"In today's world, the search for true meaning and real satisfaction is fraught with frustrations and disappointments.
But through my experiences with Sharon and Kabbalistic Healing, I have realized a unification of the urges and endeavors of my heart, mind and spirit, and moved toward great joy, peace and an abundant enjoyment of life."

I have been an avid self-care advocate for over 30 years, prompted by a desire to find better ways of dealing with my own chronic health issues. I know all too well that self-care is often a two steps forward, one step back kind of journey -- it is ongoing and sometimes frustrating!
But it has helped me really learn how to listen to my body, take charge of my own health and wellness, and develop a better relationship with my emotions. I love to share what I know to help others feel better, which I've done for years in one-on-one bodywork sessions; the next obvious step was to find ways to expand on that passion by synthesizing all that I learn and use myself through the Heart of Self-Care.
My Background: I received my BA in Liberal Studies from San Diego State University in 1981, with an emphasis in social sciences, followed by a series of uninspiring jobs. Then, in 1986, I consciously stepped onto a path of spiritual discovery and took my first bodywork training in Shiatsu “just because it interests me.” Little did I know that it would change the course of my life by bringing me to a new career path and a total change of lifestyle!
After graduating from the New Jersey School of Massage in 1986 with certification in Shiatsu massage, I studied and was certified in Swedish massage and developed a thriving private practice in north Jersey. Many more bodywork trainings followed, as well as a two-year course in Gestalt therapy to understand more fully how our emotions live in our tissues.
Deepening interests in spiritual healing led me to become a Reiki Master/Teacher in 1998, and my desire to weave my Jewish faith more fully into my spiritual path led me to study Integrated Kabbalistic Healing® with Jason Shulman through his three year intensive program at A Society of Souls. Kabbalah is a beautiful, deeply holistic system that helps anyone of any faith (or lack thereof) understand intimately how healed and whole we always already are, in spite of --and along with -- our very human foibles and challenges.
My study and training in so many aspects of holistic health, spirituality, and balanced living enable me to offer help on many levels. It is immensely satisfying to feel the release of a muscle spasm, ease the emotional stess of an overloaded life, and support deeper levels of inner peace and connection with the mysterious Source of all that exists. I focus on the qualities of simplicity, balance, compassion and humor, and take great joy in helping others learn to live more lightly in their bodies and spirits.
I hope that your time here has given you a chance to pause, breathe, reflect, and connect to a greater sense of ease, and that you will find something in what I offer here to enliven and deepen your relationship to self-care.
