71. Communicating Effectively, Dealing with Triggers, and Emotional Intelligence with Caitlin Peterson, LCSW, CHT

Caitlin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Heart-Centered Hypnotherapist and Toltec Warrior Goddess Training Facilitator. She has been working in client services for 15 years. She helps clients as a guide to support her clients as they cross the bridge from a place of self doubt, victimization and recurrent crises to lives full of awareness, personal responsibility self-compassion and joy. Caitlin fundamentally believes everyone has the answers within them to transform their life. It is in session that clients learn ancient Toltec techniques to align the body, mind and soul through the subconscious mind. This is your journey back "home" to your intrinsically loving and eternal soul. While clients may already "know what your issues are", they often come to Caitlin feeling stuck in life and desiring deeper healing to break through and move forward into the life you really want to be living. When it’s in your soul’s best interest, the time to embody yourself fully to create the necessary adjustments needed to reach your goals will come. Deeper awareness and compassionate connection to the most vulnerable parts of the self will give us a sense of being whole and complete. Whether clients are working with Caitlin together in a workshop, coaching circles, individually through counseling, with your partner or with your family, the goals are the same: to heal, to love and to grow.
