Do you struggle with anxiety, feelings of being overwhelmed by life and the state of the world? Do you feel that past events may be getting in the way of your experience of joy and wonder? Do you long for connection to yourself, others, nature and the Land, but aren't sure how to get there? You're not alone. Now more than ever, pushing away our needs and feelings and powering through to please others or just survive is leading to long-term impacts on mind, body, spirit, and relationships. Through 100% virtual sessions in Illinois, Colorado, and Missouri, I am here to help you find a better way. (Explore more on my website.)
My approach of customized mind/body/spirit methods for every client begins with understanding where you are now, challenges you're facing, and how this moment evolved into the present. Together we'll put a plan in place to help you move forward, and celebrate your successes along the way. Bring your burdens and your dreams, together we will care for them.
I am a grandparent, veteran, sustainable gardener, and animist. My work can support ancestral re-connection, land connection, or your own spiritual practices. My goal is to help you befriend your deepest self and find awe and pleasure in life, even when there is suffering. Contact me today for a free consult and we’ll get started on your journey together.
