Bio
Marsha Lucas, Ph.D. is a licensed psychologist and neuropsychologist, and has been practicing psychotherapy and studying the brain-behavior relationship for over twenty years. Prior to entering private practice, she was a neuropsychologist on the faculty at the Emory University School of Medicine.
She has a special interest in the practice of mindfulness, especially in how it stimulates the brain to grow new, more integrated circuits -- which may be at the heart of well-being, including emotional balance and resilience, enhanced relationships and friendships, and greater empathy and connectedness.
Dr. Lucas currently practices in Washington, DC. She is the author of “Rewire Your Brain for Love: Creating Vibrant Relationships Using the Science of Mindfulness” (Hay House, 2012).
