I met Barbara in the early 90s as my counselor at Sierra Tucson. She was brilliant and kind and wise. I still think of her often. Thank you Barbara, always in my heart, Lee
I had not seen her famous posts about politics since Christmas and was shocked when I checked her FB page. Someone was kind enough to tell us that she had passed. She changed my life back in the early 90s. I'm as "clean" of my pain, as she would tell us to aim for, as I can be now because of her. I owe so much to her and will miss her very much.
Thirty years ago this wonderful person and gifted therapist entered my life. She knew me better than I knew myself at that time. With her expert facilitation, today I am living my best life. She will always live in my heart for the life-altering role she played in my journey to healing and wholeness. R. I. P., dear Barb, I am missing you and always will. Until I can laugh with you again.
I had the honor of working with Barbara for many years. I met her at Sierra Tucson program in Arizona in 1991 where we became friends and remained connected over all these past years. We traveled together, found new restaurants along the way and spent a lot of time as fellow sunbathers. She was a remarkable therapist, great fun to travel with, it’s an honor to have known her as my friend. Barbara was an avid movie goer, loved her flowers and was a great mother to her son. She had a spiritual light that she cherished. Goodbye to you, my friend, I am blessed to have known you. Sincerely, Cynthia Collier. Palm Desert California
Barb was my friend and mentor. She was the strongest and most independent woman I have ever had the pleasure to know. I will always love and keep your words of advice close to my heart.
