My Background
My Mission & Intention
My Training & My Work
I spent my young life working in the service industry and serving in the US Army National Guard, while studying biology and psychology in college, receiving a degree in Health Science.
When I was 23 years old, I suffered from an undiagnosable autoimmune condition. I had been chronically disconnected/dissociated from my body for much of my life until that point, and this painful condition was a call back into my body, into presence. This condition marked the beginning of my healing journey, almost 10 years ago, of learning to understand the language of my body (sensation) and how it relates to my mind.
During that time, I remembered my passion for yoga and successfully healed my body with food and movement as medicine. I cleaned up my relationships and practiced healthy boundaries. I learned that my body is my ally, and to respect pain and sensation as valuable information. Building trust with my body, I witnessed firsthand the body/mind's incredible ability to heal itself with consistency of healthy habits over time. After this experience, I became increasingly interested in holistic preventative care, and found my calling in massage therapy in 2018. Healing is a lifelong journey, with gratitude, I remain present with my body and being as it changes, knowing that part of my purpose here is to remain connected to my body and to wholeness, so that I may offer that frequency of loving connection through my work.
My Training & My Work
My Mission & Intention
My Training & My Work
I graduated from Cortiva Institute and started my career in massage therapy in 2018. I became Reiki certified in 2019. Since that time, my work has been focused on assisting my clients with releasing chronic pain patterns with a trauma informed massage approach, offering a combination of Somatic Mindfulness, Presencing, deep tissue, and myofascial techniques.
I continue to expand my knowledge and skills with continuing education and relevant reading material on somatic healing and the body/mind connection.
In session together, we create the space for nervous system regulation and reconnection. This is your time to regulate and reconnect. Bring a willingness to explore and to heal, to get the most from this experience of working together. Although I utilize many different techniques, my main offering in a session is listening and being present as a loving witness in support of you and your wholeness.
The following techniques may be utilized in session, including but not limited to; deep tissue, myofascial, cupping, Somatic Mindfulness, Presencing, gentle movement, stretching, breathwork, reiki, and craniosacral work. Each session is unique and customized depending on your needs and preferences.

My Mission & Intention
To share presence with my clients and to support their connection to their own empowered and embodied presence!
Presence is where we can access the deepest healing that is already and always here, Now.
When we engage together in conscious awareness of feeling and noticing sensation without judgement, we can illuminate a previously unreachable and unconscious pain cycle. It is in this light of conscious, curious, loving awareness where positive change and transformation take place.
