I received my MA in Counseling
Psychology (1988), and my PhD in Clinical Psychology
(1993) both from the
California Institute of Integral Studies, San
Francisco. I have been licensed in California since
1991. (CA lic. mfc28557.)
I completed my doctoral internships at the
Mount Zion UCSF HIV Mental Health Program, and at
the C.
G. Jung Institute, San Francisco.
In a prior lifetime in my country of origin, England, I
attended Leeds College of Art, receiving a BA equivalent
degree in Art and Design (Dip. A.D.) in Graphic Design.
I then received my BA in Humanities from the Open
University in London. After some years of traveling, I
returned to London, and succumbing to the
entrepreneurial spirit, created a successful career as a
clothing, stage and dance costume designer. I also owned
an art gallery showcasing artists working in all
mediums.
