Healing includes the story of our why… what we value, what brings us joy, and what propels us forward. Before I have the honor of hearing your story, here’s a little of mine.

I grew up in Southeast Alaska and feel most at home surrounded by wind, water, and trees. I believe in the elemental aspects of ‘place’ and their influence on energy. My current home in the Pacific Northwest is a dynamic blend of city-vibes and the calm of natural spaces. Adventures near and far are best when shared with my partner, grown daughter, and other members of my “family-pod”.

My road to Reiki began in 2012 while pursuing a nursing degree. It’s not a coincidence that Reiki found me during a difficult time in my life. Reiki has a way of presenting itself when it’s needed most. A guide in my personal and professional life, Reiki is a tool that has helped me with anxiety, chronic pain, and other health concerns. I’ve been fortunate to study under several Reiki masters, with a style most similar to Reiki Master Diane Larsen of Seattle City Reiki.

At the start of the pandemic my Reiki guests were asking, “What else? What else is there to help me with what I’m going through?” At the same time, I was asking myself, “What more do I need in my own life to feel balanced and at ease?” After studying with the Mayo Clinic’s Coaching program, I began combining evidenced-based heath coaching techniques with the principles of Reiki energy healing. This blend of science and ‘woo’ supports all aspects of wellbeing, helping fill gaps in traditional healthcare to provide a path and plan forward.

In addition to my private practice, I also enjoy supporting a group of talented practitioners at Nurture Wellbeing in West Seattle and within Swedish Medical Centers as a Contracted Wellness Associate.

I look forward to hearing the story of your why and how it informs your wellness journey. Let’s talk about how we can work together in a Discovery Session.
