She creates an accessible synthesis of talk therapy with Experiential exercises & mindful awareness techniques to offer tools for Self growth.

Testimonial:
“It’s been a delight to know Diana and experience her lovely healing work…
Over the past ten years I’ve had the pleasure of receiving her Reiki sessions, Thai massage and Somatic talk therapy. The way she blends these modalities is so gentle and transformative. I’ve had the incredible blessing of receiving her somatic release work and had the joy of an epiphany that ended a cycle of physical violence for me as a result of her hands on healing sessions. She’s an incredible support! A gentle and extremely well versed healer that has the background of many healing modalities and life experiences that enable her to give a seeker just exactly what is required for deep healing. She’s also fabulous at organizing events and is a great support to other healers in helping them get their work to people who need them. She’s a great team player, healer and gentle, non judgemental listener. I’m so blessed to have had her by my side during many challenges.”
