My spiritual journey began after a shocking brain cancer diagnosis.  I was fortunate to be blessed with the best medical care team as well as a support team in my family and friends.  After completing my treatments, and accepting what would be a “new normal,” I had a profound gratitude for being given the chance at another day and I renewed my zest for life.  I learned meditation/breathwork or breathing techniques that helped through the cancer treatments and endless MRI scans that will continue for the rest of my life.  I have always loved water, the link of fluidity to the ebb and flow of life, I find a calmness in nature that is beautifully healing.  I believe we are given challenges to bring us closer to our true selves. I have continued to grow on my spiritual path having attended Energy Medicine school, obtaining Reiki Master certification,  while enjoying helping my clients through the Dragonflies and Amber community. I have now also partnered with Dana Farber Cancer Institute providing support to others impacted through breathwork, visualization & meditation.

Being an animal lover since I was a child and feeling like I connected with them on another level, I became a dog mom to Ginger who not only became my therapy dog through my treatments, but my best friend for the next 13 years.  No longer taking my next breath for granted and coupled with my thirst for knowledge, I began my official meditation practice and studied restorative/yin yoga.  I am certified through the UMass Memorial MBSR program (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) founded by Jon Kabat-Zinn as well as studied in CBT therapy for anxiety (Cognitive Based Therapy).  I am also certified in Animal Reiki. I was introduced to essential oils when my beloved Gingergirl crossed the rainbow bridge as a tool for emotional healing.  Having undergone extensive chemotherapy,  I soon found another passion in learning and became a living example of the benefits of plant medicine. I love developing new blends to assist with physical and emotional healing using these therapeutic tools.  

Applying my education & certifications in reiki, mindfulness, meditation, breathwork, brain health, my mission is to bring these complementary elements together to help people find their rainbow during storm clouds.  As my journey has been ever changing, I have learned what a resilient being I am & have embraced this.  It’s through these modalities, I can show you the healing benefits we all possess within ourselves.
