About
My journey to energy alchemy
My journey to energy medicine started with my own healing crisis back in 2009. A traumatic brain injury opened up my psychic, intuitive abilities that I had suppressed since I was a child. When I learned that Western medicine couldn't support what I was experiencing, I sought to heal myself through natural, drug-free and holistic solutions.
With endless curiosity, an insatiable desire to learn and an aptitude for learning systems to understand the nature of reality,
I studied dozens healing modalities to unravel my inner world and support others with a high sensitivity to subtle energies who had experienced concussion, trauma and nervous system dysregulation.
My life's path throughout the last 17 years has taken many turns through all of the major life transitions that I now support others to navigate: trauma, illness, near death experiences, loss, divorce, relocation, career change, spiritual awakenings and opening up psychic intuitive gifts.
My life experiences have given me a tremendous compassion for others' suffering, the strength and resilience it takes to move through it and the ability to shine light in dark places.
My journey in practice
Over the last decade in practice, I shifted my awareness from diagnoses and physical conditions to the energetic and emotional root causes that hold them in place. While the tools, modalities and wealth of foundational knowledge give me many options to support my clients and explore creative solutions, what my teachers and experiences of true inner alchemy have taught me is that we each have the power, agency and choice to create lasting change through our thoughts, words and actions.
Healing occurs in a place of presence, deep listening, insight and awareness. As I continue to learn and evolve, what helps me the most is listening deeply to myself and others. The more I can fine tune my awareness to the nonphysical and trust my inner wisdom, the greater capacity I have to do the same for others.
Each person has a unique energetic template and skill set that they can use to support themselves. As a guide and facilitator, I help people acknowledge these strengths, while at the same time supporting their connection to the earth, alignment with their intention and creation of balance in life with good diet, rest, exercise and doing things that bring them joy.
what excites me
I’m most excited to help you discover your own unique alchemy. This could be a creative passion, insight, unlocked memory or often times an actual energetic process that magically unfolds in session. Each individual already holds the keys to their own self-healing. When I see someone become conscious of their own way of transmuting energy and acknowledge their beautiful gifts with self-love, I feel this huge love and expansiveness that fills me up with joy!
I create the environment to help you transform old stories, traumas and limiting beliefs into gifts and sources of empowerment. I am here to guide you to doorways that you don’t know how to access alone. All of the information is already located inside of yourself. Once you discover what opportunities are available to you, then you can make meaningful changes in your life that lead to greater joy and freedom.
My Approach
Creating safe space for transformation.
My approach to transformative healing is creating an energy field that is led by your intention and body's intuitive wisdom. In this container, I listen to your story beyond the physical words and sense and feel the energetic influences behind your experience. I guide you into your body's felt intelligence and use my singing voice, tuning forks and guided somatic awareness to help you release and transform your energetic blocks and wounds into your greatest gifts.
What makes my work different is my ability to translate vibrational fields of nonphysical information through sound using my voice, singing and clairvoyance. I can sense more than what is happening physically and on the surface - accessing psychic, intuitive listening that opens pathways of light where someone was not able to perceive possibilities before.
My training and experience
Acknowledging my Teachers and Lineages
I've been really lucky to have so many incredible teachers, facilitators and mentors assist me on my path.
Between 2009 and 2013, my studies and focus were largely on various meditation traditions, including Kriya Yoga with the Art of Living, Soto Zen Buddhist meditation with the Zendo in Milwaukee, WI, where I was attending undergraduate school for my Journalism and German degrees. During my fall semester in 2012, I studied Japanese religions, culture and Buddhist traditions with Buddhist scholar Brian Victoria and journalist Aimee Tsujimoto in a program based in Kyoto, Japan through Antioch University.
I first began my East Asian medicine studies in 2013 as an 3-year apprentice with acupressure and reflexology practitioner Don Hughes, who passed down his lineages of 5 Element acupressure from the Acupressure Institute founded by Michael Reed Gach, Jin Shin Jitsu, Vietnamese, Tibetan and Egyptian reflexology, martial arts qi gong, Tonganese oral tradition from his teachers and Vietnamese herbalist Dr. Hong Duc Pham. Seeing the magic of herbs while collaborating with Dr. Pham, who was providing herbs to Don's bodywork clients, motivated me to later go back to grad school for Chinese herbalism.
