I’m Russell.
I write and teach about
psychotherapy and spirituality.
Which is to say, about the endless, wondrous ways we experience the Really Real. And the endless, wondrous ways we seek the Really Real and, at the same time, shield ourselves against it. And the endless, wondrous ways our lives are shaped, unshaped, and reshaped by the seeking and shielding. And how people who help people can pay therapeutic attention to the endless, wondrous ways.
