ellness, LLC. to offer a space for persons served to pursue overall personal health. At AHW I understand that there is no single path to well-being. Holistic wellness encompasses the physical, emotional, social, spiritual, & intellectual. My multi-faceted services strive to focus on the whole person. The symbol of the ampersand is our touchstone.

However, we do not have unlimited ‘ands.’ Our stories continue to be written every day, no matter what life puts in our paths. You will guide me and I will listen and provide an environment for healing. And together create transformation for your personal growth and life fulfillment.

Well hello friend! Look at this little guy who was on the door this morning. Small thing that made me slow down and smile. Hope you find a small thing in your day to slow down to enjoy, if not, borrow this one!

Community connection opportunity this week!

Summer Solstice is the height of the sun's dominance on our corner of the earth; when she stays in the sky the longest and turns back toward the rest of winter. Celebrated for millennia, this ritual marks a time of change and transition for all species.

Pollinate Ritual, Wild Heart DSM, Sabba Circle and DSM Drummers will be back for our third year of Summer Solstice together. Bring the family and friends, a blanket and a picnic, and join us at Greenwood Park (Amphitheater) for some quality community time.

Bring your picnic and a blanket starting at 5pm. We will start our program with drumming, fire and community ritual around 7pm. Never been to a community ritual? Join us and find out what it's all about.

This event is free and open to everyone. Support the work with a free will donation via Venmo -RItual.

To all those doing the work, you are amazing.

If you’ve ever done couples therapy with me, or couples therapy period for that matter, you’ve probably done EFT. Dr. Sue Johnson has contributed so much to the field and the news of her passing is truly a loss. All I can be say is thank you, and we will continue to put your work to good use.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Dr. Sue Johnson on April 23, 2024. Dr. Johnson was a beloved teacher, therapist, author, and the pioneering innovator of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Her remarkable contributions have left an indelible mark on the field of therapy and the lives of countless individuals, couples, and families worldwide. She was also a cherished friend whose warmth and wisdom profoundly touched all who knew her.
