My Story

My journey into this work began with studying Social Work, where I learned to see individuals within the context of their environments. I came to understand how our bodies, relationships, families, and communities all play crucial roles in our mental wellness. When I left my studies, I felt hopeful about helping others, but I also recognized a gap in my understanding. I began to wonder about the role of our natural world in our well-being—how can we nurture ourselves in ways that are sustainable, and how do we remember that the earth is our home, too?

​

This curiosity led me to explore sustainable agriculture, where I spent several years working on small-scale vegetable and medicinal herb farms. During this time, I developed a deep, transformative connection with the land and the plants. I began to see how nature mirrors human life—resilience, strength, growth, letting go, and healing are all present in the cycles of the earth and plants. It was here that I realized my practice could be grounded not just in theory, but in relationship—with the land, with nature, and with my community.

​

I later pursued formal training in herbal medicine through the Twin Star School of Herbal Medicine, where I received my certificate in Community Herbalism and am currently working towards my Clinical Herbalist certification. My practice is further enriched by my experience in a variety of fields, including Intimate Partner Violence, School Counseling, Low-Income Resource Support, and Hospice and Medical Grief Counseling.

​

In my work, I combine this knowledge and experience to offer a holistic, integrated approach to healing. Through my own journey and continued learning, I aim to support you on your own path toward well-being, offering a space for healing that honors the mind, body, and spirit.​

I am currently practicing with an associate license under the supervision of a fully licensed professional.
