WHO I AM

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am currently seeing a limited amount of clients and working to heal from Complex-PTSD, and from living undiagnosed Neurodiverse and Highly Sensitive. I have natural intuitive skills and blend psychology with higher consciousness wisdom to help others unlock their own inner truths.

I look to powerful female faces of God left out of church services and sermons due to patriarchal influence subjugating females. I look to Lilith, Persephone, Mary Magdalene, and The Great Mother, Diana to guide my steps. I believe the YIN YANG symbol captures the truest idea of GOD. I love the definition of an Omnist: one who believes all religions point to the truth of divine reality in some way. I also find magic in the title of Witch: one who knows who she is, who is connected to all elements, one who knows the power of intention and surrender and one who knows the divinity of every living thing. I mostly try to strip off labels and just be present with what is in an open and compassionate way. I also think we are each our own authority on hearing the voice of GOD that is within each of us.

I grew up here in Redding, CA and I love the area's beautiful surroundings. The element of water brings me the most comfort, be it the river, the creeks, the water falls, the lakes. I love the sound of rain falling and spending time in my hot tub under the stars. The sacred oak grove behind our home curves over to shelter our yard and provides an abundance of leaves in the Fall. The heat of summer in Northern California is challenging at times, but I find the heat assists me in meditation when I sink into it.

I am the mother of three adult children, the grandmother and BFF to a three year old wonder and the adopted grandmother of many. My husband, Peter, teaches psychology at Shasta College and is the very best husband in the world. My family brings meaning and joy to my life, exemplifying the unconditional love and connection that I try to embody. I want to be authentically me everywhere I go and I want to encourage others to feel safe exploring their own authenticity with me.
