I have always been drawn to the world of natural healing. When I was in high school, I loved concocting my own face masks, learning about herbs, blending teas and perfumes, and tracking the phases of the moon. My interest and curiosity grew after becoming a nurse.

In 2006, I traveled to China with a group of nurses where I witnessed the way Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine were used in conjunction to best support patients. I was fascinated! A few years later I experienced my first Reiki session which opened by eyes to the incredible power of energy healing and I needed to know more. This led me on a new and deeply fulfilling path that totally changed the course of my life. Almost immediately I began training in various mind-body practices, each one deepening my level of interest and awe.

While working in different hospitals over the last 21 years, I have often found myself and my patients wanting more, something deeper. The American medical system is amazing at treating so many things, and yet it is not always possible to address and honor the whole person in that setting. I believe that health and vitality are impacted by everything in our internal and external environment and that our bodies give us clues when we are not being true to ourselves.
