Counseling
Barbara’s open spirit and keen mind embody both the form and the content of this work so beautifully, which in turn assisted me in doing the same. The result has been lasting, transformative change in my career and my relationships, which flow from an integrated sense of myself. I notice an effortless quality to my work when it flows from this deep place of transformation.
Having a larger context for the ups and downs of my life has helped me stay committed to my values. Barbara’s coaching style keeps me feeling connected to all of who I am and yet challenged to take the next step. I’m amazed and grateful for her skill.
Teaching
I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Barbara and her work. She presented a 4-hour workshop at our annual women’s retreat one year and we just had to have her return the next for a full weekend. I watched in awe of her keen ability to sense the needs of the group enabled her to modify her approach, material in the moment. She became one with the group and the beauty of her soul and the wisdom of her mind was shared freely and with grace.
Barbara is the top of the line when it comes to teaching. She brings spiritual matters down to earth, applies them to our daily lives and makes sure that we go away with our questions answered. My life is far richer as a result of her teaching. In addition, just being in her sparkling presence makes me smile.
Barbara Alexander is a born teacher. Her enthusiasm for learning and growing is contagious. She has the gift for breaking down difficult concepts into understandable chunks of meaning. She is naturally reflective and consistently strives to move her own practice forward thus making her teaching credible.
I was drawn to Barbara’s class because I felt unsettled spiritually. In other words, the feeling that I know there is something more “out there” or perhaps more “within me” that is part of our world or part of what makes us all who we are, and yet I was uncomfortable with using traditional, institutionalized religion as that framework in order to get the depth of understanding that my soul seemed to crave. The class helped to reorient myself toward the spiritual and to be more in touch with the present moment. That is priceless.
