Travel Information
N/A
I am a mama and woman, shaped by love and loss, who has walked the winding path of grief. Nature and ritual have been my teachers, showing me how the elements move through us and how our bodies carry both wounds and wisdom. I guide individuals and couples through relational seasons, grief, and life transitions, weaving counselling, somatic healing, trauma-sensitive yoga, and spiritual practice to create grounded, transformative spaces.
I work with somatic experiencing, movement, family constellations, CBT, mindfulness, breathwork, and parts work/inner child work, to support lasting change. Through embodiment, we listen to the body, uncover patterns, and open space for transformation. I love holding space for others to reconnect with their breath, their body, and the earth beneath them — witnessing the beauty that arises when we come home to ourselves.
