About

From the age of 15, I’ve been practicing Jin Shin Jyutsu on myself and others. I learned this ancient art through my mother, Philomena Dooley, who would ask me to help her in her practice. Eventually, I met and took my first class in 1981 from my teacher, Mary Burmeister, who was a student of the originator Master Jiro Murai from Japan.

I’ve been a student and practitioner for almost 50 years. Along the way I’ve studied with Dr. Kato of Japan, first generation student of the Master. My curiousity lead me to study with Shen-Qi with Master Aiping Wang in Croatia, Yo Long Gong Qi Gong with Master Yu An Ren in China, Bu Qi with Dr. Shen of Belgium.

I’m a practitioner that teaches.

I live in Boulder, Colorado with my husband Tim, two teenage daughters, border collie Ceili, one very assertive cat, and six hens. When I’m not in Boulder, I spend time at our family cabin in Maine baking pie and swimming in the cold lake water.
