Meet Dr. Parker Wilson, MA, MBA, PsyD, Buddhist Chaplain, Spiritual Advisor, and Founder of AMI
Founder of The Awakened Mind Institute, Doctor of Psychology, Buddhist Chaplain, and Spiritual Counselor, Dr. Wilson combines evidence-based cognitive practices with the contemplative insight and meditative methodology of Buddhism to guide his clients through meaningful change. NOTE: Due to degenerative health concerns, Dr. Wilson works with only a small number of practitioners.
Please feel free to explore Dr. Wilson's free audio and video content. Recently Dr. Wilson said:
"Suffering is not a failure—it's a signal; at the risk of sounding like a fortune cookie - suffering is an opportunity. Suffering is a cue to more closely examine the pain coming from our bodies, hearts, and minds. Together, using the methodology taught by the historical Buddha himself, you'll learn to work with and control even your most your most difficult and uncomfortable mental phenomena (meaning your thoughts, emotions, dreams, and the like)."
