Chris Tickner Claim

Dr. Tickner is a Licensed Psychotherapist (MFT) and Clinical Supervisor in private practice in Pasadena, CA. While always interested in holistic medicine, it wasn’t until after forays into the worlds of theatre and music that he started to practice his own form of healing. He opened his massage therapy practice in 1996 and quickly came to appreciate how the body and the mind are truly linked, and cannot exist, nor be treated, separately.  He attended Naropa University in Boulder, CO where he received his MA in Somatic Psychology. In this cutting edge program, Chris was able to study the body-mind connection in depth. Here he came to understand the important connection between the brain, our bodies and how we grow and change over time.
