ABOUT ME

I have a rich background working in the healing arts. I’ve been a massage therapist for over twenty years and studied in many body-centered modalities. It became clear to me that mind, body and soul are inseparable.

Because of my own Complex PTSD, I became aware of how it impacts every area of one’s life. It has been a life journey to continue my healing process so I can be fully present for others. The healing has continued through my commitment to a daily spiritual practice. A key part of my path was realizing I wanted to continue my education so I received an MA in mental health counseling from Adams State University.

I am passionate about helping people be self-empowered in their lives by acquiring skill sets and tools that support them in showing up more fully in their lives. Part of this process is changing limiting beliefs and behaviors that contribute to stuck patterns.
