Joyce and Barry Vissell are a nurse and psychiatrist whose main interest since 1972 has been counseling, healing and teaching. They are the authors of five deeply-moving books on relationship, family and healing:

THE SHARED HEART-Relationship Initiations and Celebrations;

MODELS OF LOVE-The Parent-Child Journey;

RISK TO BE HEALED-The Heart of Personal and Relationship Growth;

THE HEART'S WISDOM-A Practical Guide to Growing Through Love; and

MEANT TO BE-Miraculous True Stories to Inspire a Lifetime of Love

As a result of the wide popularity and unique perspective of their books,Barry and Joyce have been sought after to present talks and workshops internationally. They have been keynote speakers and workshop leaders for many organizations, and are regular guests on radio and TV. They are contributors to the New York Times bestselling series, ChickenSoup for the Soul.

They live with their children and many animals at their home and center on a hilltop near Santa Cruz, California, where they counsel individuals and couples, and offer classes, workshops and training programs.

They are committed to "walking their talk," so they spend as much quality time as they can cultivating their relationship with each other and with their children.

It is so important to find, and live from, that centered place within ourselves, to connect with our own heart and with others. The inner, spiritual work is vital, but it is not enough. We need each other too. We need our family, but we also need spiritual extended family, a trusted support network. This inner and outer connection is a focus at all SharedHeart workshops for participants wanting deeper levels of love and healing in their lives.

Barry & Joyce offer workshops for singles, couples, families, or for a general adult audience (individuals and couples). They range in length from one to three hours, one-day, weekend, or longer retreats (3-10 days). Their counseling sessions are one-on-one or over the phone.

"Joyce and Barry are able to inspire a rare level of trust, empathy and bonding within their groups. People feel so at home in their presence that they let go of their barriers. I was amazed at the healing atmosphere present in the room." -New Times

"Barry and Joyce plough through the hard and soft spaces of the journey with great inner strength and deep respect for reflective inner tuning." -Ram Dass
