Through the exhaustion, my body unequivocally told me to slow down, feel what I had been avoiding feeling, and to take an honest look at what was no longer working for me. In true Scorpio fashion, I channeled my intensity and passion into healing myself, investigating for years the roots of my illness within both traditional and modern medicine paradigms. It became painfully obvious that mainstream medicine had no answers or even validation—the constellation of symptoms wasn’t real unless there was a pharmaceutical drug to treat them.

Chronic illness had ripped the ground out from under my feet, but it also brought me to the plants so I could build a more solid foundation for growth. When I started working with herbs it sparked this remembering in me, of our inextricable connection with them as our ancestors, and the profound wisdom these majestic beings have to heal us not only physically but also mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. This was the gift that sprung forth from the dark, fertile soil, nourished by the compost of all that illness taught me to let go of. 

When you’re so passionate about something you can’t help but share everything you learn and people notice. So I became the go-to wellness consultant for friends and family, and in 2019 organically transitioned into working more formally with clients. 

At a basic level, sessions with me consist of a wellness consult together with somatic coaching and optional reiki treatment. I assess a client’s healing needs on the basis of their energetics and constitution (using TCM, ayurvedic, and vitalist principles), face and tongue analysis, digesti, and emotions. Together, we co-create a protocol based on your unique vision and goals that may include custom herbal formulas, flower essences, targeted supplements, detoxification methods, mindfulness practice and inner exploration. You will leave with action steps towards sustainable lifestyle change, .  

My work adheres to the holistic principle that the more a remedy activates the body's innate healing wisdom and brings the elements within us into balance, the more effectively it can work as a true cure. Whereas using drugs to force a reaction from the body just suppresses symptoms and drives them deeper into the body paving the way for deeper issues later on the same way that suppressing emotions does. The goal is to work together to bring all levels of your being into harmony so that you can rise up to your true purpose.
