About Teresa
My greatest joy is to bring people together in circle. I’ve been facilitating groups and workshops for more than 26 years. Currently developing Sacred Connections – A Spiritual Community based on deepening and healing our relationships with the Earth, Spirit, ourselves and each other. The first offering is Return to Yourself – a 15 hour program for women based on the power of listening to your heart, intuition, inner voice and your Truth. Other circles and workshops include: Community Healing Circles, Peace Circles, The Women’s Sanctuary, Embracing Change and the Unknown, The Gifts of Setting Boundaries, Circles to Honor Grandmothers, Heart Circles, Spiritual Roots, Women’s Transformational Workshops, Divine Sparks, Woman Quest and Women’s Moon Circles. In Bennington, Rutland, VT, Washington County and Saratoga Springs, NY.

The Composite of a Life
A Discovery of Self
I march to the beat of a unique drum, have questioned authority for most of my life and refuse to be put into any kind of box. I prefer to use my own mind over anybody else’s and will not force myself into something that does not fit me. I’ve taken the road less traveled quite often.
There have been many turning points in my life. In August of 1996, I chose to honor the messages from the Spirit world more than the messages I received from the physical, material world.
As I look back, I see a very strong pattern. I am a non-conformist, a boat rocker and a risk taker. I recognize that this nature has been in me since the age of 6, on the first day of second grade. As the teacher spewed all the rules, I sat in my little chair knowing that those rules were there to be changed.
I discovered that my soul requires a great deal of freedom. And, I believe that the more I connect with it, the more freedom I need.
I know that I’m not here to “fit in,” to go with the status quo or to follow others. I am here to blaze my own trail, according to my Truth, and then share these things with others.
Through the years, I have created what I’ve needed. When I needed to socialize more and my spouse had more of a need to stay at home, I created a monthly Movies Night Out and semi-annual Ladies Night Out Dinners.
When I needed more mental stimulation, I started a monthly book group. 27 women joined. It fed my mind and my soul!
When I needed support and feedback on my writings, I created Divine Sparks, which was a monthly group to support each other’s creative endeavors.
Now, I am ready to support others, as they march to the beat of their own drum, rock various boats and take the risks they feel they need to take to change their life.
