Getting to know Ryan Schaffer

I work to help clients feel more of their authentic selves. My mission is to help people see reality. We grow by looking at our shadows and shining light on the areas we don't see. I support people by bringing the masculine and feminine together.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I believe in connecting to ourselves spiritually. We are all unique individuals in the world. This world lives by the same design. I believe we can see the same object from different views. We can also live in illusions which keep us stuck. We need to see reality to be free and then we can appreciate seeing different views.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My focuses are on sex therapy, trauma, and addictions. We face many challenges by conditioning in our lives. This often leads to us seeking quick satisfaction because we haven't been shown how to do our process. The need for quick satisfaction can lead to addictions. I help people connect to who they are spiritually. This helps them find their own paths that lead to a fulfilling life.
