My journey with plants began long before I ever sat in actual ceremonies with Teacher Plants. After years of psychotherapy and investing time with Western physicians, I found little relief for the chronic physical and emotional pain I was experiencing. I began working with herbal medicines, practicing yoga, and finding myself drawn to somatics and energetic healing. Eventually, I would make my way to South America and continue my healing in a much deeper way. Through working with various plant medicines from around the world, I discovered the deep energetic cleansings that plants offer. The ways in which we can be guided on our healing path through connecting to plants. I have experienced the ways at which plants can empower us to actively participate in our healing. This is the transformation. I’ve witnessed this in my own life, and in the work I facilitate.
My approach to healing work is rooted in creating a foundation of safety and trust. I offer presence, deep listening, and intuitive reflections to support you during your healing journey. If our work involves plants, we focus on the sacred nature of this process. What I mean by this is, we may know that sitting with plant medicines can be sacred and profound, but what is equally deserving of sacred acknowledgment is the way you will integrate your experience(s). I believe as you step back into the ceremony of your life, you deserve to be—and feel— fully supported as you regain your footing. In our sessions, the space will be one of support, empathy, curiosity, and compassion.

I continue to travel to Peru… I continue to learn. I continue to offer heartfelt appreciation and honor to my ancestors, teachers, and guides.
Our work together is rooted in cultivating conscious, respectful relationships with healing plants — honoring them as teachers, allies, and mirrors in your healing journey. From this foundation, our sessions may include:
Developing relationship with healing plants as living allies, supporting remembrance, insight, and inner reorientation.
For those who journey: intentional preparation and compassionate processing (often called “integration”) to help anchor, understand, and embody what arises in your plant experiences.
Attuned and heartfelt reflections to support the embodiment of the teachings, healings, and awareness gifted through your relationships with the plants.
Optional support with herbal plant medicine as gentle, ongoing allies for nourishment, regulation, and healing.
From this plant-centered foundation, we then support the body and nervous system so what the plants open can be safely received, integrated, and lived:
Building greater capacity within the body to meet life changes while supporting personal growth and evolution.
Refining understanding of the nervous system and the vital role it plays in healing, regulation, and integration.
Cultivating sustainable daily practices that reconnect you with your truest well-being and soul essence.
Increasing self-compassion and self-love, strengthening the inner relationship that allows healing to take root.
Deepening awareness of the energetic body and learning gentle ways to move through stored energies.
Safely and compassionately traversing unresolved experiences or trauma, while building tools for resourcing, support, and regulation.
