I started in the health and wellness industry working as a nursing assistant and soon after a medication technician with additional training in Emotional Healing- a form of somatic therapy that focuses on releasing stagnant emotions and settling hyperactive nervous systems. After working in rehabilitation, end-of-life care, and residential care, I settled into memory care where I found a great use for Emotional Healing for those living with Alzheimer's and Dementia.

At the beginning of my second year in memory care, I was encouraged to start offering Emotional Healing to the general public and started Blue Foot Healing. I later found that Reiki Healing and Tarot Reading blended beautifully in practice and I began integrating them into my Emotional Healing sessions.

While I love working in memory care, I quickly became discouraged by the pharmacological approaches to treating chronic & terminal illnesses. Especially those of the brain and nervous system. This led me to take on an internship and later an apprenticeship, with The Herb Shoppe on Mississippi Ave. My mentors and friends, Ann Meyers and Amanda Furbee were among the first of many influential herbalists I would come to know and love as I began cultivating my practice with herbal therapies.

Traditional medicine is inspiring! The amount of knowledge shared throughout many different schools of medicine and the cultures behind them is overwhelming and exciting at the same time.

In my herbal studies, I kept running into manual therapies and started to feel a calling to work with clients in this way. I enrolled in an extensive massage therapy program with East West College of the Healing Arts and graduated in the spring of 2023 with an emphasis in Spa Therapies, Structural Bodywork, Thai Massage, Swedish Massage, and Craniosacral Therapy.

While my path up the mountain has not been straightforward, choosing to specialize in pain relief could not have been more clear. Every therapeutic approach I have studied offers unique ways of healing different aspects or components of pain. And I am honored to have walked this path in order to bring these healing arts to you.
