My work is to create a context of support so you can safety touch in on what has been painful and integrate the experience back into your body-mind.
There is only so much we can do on our own; we are meant to heal in relationship.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND PERSONAL STATEMENT
My work and life are informed by ongoing personal inquiry of cultural and ancestral healing, and analysis of the impacts of colonization in my practice. I am on a journey and welcome corrections to my mistakes. I value equality, curiosity, and transparency. My worldview is informed by my lived experience as a bisexual cis-woman, daughter of two medical doctors. My heritage is fourth generation settler of English, German, and Irish ancestry on my mother’s side and Scottish and French settler in Mik’maw territory (maritimes) for nearly 3oo years on my father’s side. I was raised on the Indigenous territories of the Anishinaabe, Nakoda, and Lək̓ʷəŋən Nations. I now work and play in ancient Sinixt territory as well as Ktunaxa and Syilx. With humility and heart, I give thanks to the ancestors, communities, lands, and teachings that support my life and practice.
