Dr. of Depth Psychology 

In Private Practice,

Writing, Speaking & Teaching 

On the practical application

of key Techniques

& Philosophies

Dr. KD is quite simply so smart about so many things—a one-woman band of talk-therapy, couples-therapy, body-therapy, with a seemingly bottomless knowledge on psychology, philosophy and just about everything else—you find yourself wondering, 'How did she ever find the time to learn this much?' ~ Craig T., Los Angeles

My roots as a therapist, healer, and bodyworker have seeded over the past thirty-five years, bringing substance and depth to my one-on-one sessions with couples and individuals, as well as to the workshops and speaking engagements I tour across the country.

I am currently touring a workshop series dedicated to people in transition—be the transitions natural stages of life, sudden or unexpected changes, by choice or thrust upon us. This aspect of our lives is also known as "liminal space." While I have always specialized in working with people in transition, it is only in the last fifteen years that I have been speaking and teaching on the subject of liminality.

I am also the creator of MESHE, HESHE, MISON & ORBIT, a body of work best described as "an artistic soulful journey into the interweaving relationship of self, life and other" that is our experience of being alive. In 2000, I authored a book that wraps these principles into a spiritual coming-of-age story. I have been writing and teaching on this subject since 1985.

For nearly forty years I have maintained a private practice, which has grown and evolved over time but has always consisted of process-oriented consciousness work—a means by which to enter safely and deeply into the inner landscape of the psyche for positive and real world change. My results-oriented approach to psychology is derived from the commitment to a conscious process and the intrapsychic relationship one can access when choosing to turn toward—and look at—oneself.

I have a Ph.D. in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute of Santa Barbara, California. My emphasis of study was in Jungian Psychology and Liberation Psychology. I have also studied closely with a dharma teacher since 1994.

Since 2001 I have written a column entitled Being Present for award winning online magazine SoulfulLiving.com. I am currently a contributing writer for online body-mind-spirit portal Awaken.

I am also a contributing developer and co-lead facilitator of the workshop series Archetypes of the Feminine & Masculine. 

"A trained actor and charismatic speaker, Dr. KD makes seemingly complex principles of life accessible and poignant for both men and woman of all ages." ~ Gary S. Bobroff, Founder of JungianOnline.com
