My Story

I am attuned and certified in the following practices and lineages of Reiki: Usui/Holy Fire® III Reiki Master Teacher, Usui Ryoho Reiki Master Teacher, and Crystal Reiki Master & Teacher, and am currently working towards certification with the International Association of Trauma Recovery Coaching. The way trauma affects the human body is something that intrigues me. I will continue to explore modalities that can help individuals break the cycle of response and work towards living a life they love.

My life continues to be an evolutionary adventure. I have two incredible sons who bring me great joy and pride. They have taught me unconditional love and countless life lessons since day one and are now helping me understand the art of "letting go". My friends and family are wonderful people who love fiercely and are always there for me when I need them. I've enjoyed many amazing adventures and experiences in this beautiful world and have found success in my career path. Even with all these life gifts, I always felt a longing for a deeper connection, but could never quite figure out what that meant, until I started to look within.

Growing up in a household where violence and fear were the undercurrents of life, I found myself constantly seeking safety, acceptance, and stability - anything that would allow me to feel "normal". I searched sports, friendships, religion, careers and relationships, but just couldn’t quite find the belonging I was yearning for. It turns out that nurturing a relationship within was what I was seeking, instead of validation from external sources.

​​

After a series of emotionally exhausting events, I was left numb and unmotivated, but open to all things new. This was when I was introduced to Reiki's powerful life force energy and the idea of crystal healing. These holistic modalities had a profound impact on my life, almost immediately. The healings, breakthroughs, and understandings that I gained through Reiki and crystal therapy were compelling on emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual levels for me - they were nothing short of a miracle. Energetic healing has supported me and opened my heart to a transformative power within that I didn't realize existed.

​

Creation is powerful and I have gained valuable wisdom that now help me anchor and find balance in a tumultuous world that used to control me. I have learned and am still finding new ways to feel secure in who I am. This has given me the courage to move in a direction that supports who I authentically am. Each day, I do my best to be purposeful and allow myself to feel and live life as I experience it. Taking a serious look within has not been easy, but the healing and energetic transformations are proving to be incredibly fulfilling. Many loving, supportive and caring individuals have stood by my side and walked this journey with me and I will be forever grateful for their support.
