Endorsed by Tara Brach Ph.D Utilizing a holistic approach, psychotherapist, Katherine Jansen-Byrkit, MPH, LPC takes her audiences on a spiritual/life journey, one that can transform despair into hope and confusion into clarity toward the ultimate discovery of an awakened self.

River to Ocean: Living in the Flow of Wakefulness is a guide that can help navigate troubled waters. River to Ocean provides concrete insights, tools, practices, and inspirational stories as Katherine explores nine aspects of wakefulness, all of which can make a real difference between thriving vs simply surviving. Audiences find not only freedom from anxiety, depression, and aloneness, but through River to Ocean, discover abiding inner peace and hope.
