About Me
What you believe matters. When you believe ALL IS POSSIBLE, that becomes your REALITY and lived experience.
Personal Journey and Personality
People frequently describe me as an empathic, compassionate, and approachable individual who they can easily connect with. I believe that through my personal journey, I have gained a deeper understanding of myself and the world around me. Allowing me to overcome my inner resistance and present the best version of myself. This is the reason I am confident in my ability to assist you in also becoming your greatest self. Â
Our natural state is one of peace, health and happiness and we can all find this state within ourselves and create our life from this place. Achieving healing, balance, and peace is a process and is possible for us all. In my experience, happiness and a state of freedom is waiting for us on our path of self-discovery. As we learn from life we gain knowledge, wisdom, understanding, and a trust in life that enables us to overcome even the most challenging situations with greater ease. Â
My journey is one of self-discovery and inner and outer transformation that has created harmony and true joy in my life. My passion is to assist you in achieving this harmony, love, joy, and peace in your life also.
Your passions LIGHT YOU UP. When you find what you love, your HEART SHINES.
Finding My Passion
For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to help people feel their best and live a happy, health life.  I acquired three post-graduate degrees at university in an effort to discover my passion. The Masters in Counselling Psychology and Bachelors in Kinesiology allow me to pursue a career aligned with the goal of helping people overcome their physical and mental health challenges. In addition to my education, I also spent time learning about life and myself through my meditation practices. My therapeutic approach and my practice evolved out of my desire to help people, my training and education, and my personal spiritual evolution. Â
It was the combination of all my education, training, and lived experiences that led the way for an integrative therapeutic approach that heals the mind, body, and emotions. I am truly grateful to be able to do this work and share myself with you all in this way. I will always strive to give you my most authentic self and am committed to helping you meet your goals, walking with you on your journey of healing, and helping you navigate through various life challenges.
It's about realizing yourself and creating your life.
When we let go of the idea of what Should be, we open up to the POSSIBILITIES of what CAN be.
Hobbies & Interests
There is something so beautiful and peaceful about being in silence with yourself. I frequently enjoy curling up with a cup of tea, meditating when I feel inspired, going for a hike to reconnect with nature, or baking a gluten-free treat in my kitchen. Â
Food can be very healing and I love to learn about nutritional sciences and try various foods which feed the body, mind, and soul. In addition to learning about nutrition and diet, I also enjoy learning and practicing the energy healing arts.  In my spare time, I also enjoy listening to music, being in nature, practicing Indian classical dance, drawing, writing poetry, and spending time with loved ones.Â
Completing house improvement projects is another one of my pastimes. I have a profound affection for animals and have had several pets throughout the years, including my present dog, Rocky. I hope this helps you get to know me a bit better. Â
