Hi, I’m Hannah.

Fascination with humans has been the defining feature of my life since memory, leading me on many journeys outer and inner. As a mindfulness and body-based therapist and coach, it is my honor (joy! delight! good fortune!) to companion others in navigating the inner terrain. Click here to learn more about my style and approach. I’ve been blessed to experience and learn within myriad types of healing containers and traditions. Working as a practitioner in the healing arts is so, so much more than a job for me. It is the wellspring from which my life flows.

My approach to the world is hugely informed by the three homes of my heart in Northern California, Boulder, Colorado, and New Orleans, Louisiana. I’ve also had the great fortune to travel within 25 countries and have spent a collective 3 years of my life outside the U.S. At this point in my life, I most identify as an inner traveler. Every day, every moment holds the possibility for a fresh engagement with life as it is.

I owe a debt of gratitude to many master teachers. For 10 years, I have been mentored intimately by Diana Zaheer. The transmissions of my most influential teachers are largely informed by the teachings of Tibetan Medicine, the Diamond Heart School of A.H. Almaas, and Daniel P Brown. I also feel fortunate to live in an age where so many teachings are available simply through the internet. Though I have not studied with most of the following people in person, the work of Adyashanti, Gangaji, Jack Kornfield, Mooji, Michael Bernard Beckwith, Ram Dass, Rupert Spira, Tara Brach, Stephen Jenkinson, Daniel Siegel, Bill Plotkin, Malidoma Somé, David Whyte, and the lineages from which they come are fundamental to how I approach both my own inner world and client work. Additionally, my work is informed by extensive study of the Enneagram, developmental psychology through a study of Integral Philosophy and STAGES International, neuroscience, psychedelic medicine, plant teachers, hospice contexts, song and storytelling, and many world wisdom traditions, including my own lineage tradition of Jewish mysticism and ritual. I would be remise not to mention all the books and authors that have made me who I am, but that list would be far too long for here.

My personal life teems with the attempt to uncover and encounter the sacred everywhere I go: in remote valleys in the wilderness, in late night dance clubs, in a stranger at the corner store, in the words that flow forth when I put pen to paper. I care deeply about cultivating a sustained wonder and celebration of this mystery we call life, so that we humans can participate in life in way that is generative for our entire earth and more-than-human community for generations to come.

  • The thing is to stalk your calling in a certain skilled and supple way, to locate the most tender and live spot and plug into that pulse. This is yielding, not fighting.

  • Half of life is lost in charming others. The other half is lost in going through anxieties caused by others. Leave this play. You have played enough.
