Bert is a spiritual counselor, Buddhist minister, and energy medicine practitioner. He works with individuals navigating change, grief, identity, and questions of meaning, supporting clients in reconnecting with themselves and living with greater clarity and intention.
His approach is integrative and contemplative, drawing from Buddhist practice, transpersonal psychology, holistic counseling models, and nature-based wisdom. He is deeply interested in how science, philosophy, and consciousness studies inform healing, and how that healing is lived and embodied in everyday life and relationship.
Bert is also the Executive Director of Bright Raven Farms, a nonprofit conservation and education farm rooted in ecological stewardship, community care, and experiential learning. The work of the farm reflects his belief that healing, ethics, and responsibility extend beyond the individual and into how we live with the land and with one another.
