My journey and passion for natural wellness began as I was navigating the medical and mental health systems trying to meet the needs of my special needs children. My education in the world of healing was fast tracked after a car accident resulted in chronic fatigue and pain. I began to understand the importance of working with all parts of ourselves to facilitate healing. 

Cranio Sacral therapy is a gentle hands on therapy that calms the nervous system, releases areas of restriction and creates a safe space for healing to occur. I truely love this modality that is always guided by the clients inner wisdom. CST quickly became my favourite modality in my own healing. Acupuncture was a close second, providing me with a structure and language to understand my experience with the world of Qi(energy) and how imbalances occur. These modalities work so well together, creating a unique  synergistic experience I'm sure you will love. 

My education includes:

- Cranio sacral therapy & SomatoEmotion Release (up to advanced level 1 & CST for Conception, Pregnancy, and Birth 1)

- Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture at MacEwan University

- Aromatherapy

- Life Coaching

- Equine Facilitated Wellness (rooted in the psychology of Dr Gordon Neufeld)

- Lymphatic balancing-lower quadrant

- My own traumas and healing have been my greatest teacher and have expanded my ability to hold space for others.

I don't know how mental or emotional regulation is even possible, without involving the body and nervous system. I am a strong believer in the resiliency of the human spirit and our bodies ability to return to homeostasis, sometimes we just need support getting there. I look forward to working with you to help you find or deepen your own balance and self-connection as you move towards your own individual wellness goals, through these modalities that I truly love.

My passions include supporting people with: 

- Mental health challenges including trans-generational trauma, developmental trauma and attachment issues 

- Fertility, pregnancy and postpartum recovery and integration

- Chronic illness or pain

- Scar acupuncture

I'm also passionate about making wellness services accessible to all. My focus is on aiding people with low incomes without benifits, primarily with a focus on pregnancy/postpartum and/or trauma.
