Nancy Zimmerman Pechner, M.S., Counseling Psychology, always needing to keep it fresh, is somewhat of a Renaissance woman. Her careers have been many. She is a professional mother, artist, community lay-leader and Founder of the Jewish Community High School of the Bay, curriculum developer, teacher – using art as a vehicle towards self-awareness, facilitator, counselor, officiant, massage therapist, and now, author. Holding space for growth and change is the common thread that runs through her lifetime of personal research on the human condition, and putting what she has observed into action for the greater good. Nancy lives in Maui, Hawaii, and is married to her husband of 33 years. They have three adult children.
