Who we are at Sacred Balance Healing |
|
| Debra Solomon | |
 I
have dedicated my professional life to healing work. Having grown up in
a New England medical family, I graduated from Harvard University in 1980
and received my M.D. from Tufts medical school in 1984. Being more interested
in people than body parts and wanting to work with patients (rather than
on them) to support them in healing and growing, I did my specialty training
in psychiatry. In 1988, with Stephen’s steadfast support and business
advice, I opened a private psychiatric practice in Rhode Island which, over
19 years, included therapy dogs, novel approaches to chronic illness, and
increasingly holistic approaches to all of the life issues my patients presented.
In 2004, Stephen and I both began our three years of formal training in
energy medicine during which we delved deeply into our own selves and our
lives, and ultimately transformed our lives with a move to Taos, NM. |

Debra and Stephen together |
|
We are very clear that we are a
great deal more together  than
the sum of our individual parts! While we each take pains to assure that
we each stand solidly on our own two feet, with our own unique interests
and creative pursuits, our most cheirshed moments are those we share together.
26 years together has served to deepen our intimacy and understanding of
each other, of the sacred dance of masculine and feminine, and to sharpen
our insight into the vital role that connecting with other people serves
in strengthening each of us as individuals. We work and play together beautifully,
and hope that we can apply both our individual strengths and the synergy
of our own sacred balance to helping you find your way on your own healing
path. |

I
can thank my parents for an early exposure to energy work. As a child,
I would douse the back yard with my sister for coins tossed there by our
father. (We never lost a cent!) Later on, my parents encouraged me to
study various martial arts and meditation. Healership per se
would develop later, after I received a degree in Administrative Science
fromYale University and embarked on an adventurous career that included
consulting to the US Department of Energy, cutting fish, corporate middle
management, high tech product development small business consulting, database
development, and several start-ups in publishing and the arts. .For all
the intellectual satisfaction of this varied life, I came to understand
with age that the gift of intellect and a pretty good head for business
was overshadowed by my fascination and love for people. After 19 years
of providing insight into Debra's psychiatric practice, we decided to
explore other healing modalities and put what we had learned into action.
