Thomas Ayers, M.Div., Ed.D. (M, FAC, PACE)
Dr. Ayers began offering psyche-spiritual counseling and energy work sessions in the New York City region in 1997. Since then, he has noticed that his practice is evolving into one which expresses a lot less "doing" and much more "being." While most sessions include a talk phase and a table phase, most of what happens involves opening and holding a sacred space for God’s human children to sense their innate divinity directly. Thomas's practice is supported by training and experience as a teacher (Columbia University doctorate in philosophy and education), energy work practitioner (Barbara Brennan School of Healing), psychoanalyst (Westchester Institute for Training in Psychoanalysis), soldier (retired Special Forces colonel), and ordained InterFaith Minister (The New Seminary of New York and The Church of Tzaddi). More recently, he has completed the RoseLight Teacher Training Programs for both Physical, Atomic, Cellular Evolution and Flow Alignment and Connection. Thomas has also immersed himself in the spiritual teachings of the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, and Ramana Maharshi and has become a regular meditator in the process. On the 5th of May 2006, he was adopted by a cat named "Sweetie", and now appreciates more fully some of the challenges that his own parents endured!




Cindy Butterfield, M. Div. (M, SK)
Ms. Butterfield finds great joy in being of service to those who are on their spiritual journey, and she brings this joy to her work as a Gauden Mentor. Cindy has spent her entire life as an intuitive, following many paths in pursuit of her passion: spiritual growth and evolution. In 1996, she began studying with Athabascar, and has since become a practitioner and teacher of Light Body and RoseLight modalities. For the last thirty years, Cindy has also nurtured a parallel profession in the grocery industry, where she finds rich opportunities to help uplift the lives of many people. She lives in the foothills of northern California with her fourteen-year-old son, Ben and her many animals.

Deborah Noble Coburn, M. Div. (M)
After retiring from her position as a regional manager for a Fortune 500 electronic security company, Ms. Coburn chose a position as a territory manager for a leading national wholesale gift company, where she shares her passion for beauty with business owners on a daily basis. Deborah has been teaching about subtle energy and intuiting for over a decade. She is the owner of Intuiting...Creating your future Now! and is a teacher, spiritual counselor, and practitioner at The Spectrum Center for Natural Medicine in Silver Spring, MD.
