I am a healer because my own life has been shaped by the journey of healing. Early injuries and trauma taught me that the body holds memory far beyond what the mind recalls. They led me to seek out teachers, methods, and practices that could help me find balance and alignment—and in turn, inspired me to share that knowledge with others.

Since beginning my second career in bodywork in 2007, I have made ongoing learning a high priority. I consider myself a lifetime student, continually deepening my skills and understanding. I have trained extensively in Structural Integration, fascial unwinding, and somatic emotional release with teachers including Ron Murray, Jeffrey Burch, Liz Gaggini, and Jon Martine. I also study with Jon Terrell, who has been a spiritual teacher to me, guiding my exploration of somatic emotional release and the integration of body, heart, and spirit.

Along the way, Malcolm Gladwell’s idea of the “10,000 hours” to mastery shaped how I view my path. It gave me an affinity for seeing my work not only as a profession but as a practice—one where every client, every session, every challenge is a learning opportunity. My hands, my attention, and my presence are continually refined in the act of showing up.

What I bring to my clients is not only skill, but partnership. Healing is not something I do to someone—it is something we create together. My goal is to help each person develop greater agency and awareness, to refine the art of observation within themselves, and to learn how constant, subtle shifts in the body can ripple out into emotional balance and spiritual well-being.

For me, this work lives on the threshold between science and art. The science gives us clarity, structure, and tools; the art gives us intuition, creativity, and the humility to know that the body always holds more wisdom than we can ever fully grasp. The more we know, the more we recognize how much remains unknown.

I walk with my clients in that mystery—with humility, skill, and reverence. Each session is an invitation to align body, heart, and spirit, and to discover what becomes possible when we honor ourselves as bridges between earth and sky.

I love my work and I love you all and asking and putting it out there does help!

I'm looking at traveling through NYC between 10/3 and 10/10 en route to Western Mass 10/10 - 10/13.

I'll be in Boston/Brookline 10/14 - 11/7 although I could start West a little sooner, my calendar is filling up!

My next stop is Plainfield MA for the weekend of 11/8 - 11/10 (hopefully, the retreat has not yet definitely accepted me...).

From there, I'll be heading to Chicago traveling 11/10 - 11/21 between Western Mass and Chicago... where will I go, what route? Probably through Baltimore and Michigan, may stop off in Nyack, Atco or Philly... any requests?

I'm going to pick up my sister for the Kentucky retreat with Beth (yay!) which is 11/21 - 11/24, and I'll then spend Thanksgiving in the Chicago area 11/28, so early that week in the Chicago area...

Then, what on earth am I doing for December & January? Oregan may be on the docket, I'll already be half way... Perhaps I'll stop off in Jackson Hole where I have a dear friend...

I'm to land in Nicaragua starting Jan. 25 - to Feb 8.
