About Ryan Schaffer

I am licensed in Connecticut with 7 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with coping with addictions, trauma, abuse, intimacy related issues, career difficulties, & executive coaching. I also have experience working with professional coaching. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I use a 6 month transformation schedule. I choose to bring the masculine and feminine together. The body, mind, and soul are all important to lead a fulfilling life. The truth sets us free. If you experience an internal truth of wanting to uncover the deeper meaning of life, I will support your journey on recognizing and owning your personal strengths.
