You'll see individuals at the “core” of who they are and understand why they do the things they do.
Agencies and individuals can help children and adults with mental health issues/addictions move from surviving to thriving. Professional Counselors, Mental Health Professionals and School Counselors can learn the Seed Digging technique and help individuals completely overcome their mental health issues and addictions.
The Seed Digging Training Programs aim to help you see children and adults with a new set of “eyes” and at the heart of who they are, instead of defining them based on their behaviors.
You will understand that emotional and behavioral problems and addictions are only symptoms that are pointing to a deeper problem that can be directly tied to healing of the inner self.
Seed Digging is one of the most simple yet powerful concepts you will ever learn about. Children as young as 4-5 years old understand how to use Seed Digging to stop their own emotional and behavioral issues and continuously heal from the inside out.
It is also very powerful. We have multiple documented cases of children and adults with horrific addictions and mental health disorders who no longer meet diagnostic criteria, are now thriving, and loving life!
Seed Digging is a compassionate approach that incorporates multiple validated models of counseling that have been around for several years. It uses a simple language and new perspective to help people understand how their behaviors and feelings are directly tied into their thought processes.
Seed Digging teaches that thoughts are like tiny seeds that get planted in a garden. Positive thoughts plant happy seeds within our hearts; negative thoughts plant sad seeds instead. As these "seeds" are watered, flowers or weeds will grow. The flowers and weeds represent actions that will either produce happiness and joy or problems in our lives.
The Seed Digging training program will not only help you understand how the "garden inside of our heart" operates, but will also give you the tools to help children and adults discover who they really are. It will give you a new set of eyes and help you look past the "weeds" and see the beautiful garden that can be restored.
The program will teach you simple steps to help a person replace sad seeds in their heart with happy seeds that will continuously produce flowers.
At the PRO training level, you will discover how to help individuals with horrific additions and mental health disorders completely overcome their symptoms, thrive and enjoy life!
Seed Digging will ultimately help you put the tools in the hands of those you work with so they can also learn how to use Seed Digging continuously on their own, and pull sad seeds within their hearts when emotional and behavioral issues arise.
The Seed Digging approach is very powerful because it goes beyond only pruning the bush or "managing" symptoms. It pulls the bush up at the root so it will not grow back, therefore permanently removing the problem.
Seed Digging has been used in multiple school districts, colleges and universities, mental health agencies, and other organizations and facilities who serve children and adults who are struggling emotionally, behaviorally, and have severe addictions.
When you learn the basic strategies of Seed Digging, you will help children (and adults) move from "surviving to thriving" and learn at their greatest potential.
You will also learn how to "see" children at the core of who they are and understand why they do the things that they do. You will learn what drives their behavior and how to identify and meet the "need behind the deed".
With a few simple words and actions, you will help children discover who they really are and gain a strong self-confidence that will become the foundation for emotional and academic success.
All programs provide a minimum of 6 hours of professional development/CE credits for the Seed Digging training and provide you with tools to equip and empower others to emotionally heal!

Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor and Licensed Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselor-Clinical Supervisor and Creator of the Seed Digging Technique.
I've been working with children and adults for the past 14 years and authored 3 books and mini curriculums to help others learn how to permanently overcome mental health issues and addictions, as well as spoken at numerous conferences (state and national), colleges and universities, school districts, mental health agencies, and for state and federal agencies.
It's my true passion to help people, especially children, discover who they really are and find lasting inner healing and peace.
The powerful concepts of Seed Digging are something that personally transformed my life and helped me overcome horrific eating disorders and depression that I battled for 13 years. Because of the amazing inner transformation that I experienced, I have devoted my life to helping children and others learn that they also can permanently feel better and stay better.
In the past decade we have seen both children and adults with extreme mental health issues and addictions completely overcome their diagnoses. We have documented sessions and testimonials of children and adults who had major mental health diagnoses that are commonly labeled "incurable," no longer meet the criteria for these labels. After years of battling horrific symptoms including hallucinations, delusions, seizures, fractured personalities, psychosis, and complex trauma, clients continue to report they are symptom free and enjoying life.
The results of Seed Digging are proven and have seen hundreds of adults and children completely overcome their diagnoses and addictions. Level 3 of the training allows licensed mental health professionals and school counselors to learn the specific components of Seed Digging so they can discover life-changing results.
At the BASIC and ParaPRO levels, teachers, nurses, life coaches, behavior providers/specialists, and mental health paraprofessionals will learn how to "see" others through a lens of "love". Humans long to be needed, loved and valued. When our perceptions of people change and we see one another at the core of who they are, the lenses of "judgement" fall off and we begin to see through the eyes of "love."
When we begin to see others through this lens, the way we react towards them changes - the next progression is that the person begins to "see" themselves through this same "lens of love". This is the absolute catalyst for change in a person's life.
They must build a strong self-love and self-confidence to obtain and maintain emotional healing.
Seed Digging gives you a new set of "eyes" and the tools to empower and help others build a strong self-confidence so that they can learn, grow, and thrive at their greatest potential.
"I could share many stories of how Seed Digging has changed my patients' lives but it also has personally, permanently changed mine. "
"During my internship I was able to use Seed Digging with many students and witnessed them not only emotionally heal but also overcome serious drug and alcohol addictions. Seed Digging changes lives through "unconditional love" and not just medicine"
"One of the wonderful things about Seed Digging is how compatible and adaptable it is to all different theories of counseling."
"I witnessed a young male who was addicted to pornography since the age of 5 completely overcome his addiction. He had even sexually acted out on others his age and his behaviors were were spiraling downhill. After a few Seed Digging sessions, the root of the addiction was discovered and his addiction is completely gone. He is doing very well now. "
