Personality Mapping is a powerful guided process to understand how we got here, where we're going, and what's blocking our way.
During childhood we create maps for ourselves that frame our realities and shape our behaviors, often for the rest of our lives. These early maps are grounded in our genetic predispositions and shaped through our earliest childhood experiences, including interactions with parents, grandparents, siblings, and other significant people in our lives. They carry important information on what is acceptable and what must be hidden in our lives.
We shape ourselves from this early information. We hold these maps in our bodies as well as emotionally and mentally; they correlate to neural pathways in our brain. Events in our lives from then on are filtered through these maps. We react to current situations based on our maps. However, we can change due to the neuroplasticity of the brain.
"Thank you for your excellent presentation at our conference Creativity and Madness, Psychological Studies of Art and Artists, in Santa Fe this past August. The comments about your presentation from our questionnaires were uniformly laudatory . . . . [Personality Mapping is] a very interesting and clinically useful technique." Barry M. Panter, M.D.

New! I am available by Skype!
I work actively with couples, suggesting a phrase, a question, slowing everything down, interrupting the flow for a purpose. I will not allow you to fight in my office. I am focused on each of you and the third entity, your relationship. I hope for a lot of feedback from you, especially early on. Eventually, you will learn what you need and outgrow me. I'll be around for tune-ups, though.

Being a parent is always challenging, but nothing can prepare you for the most devastating parenting challenge of all: the death of your child.
In this honest and touching book, Chandrama shares her personal journal from that most difficult time in her life. And then, from the point of view of a clinical psychotherapist who specializes in working with parents who’ve lost children of all ages, she offers practical steps and specific resources to help you regain your balance, learn to cope, and eventually live beyond survival.
Chandrama will be presenting at The Compassionate Friends National Conference in July, 2011 in Minneapolis.
