"I have no friends, I have no enemies, only teachers..."

​I began to realize that my path was destined towards guiding others after an awakening experience with someone who I'd later call a spiritual teacher in the Utah desert. At the time, I was putting a lot of effort into my own growth with talk therapy, and began to see how healing needed to be approached beyond the confines of the mind. Diving deep into my spiritual connections allowed new paths to show themselves and I found myself travelling to North Carolina and privately apprenticing under the Collard Method of Bodywork - a modality that incorporates healing in mind, body, and spirit using touch, dialogue and Kafuta Energy Work. During this time I was initiated into the world of interdimensional healing and energetic manipulation, training on rescued farm and exotic animals. This apprenticeship changed my life and I was able to begin rebuilding myself with a new awareness of choice in my belief system. Drawn towards the spiritual and energetic realm of healing, I found myself intuitively reaching for crystals as tools, and decided to hone my skills and understanding at the science based Hibiscus Moon Crystal Academy  through which I became a Certified Crystal Practitioner where we were taught how to administer vibrational layering using minerals, sound, color, and plants. Recognizing the need for a truly holistic approach and inspired by the Collard Method of Bodywork, I decided to deepen my understanding of the mind body connection and began training with the Somatic Therapy Center in Philadelphia. I have since been certified as a Somatic Therapist in Transformative Touch and am continuing to deepen my education with their ongoing levels of training. To strengthen my abilities to guide with safety, I've also studied with the Loka Yoga School where I was certified as a Yin Yoga instructor and am continuing to train as a breathwork and meditation teacher. I am Trauma Informed via the Centre for Healing where I am working towards my certification in the Embodied Processing technique so I may better aide clients virtually or when touch is not an option. My connection to earth, fire, water, wind and spirit have been guided by my time and teachers found in the deserts of Utah. I am an Ordained Minister and I also hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from SUNY New Paltz where I trained as a Crisis Counselor.
