Psychotherapist, Massage Therapist, Energy Healer & Holistic Health Counselor in Santa Barbara, Marie Basso

Marie Basso was born and raised in Lima, Peru and came to America thirty-years ago. She was blessed to be born in Peru where she lived in a dichotomy of intellectualism and the magical world of the land. Marie understood early on that there was more to life than her family was able to see or appreciate. Living in two worlds simultaneously taught her to hold polarities, which is a gift when working with her clients.

Marie has been preparing for her healing work since she was a child. Her first teacher was the cook who worked in her house and healed people through ritual, herbs, readings, and connection with the spirit world. Later on, Marie studied psychodynamic psychology as part of her training in the healing professions. She realizes now that she has been training in different healing modalities as way to become the kind of healer she was meant to be in this lifetime. Some of these modalities are: flower essences, essential oils, meditation, and nutrition to name a few.

Marie is a Marriage and Family psychotherapist; a bodyworker/massage; energy healer; and Holistic Health Counselor. She has experience working with individuals, adults, couples, families, and children. Marie has a private practice in downtown Santa Barbara where she helps clients reach their full potential. Presently, she is working with adults and adolescents who are willing to be responsible for their own healing.
