Lindy has been counseling men, women and couples for over 10 years. She is a graduate of the 2-year training at the Hakomi Institute of San Francisco. She regularly leads woman's groups, and day/weekend retreats (some of which are in collaboration with friend and colleague Marlies Cocheret). She makes her home in Santa Cruz, CA, where she is pioneering the use of Hakomi therapy techniques combined with horseback riding. (See Wind Horse)

"I have had the privilege of working with Lindy for many years. I experience Lindy to be insightful, kind, patient, perceptive, grounded, attentive, gracious and professional, all at the same time. Her ability to touch my soul and help me into a new depth of understanding is amazing.

I came to her to help with my body image and compulsive eating and that my dissatisfaction was deeper than simply to lose weight. My body and my mind were in a state of disconnect. Through Lindy's help I have been able to connect myself as a whole individual. With Lindy I have been able to connect my body and my emotions. I have become so much more understanding and gentle with myself and others.

In our first sessions I would 'spin.' I am now grounded and mindful and can be present for myself in the moment. I have discovered the value of paying attention to my body and thoughts. I feel so much more of my own person now vs. reacting to others. Lindy has taught me how to pay attention to myself and feel the love for my child within.

I recommend her most highly as a therapist and teacher and I have the highest respect for her integrity and skills."
