Getting to know George Payapilly

Warm greetings, I welcome you and the challenges you are encountering. I offer my support and collaboration to understand your challenges and hopes and to develop helpful ways toward living a more beautiful life. I carry a strength-based approach that weaves a supportive fabric through this journey, where each person has unique qualities and gifts, some known and some not yet uncovered. Difficulties often bring opportunities for qualities to surface, and in working with these challenges, skills can develop. Like plants, a tree starts as a small seedling that might encounter strong winds; this can feel unstable and overwhelming, but in time the capacity develops to deal with these situations, and the trunk grows strong, revealing insights and building skills that become part of a fruitful life. Each person thrives in different ways. I have experience with strength-based, somatic experiencing, solution-focused, creative play, mindfulness, holistic, strategic family therapy, land and community relations, and spirituality. I have worked in community settings with individuals, groups, and families, from young children through high school age, and adults to elders. My family comes from two very different cultures and countries, and I was raised in another, so I have seen how many people carry in their bones different ways to see life and thrive. I am interested in collaborating to find the approach most helpful for you. While these approaches might have been fruitful for others, what will help you will develop as we work together. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from California State University, East Bay, which has provided me with a solid foundation to support you effectively. I will be glad to hear from you and begin this support. I wish you well.
