I was born and raised in Freeport, New York.  Since I was just a little tyke, helping others was something that interested me, greatly.  I attended my first year of college as a communications major, not really sure what to pursue at eighteen years of age.  My father, sensing my lack of direction, suggested I look into becoming a Registered Nurse. “They make really great money, have a professional license, and will never be out of a job!”  He was right, and suddenly, I was well on my way to becoming THE Registered Nurse, saving the world, one patient at a time.

It didn’t take very long before I realized that a career in the western model of “healthcare” was truly nothing more than managed illness. I suddenly realized that I wasn’t going to be healing anybody, and that I needed to pivot from a career that, at one time, had made so much sense to my spirit.

In July of 2013, I leapt into my endeavors as a full time entrepreneur, and have never looked back, except to remind myself from whence I’ve come. Since defecting from an infected healthcare system, I have only added to my professional resume, achieving certifications to further my work as a Spiritual Holistic Wellness Practitioner. If someone had told me that I would eventually willingly leave my career as a Registered Nurse to pursue something else, I would have laughed at them. Now, I can’t imagine a lifetime career in Nursing, nor can I imagine working for anybody other than myself. 

Traveling is a huge part of what brings peace, joy and connection to my soul.  I frequently incorporate trips all over the world to see clients of mine, and work with new folks as well. One of the main points of feedback I get from my clients, is that they feel very safe, cared for, and seen by me, in my work. They feel as if they can safely open up to me, and share aspects of self that they might not be willing to look at, even by themselves, much less in the presence of another. Non-judgment is tantamount to my work, and clients can feel free to share whatever burdens their spirit when in session. Vulnerability becomes more accessible, which makes for powerful, precipitous shifts to happen for clients. 

I personally have done decades worth of cognitive therapy, group therapy, and personal development work through various retreats and medicine journeys.  I know that it’s impossible to hold clear, unencumbered space if I’m not well within myself, that wellness begins in my thoughts, and can become manifest once I am clear in my thinking and perspective. I teach clients how to harness this clarity and take better charge of their own journeys. By “practicing what I preach” to the best of my abilities, I have seen incredible, full life shifts as a result of working with clients. I look forward to working with you, too, in the future!
