May we remember to be human is sacred.
My Background
I’m a deep believer that we all have a particular soul beauty, born to radiate the glory of God in this world. My background is in various forms of the healing arts: Psychotherapy, Wilderness Guiding, Worship Leading, Personal Training, Soul-infused Artistry with The Animas Valley Institute, and Psychedelic-assisted therapy. I have also undertaken the task of interfaith spirituality through living in a L’Arche community in Washington D.C. and studying at the Action and Contemplation School in Albuquerque, NM (In 2020), embracing the perennial tradition, which knows that an emblem of the holy exists within all cultures, traditions and spiritual paths. Through all these endeavors, I have learned that at the core of each of us is the desire to be loved for who we truly are. Many of us lost connection to our true self when we were children. It is reconnecting to the one of us before we got hurt by our family systems or oppressive cultures that lead us back into a life of vibrancy, trust, connection, creativity, enlivenment, and belonging.
