Loren has been helping me move forward in a way no other therapist or business coach can or does. I have worked in international business consulting for 17 years and am now looking at forging a new path and starting my own business. Together, myself and Loren identify the emotional hangups related to such a commitment in a very «physical» way. Through her work, I am learning a new language (the one my body speaks) and discovering my hidden strengths in the face of apparent anxieties. I am hearing my body and my inner voice as never before and the information is oftentimes surprising, threaded with wisdom (sometimes even witty), and most of all comforting — and therefore, grounding. With Loren, I am taking a promising journey of self-​discovery «hands-​on».

Loren helped get me through several years of being bombarded by really horrible life experiences. Looking back at it we pretty much barreled through really intense issues that could have taken a lot more time and taken a much greater toll on me had I not found her as a therapist. Just to give you a sense, she got me through physically debilitating PTSD, the overwhelming shock of becoming a single parent, the trauma of surviving an alcohol-​fueled abusive relationship and the sheer disbelief that my mom would disown me in the middle of everything. For me, in particular, Loren’s experience with trauma and her yogic and cognitive behavorial techniques turned what could have been a crushing blow into a transformational experience. I currently have the best job ever, the best kid ever and a pretty damned good boyfriend, too. If you are therapist shopping, definitely try a few sessions with Loren. She came to every appointment with genuine concern and a smile to back that up. Or, if your life is not falling apart like mine was and you just need someone to talk to, she is equally skilled at navigating everyday issues like how to handle menopausal bosses, dating jitters, motherhood woes and complaints about the ex-​boyfriend!

I’ve known and worked with Loren off and on since 2007. She is an EXTREMELY talented coach and healer. She is able to be with very deep experiences via emotionally and psychologically.
Her bodywork skills take what I have processed via my psyche and find where it’s been internally. With her guidance and support I have been able to create deep releases that have brought me tremendous relief. I usually leave her office feeling uplifted and energized! If you’re seeking someone who can hold space for you, even if you don’t think it’s possible — think again!

I got a deep tissue massage with Loren last week and she did a great job.
She was great at her craft and I really appreciated how she talked me through what she was doing and why. Can’t wait to get back for another massage.
PS — I booked my appointment through
which is by far the best way to go about it. They’re OpenTable for local services plus I get to name my price!

Loren is AMAZING! I have been working with Loren for more than four years. She has helped me navigate the highs and lows of a fast-​paced, high stress, busy life in San Francisco.
Making time for regular holistic massages with Loren was just the beginning of my journey.
Loren has helped me learn about my body, mind and emotions, she has helped ground me and guide me through the joys and challenges of life.
Oh and regular massages to release stress and tension — just bliss! Thank you Loren!!!

I’ve known Loren Hadassah for several years. Her compassion, charm, and infectious laughter is an antidote to my everyday life. A tailored combination of Loren’s therapies is supporting me through a wretched illness. I look forward to my weekly visits, and to her help in bringing me back to life once I overcome my disease. She’s done more for me with her hands than any prescription drug treatments. Thank you, Loren.

Loren Hasassah is as talented and skilled a masseuse as you’ll find. She brings years of experience to the table (pun intended), and is just a wonderful and giving spirit to spend time with.
I learn from her, about my own body, at each and every session. Her knowledge of anatomy and alignment come thru, and she often asks great and insightful questions. She is quick to identify and ‘diagnose’ why this muscle is tight, or that joint is sore. And she’ll work carefully to ease the tension, and then also point out preventive strategies.
But her skills also come from her own grounding and centered-​ness, and her many years of yoga training and massage experience are evidenced in those wonderfully strong — yet sensitive — hands.

I’ve been a somatic therapy client of Loren’s for three years now and am grateful to have the opportunity to recommend Loren to anyone who would like to deepen the connection between their body and their mind.
Three years is a long road to have a relationship with a therapist and it hasn’t always been easy. However, the consistency of the practice. The level of care and non-​judging compassion. The active listening. The deep understanding of how the mind and body are interconnected and manifest within each other. These are the reasons that I sought out Loren as a practitioner. What I discovered was also a great sense of humor and an openness and spontaneity in the practice. Every 90 minute session has been a journey and I am often surprised at how quickly the time passes and where it leads us.
This type of work may seem costly but IT IS WORTH IT. It’s your life. Wouldn’t it be great to be moving into the rest of it as close to your true self as you can be?

Loren is a skilled and sensitive healer, with a focus on helping her clients discover and express what is going on in their minds and bodies.
I have seen Loren for massage over the past few months and am always struck by the connections between my various aches and pains and the stress or emotions present in my life that she helps me uncover. She is truly a mind-​body practitioner.
I also love that she incorporates breathing exercises and stretching into her bodywork techniques. She has helped tremendously with chronic lower back pain I experience.
I have not seen Loren for psychotherapy, but I can only imagine that her ability to listen to and support her clients in that realm is also exceptional.
