Lena Dicken, PsyD

Teaches at Center for Mindful Living

Lena has a master’s in Counseling Psychology and a doctorate in Clinical Psychology. She created her popular Saltwater Sessions program based off her doctoral research which combines her experience working as a therapist in the addiction community, over a decade of surfing, and half a lifetime of mindfulness practice. Lena saw how integrating mindfulness and surfing provided the perfect environment for finding resiliency in the face of failure, while appreciating, and ultimately mastering the many challenges we face in life, both in and out of the water.
