In the early 1990’s, shortly after I moved to Los Angeles, I was fortunate enough to find J. Tamar Stone (Hal's daughter). Tamar remained my primary therapist and Voice Dialogue facilitator for years. With her I learned tremendously about myself, and what it means to be a safe and skilled therapist, a powerful facilitator and teacher. After years of training to become a Voice Dialogue Facilitator, I began to co-facilitate workshops with Tamar, and other highly talented senior staff members. I now offer workshops in Montreal and Los Angeles, and train licensed psychotherapists on how to include Voice Dialogue in their practice.

Professional Background
After College my career plan to become a psychotherapist took a turn towards alternative medicines. I obtained my acupuncture degree in Montreal, Canada–my native land–in 1983. After 22 years of clinical practice in energetic medicines, and 15 or so years after having been introduced to Voice Dialogue, a very powerful dream woke me up in the middle of the night. The Dream Maker was clear. My Aware Ego agreed. I was to return to graduate school and follow the path towards licensure as a psychotherapist. Without it, my life mission would not be complete; I would not actualize who I was met to become. Six years later–in 2011–this soul driven, and profoundly awakening dream literally became reality: I obtained my license as a Marriage and Family Therapist from the State of California. Body, Emotions, Mind and Spirit are a continuum of our life force, ranging from denser energies/selves to more subtle energies/selves. When working with clients I have an integral view of how to support them best. I use my knowledge of acupuncture, Chinese and natural herbal remedies, the many psychotherapeutic modalities used in individual and couple psychotherapy, Voice Dialogue, Trauma Work, Treatment of Addiction, and Human Sexuality. With all of these therapeutic tools, I can help and support my clients restore and reclaim their physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health. I can empower them to be more receptive, and sensitive to the language their body uses to communicate its needs and wants. Voice Dialogue is a highly sophisticated, comprehensive and integral approach. It allows for the deep psychological work which awakens, honors and embraces ALL of our selves. Voice Dialogue is an exquisite modality to strengthen our Aware Ego Process. When our Aware Ego Process is engaged, we gain a greater ability to be present to many opposite, and complementary selves at the same time. We honor the gifts and limitations of our Primary and Disowned selves. We make choices that best serve the totality of who we are: from our deeply rooted instinctual and emotional energies/selves, to our more subtle spiritual guidance.
