What problem does Light Hive address?

Light Hive addresses relational breakdown through integrative and evidence-based strategies. I specialize in burnout, unresolved conflict, unclear accountability, and fragile collaboration structures…and their alternatives.

Is this therapy, counseling, or crisis intervention?

No. Participants are encouraged to have external clinical or crisis support.

Is this work politically neutral?

Justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion, and accessibility grounds my offerings and personal worldview. Groups expecting ideological neutrality may not be a good fit.

What outcomes can we reasonably expect?

This work supports capacity, not control. Any outcome will be dependent upon ongoing practice.

What if conflict intensifies during the work?

Surfacing conflict often precedes repair. All work operates under an “open door” policy—if you need, you’re encouraged to take care of yourself.

Generative conflict—a kind that moves toward equitable resolution—is the chrysalis through which relationships move to understand its constituent parts better. Generative conflict can occur when we slow down with intention to care.

Do you work with remote/virtual groups?

As a COVID-era educator, I know in-person dialogue is best. Still, most work is conducted via Zoom for ease and accessibility.

In-person facilitation may be available to LA-based groups upon request and for a higher fee.

What’s with the “spiritual” stuff? How Buddhist is this?

My 20-year dharma practice grounds my worldview, but I don't require participants to adopt Buddhist language or practices. Group work is backed by social science and lived implementation; 1:1 spiritual guidance is explicitly dharma-informed.
