My Story
I’ve been in conversation with plants for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is talking to the honeysuckle bush next to my childhood home when I was six. This was a spirit that would find their way back to me years later. To me, the Earth has always felt alive, responsive, and relational. And relating with the Earth is relating with God, or whatever you'd like to call the grander scheme of things going on here.
For a while, though, I lost my way. Like most healers and helpers, my own journey has led me to this work.
As a sensitive soul, I moved through long stretches of anxiety, depression, burnout, and the particular exhaustion that comes from trying to survive a society not built for deep thinkers and feelers like me. Trauma narrowed my capacity for being in my body, and I lived on edge; disconnection dulled my senses, and I felt numb. Life was simultaneously too loud and completely unfulfilling. I oscillated between panic and shutdown as a result. As I started to really heal, the first thing I noticed was my nervous system’s capacity growing, and everything else started to change from there. It’s truly amazing what becomes possible when your bandwidth for experiencing life in general isn’t constantly consumed by underlying distress!
Studying herbalism seriously and receiving training in several different energy healing modalities reoriented me to the Intelligence I’d always related to in the natural world: all Life already knows how to heal when met with the right conditions. In other words, Life’s natural flow is harmonious, and that capacity for harmony lives inherently in you and me.
Along with my particular love for botanicals, I’m a strong advocate for individual nervous system healing as a foundation for broader change. When your nervous system becomes more resilient, flexible, and robust you regain (or gain for the first time) clear access to your own agency and authenticity. And that shift ripples outward into your relationships, family, and community.
Because of this, while I support a wide range of wellness concerns, I’m especially attuned to what Chinese medicine calls the Shen—often translated as the Mind and Spirit of a person. No matter what it is that compels you to reach out to me, I pay attention to the state of the nervous system, the energetic body, and your inner child. And while I truly love to support anyone, I do have a particular interest in and affinity for cases where people are navigating physical pain, trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, or long-standing, complex health questions. I love to take a jumbled mess of question marks and present a clear, compassionate, attainable plan back to vitality.
To that end, I offer one-on-one sessions online. I offer in-office sessions in Aubrey and Denton, TX. I host workshops and events, and I handcraft small batch herbal remedies. I love to create botanical elixir menus, and my botanical bar is available for parties, events, and retreats. I occasionally make barn visits (DFW metroplex) for equine acutherapy and energy healing. Finally, I teach energy work.
