Professionally, I am a healer, licensed acupuncturist, and co-founder of a wellness clinic. I am also a graduate student, currently completing my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology Degree.
My Work
Healer – Acupuncturist – Counsellor-in-Training
My approach to helping clients has changed in the last few years.
When I started on my healing journey and experienced the benefits of somatic work, I shifted the way I practice as I realized how trauma could affect our physical, mental, and spiritual health.
Currently, I am deeply influenced by attachment work and the polyvagal theory as my healing journey has been greatly helped by these modalities and by healing my attachment wounds.
A few teachers have shaped my approach and work as a practitioner. Carmen Spagnola and Patti Elledge taught me the importance of healing early relational traumas and attachment wounds. Diane Poole Heller’s groundbreaking work, DARe, on treating adult attachment wounds. Sue Johnson‘s work on Emotional Focused Therapy taught me that we can intentionally shape and repair our key relationships.
Currently, I am enrolled in Stan Tatkin’s two-year training program in a Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy (PACT).
Susan Johnson and Master Tung deeply influence my work as a registered acupuncturist and healer. I have been practicing acupuncture since 2009.
I work with individuals who seek balance, and often they come to me when they have tried Western medicine for their dis-eases but are frustrated with the process and found no relief.
Clients find me because they need help with their health. They know something needs to change; they have tried other modalities but are not seeing results.
My clients include those struggling with digestive issues, pain, addiction issues, fertility challenges, and more.
Clients work with me because I believe in taking an active approach to healing. I give you the tools and trust that you are capable of doing the work.
I am a mindful and compassionate practitioner. I am willing to be vulnerable, but firm at the same time.
Currently, I work with clients who want to take their health to the next step. People seek me out because they know I have done the work. I have been through a difficult journey, so I understand their struggles.
