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.
Please,

the way she works and whether this would be a good fit for you
or someone you care about.
