My Spiritual Healing Journey
My spirituality is built on the idea I had when I was three—that we are all one. I was raised Unitarian, baptized Episcopalian, and began learning about different religions and spiritual paths at a young age. In the fifth grade, a coven visited the Unitarian Church my family attended and the coven’s focus on nature spirituality captivated me. I began studying earth-based religions and learned how to use tarot, a divination tool while I was in middle school.
When I was twelve I experienced sexual trauma which subconsciously catalyzed me to choose a life of numbing the pain that was still trapped in my body. The childhood trauma became buried, through a myriad of psychological and physiological survival strategies, and did not resurface as a full memory until I was in my mid-thirties. This led me to begin studying trauma and dissociative amnesia. Since then, I have worked with several phenomenal therapists and began studying somatic healing approaches. After years of self abuse and sabotaging behaviors I found a therapist who specializes in woman’s trauma. She guided me to take my power back and shed self limiting beliefs that long held me in phycological bondage. My experiences have led me to want to help others who are likewise on a spiritual healing journey. I believe that through self empowering guidance and positive healthy community we can take our power back and heal ourselves-mind, body, and spirit.
In my thirties I began broadening my spiritual healing knowledge and practices to include a focus on world traditions, and I delved into Eastern spiritual traditions while studying and teaching World Literature at the University of North Georgia and living in China in 2013. While in China, I studied yoga and meditation through the Liaocheng School Soul Dhyana and had the privilege to work with a Vietnamese yogic nun who greatly impacted my meditation practice.
Now, through developing my claircognizant abilities and years of personal and professional experience I am pleased to provide services to those seeking greater wholeness and wellbeing as they re-awaken their own intuitive healing capabilities.
