Mental Health Counseling Services
The Meaning Behind Our Name
I, Virginia Berling, have always found the stary night sky to be a source of inspiration, wonder and awe. Many years ago, while staring into the night sky I thought about how our sun and the other stars around us would appear from the perception of some far away star.
The word Astral is an adjective meaning: of, relating to, or coming from the stars.
Thus, Astral Perceptions means from the star's perception.
Learning how we each have our own perceptions of ourselves, others and our world around us reminded me of that long ago experience and how we in our little solar system see the galaxies and universe from our perception. Being a licensed professional counselor associate I have learned how and enjoy seeing my clients' experiences and themselves from their own unique perception, which inspires me and fills me with wonder and awe.
