Changing Point represents the path unfolding as the mind finds clarity and potential to free itself from the cycles of suffering.
Each person takes their own path over their lifetime. That path can be straight, circular, or winding. It might be filled with anxiety, stress, loneliness, happiness, or love.
This path begins at the center of the unalome spiral and represents the way we're trapped in our own fear, worry, and uncertainty.​
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.

Kassia Coleman
Healing is not a straight line. It lives in the body, in memory, in the stories we’ve told ourselves so many times they start to feel like truth. My work is to be with you in that, not to rush you through it, but to help you find your way back to connecting to yourself at a pace that feels safe.
​
I bring a depth of clinical training to this work, and I use it with intention. Every person who walks through my door is different, and the path forward should reflect that.
