About Nan
The Practitioner behind the Practice
Nan Hébert, MA
I work with people at moments when familiar ways of living or understanding no longer fit, and something more honest is beginning to take shape.
My role is not to direct or diagnose prematurely, but to remain present with what is emerging—to listen carefully for what is subtle, and to help create the conditions in which meaningful change can unfold.
I am a licensed psychotherapist holding a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a focus in Contemplative Psychology and Buddhist Psychotherapy from Naropa University, with additional PhD-level coursework in Jungian depth psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute and in Somatic psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies.
I have experience serving on Naropa University’s Master's Somatic Counseling program. I lived, taught, and practiced at Esalen Institute, working alongside senior teachers in embodied relational Gestalt, a range of somatic psychology modalities, and contemplative movement. In addition, I have spent over two decades teaching yoga philosophy and practice internationally, including years within Jivamukti lineage.
What I bring to this work is not a single method, but a life of serious study across traditions that most practitioners encounter separately, if at all— held together by direct study rather than certification alone.
I am less interested in labels than in patterns, and less interested in quick answers than in what is already organizing itself.
I work best with people who value honesty, curiosity, and complexity, and who are willing to move slowly enough for real change to take hold.
This is not a high-volume practice, and fit matters — for both of us.
