ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Gerry Boylan has worked in the recovery field since 1978. Using his formal educational background in Transpersonal Psychology, and Comparative Religion, he has specialized in bringing growing understanding to Spirituality and Recovery. Added to traditional therapeutic techniques, he brings expertise in Holotropic Breathwork, Hypnotherapy, and Energetic healing to enhance the integration of body, mind and spirit. Presently Gerry is in private practice in Louisville. His focus is on helping people help themselves, to learn to grow in trust and love and the willingness to take control of their own destinies.

He sees a special connection between recovery from addictions, or recovery from any one of life's difficulties, and a sense of spirituality within. His philosophy can be best described in this written excerpt "...to remember the kingdom of heaven is within is to know we are already forgiven, healed, and whole. All we are attempting to find in the outer world is already revealed in our hearts."
