Virginia was my therapist for many years. I can't think of anyone who more embodied the idea, the experience, of a beautiful soul more than she did. I feel so fortunate to have known her, and to have benefited from her deeply affirming, gentle, radiant spirit. My deepest condolences to her family, friends, and fellow patients. I am sure her loss will be felt by anyone who knew her; yet I am equally certain the memory of her luminous presence in the world will be a source of abiding sustenance and peace through all the years to come.

My cherished friend and therapist. An outstanding professional healer of my tremendous life stress especially when my husband died. We were soulmates of 15 years. She is in a place now where the angels surround her with hugs and love.

Dear Erin and Frank,
I'm so very sorry for your loss. You are both in my thoughts and meditations. Ginny was a memorable woman. I'll never forget her.
