A holistic approach to transformation and healing.
Jacqueline Perlmutter is an addiction specialist and spiritual director certified in ecotherapy who, for 30 years, has specialized in holistic, integrated care. In serving as an existential guide, Jacqueline employs a medicine bag full of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, a spiritual toolkit, and a deep connection with our human place in the cosmos to evoke transformation and healing.
As we all walk the labyrinth we call "today," we catch glimpses of an evolving view of humans living together in a sacred, connected journey. This glimpse is caught through spiritual practices, healing, creativity, accessing intuition, and connection with each other and the earth. We need new imagination and inspiration to evolve into grounded, connected and loving beings. Now, more than ever, we are called to reach out and join with others in a way that becomes even more important as we stretch into one global community/family.

Land Acknowledgment
I was born in the San Fernando Valley, home of the Tongva Indian tribe and others. Today, my home base and therapeutic work areas are on the unceded ancestral lands of the Coast Miwok people near the headwaters of Tokelalume (Lagunitas Creek) in Sa-ta-ko (San Geronimo Valley). It is with gratitude that I honor the land itself and all its ancestors, past, present, and emerging. This land acknowledgment is only a small part of how I can support Indigenous communities. It is my active intention to stand in solidarity with Native American nations by, in this small way, honoring the history and people of this place. It is a small effort but part of growing awareness. If you are reading this, perhaps you will take a breath and a moment of silence to acknowledge the history and the people of whatever land you stand on.
