Working with Me
I believe there is an innate intelligence within every cell of your body—the same intelligence that created and sustains the Universe. When you connect with it, peace, joy, and healing become possible. Everything you need to thrive already exists inside you. With the right support and guidance, you can uncover it and step into your full power.
It’s my passion to help people:
-
Tap into this incredible source
-
Navigate challenges with clarity and courage
-
Activate their natural, intuitive decision-making system
When we work together, I listen deeply—beyond your words—to sense what’s unspoken. I help you bring forward the real issues, give yourself permission to feel your feelings (even the dark and messy ones), and release the heavy emotions holding you back.
Honesty, integrity, and compassion are at the heart of my work. You can expect truth delivered with kindness—and maybe even a little humor along the way.
My Story
I grew up in the seventies—barefoot in the street, climbing trees, riding friends on my handlebars, playing mermaid in the pool, waking at 5 a.m. for Saturday cartoons, and racing home when the streetlights came on.
I was a creative, dyslexic, intuitive, empathic kid who knew things I shouldn’t have and felt everything—I was often bullied for being different.
Not understanding my sensitivities, I carried the emotions of others, neglected my own, and struggled with boundaries. By my thirties, the emotional weight I was carrying began to show up in my body.
Everything changed when someone suggested hypnotherapy, which eventually led me to my first Reiki class. I didn’t even know what Reiki was—but I knew I had to be there. That class changed my life and helped me rediscover myself.
My Interests
I’m a homebody at heart (my life goal might secretly be “hermit”). I love piddling around the house in my day-jammies, cleaning, organizing, or creating things—a walking meditation that keeps me present.
I’ve always had a deep love for film—not just as entertainment, but as an art form. As a kid, going to the movies was magical. I even kept a calendar of release dates—saving my money for a ticket and walking to the theater on Fridays to catch the newest releases. That reverence for storytelling eventually led me to dabble in screenwriting and make a few short films, one of which was featured at the Phoenix Film Festival and the Film Stock Film Festival. I’m currently working on a fiction novel titled When Winter Settled in Your Bones.
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me:
-
Watching films and soaking in the art of storytelling
-
Writing, reading, and studying
-
Doing yoga or meditating
-
Crafting, sewing, or doing puzzles
-
Working on websites or video editing
-
Laughing with my quirky crew of rescue animals
-
And of course… napping
At the heart of it, I’m a goofy, intuitive, creative, sometimes-grumpy Leo who loves to have conversations, laugh, explore the deep end, and help people feel a little better.