I received my Master in Oriental Medicine degree from Southwest Acupuncture College in Boulder, Colorado, a 4-year intensive program that gave me a comprehensive foundation of Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture, internal medicine herbalism and adjunct modalities like moxa, cupping, e-stim and magnet therapy, I studied herbs with Debbie Shapiro and Jiayu Zhang and learned acupuncture and clinical practice from acupuncturists Joanne Neville, Dr. Nate Mohler, Laurel Lewis, Jennifer Leonard, Dr. Tuesday Wasserman, Albert Stern, Ted Hall and Tristan McCoy. During my grad school years, I worked as a herbal pharmacist at Chautauqua Apothecary and learned from the herbal formulations of the Dr. Chip Chace, Dr. Jason Blalack and Kate Blalack, who all had a big influence on my relationship with herbs.
During my grad school years, I became interested in the ancestral healing work of Family Constellations Therapy and began my experience as a representative for Jack Blackwell's facilitator training group. After receiving several constellations, I was determined to go deeper into the modality and studied much of the work of Dr. Stephan Hausner, who focuses on ancestral healing for health conditions. From late 2020 until mid-2022, I teamed up with facilitations Rosabelle Rice, Elizabeth Lynn Rohr and Cheryl Walker to revive the constellations community in Boulder after COVID affected people's ability to gather in person. Together we held monthly constellations to support the community moving through times of great stress.
My greatest teacher, facilitator and influence who I've experienced deeply transformative alchemy for the past 6 years is acoustic alchemist Renee S LeBeau. When I met Renee in 2019, that is when my intuitive extrasensory perceptions really started turning on and when I began my journey of remembrance as a multi-dimensional being. Renee has assisted me through numerous life transitions and mind-bending dark nights of the soul. Without the hundreds of hours of helping me navigate and unravel my own inner world and exploring conversations about multi-dimensional reality, I would be a fundamentally different person today. Throughout the years, I have experienced and benefited from her 1:1 session offerings, in-person acoustic alchemy sound baths, her year-long Sophia Wisdom Group immersion and her acoustic soundscapes, Sophianic Symphony and Metatron's Heart.
In 2023, I participated in metaphysical healer and teacher Jeffrey Wilson's weekly Soul Warrior Network, where I received energy clearings and a deeper educational understanding of metaphysical and biofield energetics to support my holistic view of relationships between the body, mind, emotions and energy field.
At the end of 2023, I received facilitative assistance from two incredible light language and multi-dimensional healers, DelSol and Fabiene Lui, who opened me up even more to my ancient remembrance and capacity as a multi-dimensional being. I thank DelSol for helping me crack open my heart space and speak my ancient light language, and I thank Fabiene Lui for helping me reconnect me to my love of dragons and harmonics within my energy body.
Throughout 2024, I was also facilitated by biofield tuning and Crystalline soul healing practitioner Marion Hobbs, who helped me tremendously, so much so that I started my self-study of tuning fork frequencies and began incorporating it into my work.
MY CURRENT WORK AND INSPIRATION
My current 1:1 facilitation is highly intuitive and co-creative, as I see and observe energy shifts throughout the physical body and biofield. I enjoy teaching and working with groups in various collaborative environments to assist people in their multi-dimensional remembrance and greater embodiment. I am in the process of using writing as an alchemical tool for personal transformation and leading groups to connect with their relationship to the land with sound and guided inner work along energetic ley lines.
Underpinning my multi-dimensional sight is my foundation in Five Element Oriental Medicine, East Asian meridian and reflexology systems and my relationship with the plant world and the dragons. :)
A recent addition to my practice is supporting people with noninvasive light therapy patches that are used on specific acupuncture points to stimulate chemical changes in the body that assist the body's natural healing mechanisms and ability to hold more light.
