Hi, there. My background is in psychology and in Kappasinian hypnotherapy. I achieved a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology from UCLA, a Master of Arts degree from California School of Professional Psychology (Los Angeles campus) and certification in hypnotherapy from Hypnosis Motivation Institute. I retired from Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services as a Children's Social Worker and founded my business, Transesse(c) Coaching. "Transesse" (pronounced, trans ess) is a word I coined and copy righted in 2006. It is a verb meaning "the process of elevating the self beyond a prior state of being." It is related to transcend.

I have many interests: music of most kinds, art of most kinds, literature and non-fiction subjects such as science, physics, philosophy.
