Counseling with John Genyo Sprague
In the language of dharma, every person's life is a spiritual journey, like a boat crossing the ocean. We work with the changing winds, dealing with both success and failure, suffering and joy, and seeking always to find the way.
I offer spiritual counseling, enlightenment coaching, meditation instruction, relationship mediation, and conflict resolution, to support and guide the journey. I offer my counseling services on a donation or barter basis. (Click here for a full explanation for my approach to payment.) I am available on the phone, online, and in person in Amherst, MA. Please inquire for more info.
"Counseling with Genyo is a privilege. He offers a rare combination of empathy, clear-sighted objectivity, unflagging attentiveness, and skillful, reflective listening that encourages communication and promotes insight, even in thorny situations that might at first seem impassable. His gentle but firm demeanor, his sensitivity, his keen and alert intelligence, his spiritual depth, and his wisdom about human emotions, make the counseling an experience to treasure. I've learned a lot from Genyo, and recommend him enthusiastically."
"Genyo creates a safe environment where all parties feel heard and validated. He has expertise in deep listening, with a strong ability to reflect back what has been said. He is a very skilled facilitator with a keen ability to build bridges amongst all parties involved resulting in positive outcomes."
