Sharon Small

Sharon has been captivated by the world of symbols, dreams and the unconscious mind for most of her life. She began writing down her dreams regularly in early high school. This interest has lead her to study many modalities that work within the world of the symbolic including, but not limited to, hypnosis, Jungian dream analysis, interfaith studies, Shamanic soul retrieval and methods of hands on healing.

Sharon has worked in the fields of midwifery, hospice, personal development and private coaching and training.

In 2004, while working for Weight Watchers, she was introduced to four questions that peaked her curiosity. “I knew there was something more behind these questions and I went on a search to find it. This led me to the book Metaphors in Mind by Penny Tompkins and James Lawley as well as the amazing articles on their website. Within a week I had booked my Clean Language training in the UK, made arrangements for my flight and was on my way into what I have found to be the most client respectful model I have ever come across. I feel so fortunate.” This is the model, the modality and the community she had been looking for.

Sharon’s training and coaching is now intimately focused on the processes of Clean Language and Symbolic Modeling. In her spare time, when she is not coaching, training or playing in the sunshine of the California Coast, she is working on her book about saying Yes to ... well, life.

Having assisted Marian at the ’07 and ’08 trainings in Portland, Sharon is now set to become the first Apricot Island licensed trainer, with her first Less is More training taking place in San Luis Obispo on the Central Coast of California on 1^st – 2^nd May, 2010.
