Rebecca Selove

I have been a clinical psychologist in a variety of settings for over 20 years. I am co-owner of a certified organic farm, and enjoy learning about and practicing permaculture methods. Currently my primary work focuses on addressing cancer-related disparities with public health research. I am inspired and nurtured by the people I meet through my involvement with local food production, Transition Nashville, the Northwest Earth Institute, and the Work That Reconnects.

Why I am called to facilitate the Work

I am part of and love this planet. My education, professional and personal experience, and passion are aligned with bringing people together to support one another. The Work provides a wonderful framework that guides activities so that people can bring their own gifts more completely into healing themselves, their communities, and Earth.

How I see the Work serving the Great Turning

I appreciate the wisdom of the Spiral, and the wide variety of activities that bring people into deeper heart-felt awareness of their capacity, and their connection to all else.

Audiences I work with

Community organizations, college students, environmental activists, people interested in social justice, psychotherapists.
