Barbara holds a Master's Degree in Clinical Social Work (MSW) from the University of Califoria-

"is never over!". She looks for the lessons and gifts in every experience, and sees all as an opportunity for learning and growing.
"is never over!". She looks for the lessons and gifts in every experience, and sees all as an opportunity for learning and growing.
In 2016, Barbara's opportunity for learning to overcome obstacles was greatly increased when she was diagnosed with Waldenstrom's Macrobulinemia, a rare form of Lymphoma. She says that this cancer has been her "Black Belt Teacher" that has been a catalyst for greatly improving the quality of her life. She steps up to meet this teacher daily on the mat, and continues to manage this health challenge successfully as of this writing. It challenges her to walk her talk of finding joy, love, beauty and goodness in life in the present moment, in spite of whatever the circumstances may be.
Her experience also has also helped her develop more understanding and compassion for her clients and others who may be dealing with challenging health issues, and to develop even more self-help tools and programs that promote self-love, self-care, healing,and well-being, in addition to whatever medical care may also be required.
In addition to her professional services, Barbara is a member of several organizations which promote the care and well-being of the environment of Planet Earth and all the different life forms on it. These include
The Pachamama Alliance (which supports the indigenous people and rain forests in the jungle of Ecuador, which enchanted her when she visited the area; Greenpeace (which supports marine animals and the ocean that she loves), and the Sierra Club.
Barbara also finds great joy in spending as much time as possible outdoors communing with nature; especially walking barefoot in the nearby ocean, walking in the mountains, woods and desert, and taking nature photos. Other favorites include dancing, playing the piano, various drums and percussion, and enjoying her two rescued cats.
