at an emotional and spiritual level. While I don’t offer parenting courses, my sessions create the fertile ground parents need to nurture thriving, resilient children.

Rites of Passage for Fathers

I’m currently developing rites of passage experiences specifically for fathers—rituals that honor the transition into fatherhood, strengthen paternal bonds, and open new chapters of growth and purpose.
