Hi there! Thanks for coming to my page. I have been a massage therapist and bodyworker for almost 10 years, after attending the Center for Massage and Natural Health in Asheville, NC and becoming licensed in 2016. I have been studying plant medicine in some regard since 2007, including completing the Holistic Herbalism program through the Blue Ridge School of Herbal Medicine also in 2016. I have attended many trainings and continuing education courses over the years, often with a focus on understanding the nervous system, post traumatic stress disorder, and complex trauma. One of my favorite things about being a massage therapist is the opportunity to continue learning and evolving. I have completed the first year of the Somatic Experiencing training and am currently deep into a three year biodynamic craniosacral course. I am also in an ongoing mentorship with with an elder pioneer in the field of somatics.

As with many people who are drawn to various care work, I gravitated towards body work through following my own, ever evolving journey towards becoming my best self in service to the collective whole. I am continuously humbled by the ways in which our bodies hold a wealth of intelligence and believe in touch as a way to access the wisdom and road-maps to resilience that we all carry. While bodywork is often seen as a luxury service, I feel (and have experienced myself) that receiving this type of care with regularity can be deeply supportive physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
