“You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind.” -Joyce Meyer

In my youthful years I was angry and didn’t possess the words or space to articulate my experience. Instead, I carried around this energy that weighed on me. Intuitively, I knew early on that my thoughts played a role in how I felt so I found solace and relief in writing them down. This introspective practice allowed me to connect to my feelings and with the help of some very patient guides sent to my life, I was able to find my voice, identify the origins of my pain, and embrace the gravity of how outside factors impacted my internal state.

While navigating my path of self-discovery, I developed the tools needed to articulate my feelings with courage and authority, transform my pain into wisdom and discern between my intuition and the negative echoes of the past. Through my journey of transformation and healing, I have witnessed the power of many holistic forms of healing.

I work with individuals seeking a deeper, more holistic approach to healing and self-discovery. Specifically with clients that may feel stuck, disconnected from themselves, overwhelmed by past experiences, or caught in patterns that no longer serve them. If you are curious about nontraditional therapy and ready to explore healing beyond conventional approaches then here is where you should begin your journey. Through nontraditional practices, intuitive guidance, self-reflection, and mind-body-spirit connection, I help you understand your story, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and move toward a greater clarity and fulfillment.

I help clients understand and shift the thoughts, emotions, and patterns keeping them stuck. Using CBT, Reiki, breathwork, and various somatic approaches, I help bring awareness to mind-body connections, process stored emotional experiences, and build healthier neural pathways-supporting greater self-awareness, regulation, clarity, and lasting change.

So many of us are moving through life carrying the burdens of our past repeating familiar survival patterns. I want to help you make sense of your story and shed those thoughts and patterns that no longer serve you so you can move towards a place of thriving and fulfillment.
