After many years working as a doula and new parent educator, I began my own journey into motherhood in 2022. As many women experience, I had a rebirth myself when I birthed my child. The overwhelming lack of services and support for women (especially postpartum) encouraged me to heal myself through energy work and somatics.

I have been a Reiki Practitioner since 2015 (and became a Master in 2022), and specialized in easing sleep challenges, grief, and death, working mainly in hospices. In 2017, I became a doula and new parent educator, shifting my focus to the beginning of life (which shares many of the same energetic properties as the end of life, interestingly).

I practiced yoga recreationally for the majority of my adulthood, and completed my instructor training in 2022 while pregnant as a method to keep me active and healing through a physically and emotionally challenging pregnancy. I fell in love with teaching yoga and breathwork, especially Yin, as a method of healing the body. Through yoga, I was introduced to Somatic Therapy, which has ultimately been the greatest healer of my own experiencing, and became a Somatic Healer in 2024.
