Hello
THE WISDOM OF HEALING LIES WITHIN THE HEARTS & MINDS OF YOU & ME
​
I have spent my entire life seeking ways to heal my 'brokenness'. First I gained knowledge, obtaining a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, learning from truly inspirational leaders in the science of health of the body. In my time as a Public Health Nurse I learned the importance of supporting and witnessing women during their transition to mother hood. Along my journey of spiritual and emotional healing, I became a Registered Therapeutic Counselor. I discovered that true healing lies with reconnecting to our stories, our ancestors, our own body, and each other.
My Story
I STARTED OUT PRETENDING
As a young adult, I became what I thought people wanted me to be and even convinced myself that I was the one that wanted it. But inside I felt alone, scared and lost. I had no idea who I was. I was depressed and full of anxiety. I couldn’t trust anyone. I took care of everyone else except for myself.
I THOUGHT I WAS BROKEN AND SOMETHING WAS MISSING
Outside I was smiling and living the dream life. Inside I was miserable. I kept looking for that magic key that would heal my brokenness. I studied to be a Registered Nurse, thinking I’d find my answers there. I quickly realized that “Modern Medicine” was just as broken as I was- it was sorely missing the core foundations of health: The Heart and Soul.
​
A JOURNEY TO MY HEART AND SOUL
I went on my own personal journey of self-discovery exploring all kinds of traditional psycho-spiritual, emotional and energy medicines. I became a Reiki Master. I traveled to the jungle of Peru to drink the juice of mother-nature ‘La Madre’- Ayahuasca. I sat in women’s circles hearing their stories. I laid my body upon the earth, learning to breathe myself back into wholeness, reconnecting with the ancestors of my Celtic homeland. I reclaimed my body, my soul, my power and my purpose through a transfusion of Psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing, Shamanic Medicine, Sisterhood and Connection.

When you heal, I heal. We all heal.
I HEARD PAIN IN THE HEART OF EVERY WOMAN.
As a Public Health Nurse I found my passion: working with women and mothers. My heart swelled as I was able to help new mothers cope with the immense adjustment to their new role. But breastfeeding and parenting support wasn’t enough. Many were too overwhelmed by their past wounding and untold stories to even focus on parenting. They would open up to me, share their struggles and cry on my shoulder.
​
I HUNGERED TO HEAL THE COLLECTIVE WOUND THAT ALL WOMEN CARRY.
It wasn’t until I saw the patterns of suffering and trauma repeated again and again in the stories of so many women that I was able to truly see my own. Their stories were so familiar to me. They were my mother’s story, they were my story, and the stories of all of the women in my family. I hungered to do more for all woman kind- and to heal my ancestral trauma and release my own pain.
​
THE MISSING PIECE- THE WAY OUT OF SUFFERING
I took an experiential program in Transpersonal Psychology and Somatic Experiencing. I became a Registered Therapeutic Counselor. It was a powerful mind and body integration of all of the deep soul work I was doing. I was brave and dove deep into my family stories. I met many walls of resistance before I finally surrendered and allowed myself to be supported. Layer by layer I continue to allow all of the pain, trauma and shame to be truly felt, witnessed by others and released.
On the other side of that pain, was unimaginable love. I finally felt free.
I learned to let love in and really feel true happiness in my body.
When was the last time you
let someone see
