I am a profound healer.
I believe we have within us all that we need to experience love, wholeness, and expression of the divine source which makes us who we are.
I serve as a coach, helping people to draw upon their own wisdom and develop better relationships with themselves and others. The route to each person’s wisdom is through the body/mind connection, and I help people strengthen that connection through several paths, including:
Shamanism
I live the Process of Shamanism as I connect with, summon and work with spirits that pervade the material and non-material worlds of the Universe. I am a conduit of Source and I interact, see and communicate with many aspects of the Living Substance of and beyond the Human Dimension. These aspects include: animals, plants, spirit animals, Faerie realm, Angels, Guardians (who can appear as Ancestors), planets, stars, beings of light, messengers of light and many others. By merging with these dimensions, The Creator works through me to guide, heal, see the past, present and future realities to assist in healing limitations, dream work, Land healing, help with transitions and work with nature spirits. Shamanism is the sacred act of Service and allows me to walk between the worlds, enveloping and Invoking Divine Vibrations.
Soul Retrieval
As a Shaman, I connect with a portion of a persons consciousness that has slipped into another state of the ethers. The soul is believed to have been severed into parts and those parts must be re-integrated. This is a harmonizing event, and my guardians help me move through the dimension while performing soul retrievals. Soul Retrievals are beneficial in connecting back to creativity, becoming more focused and alleviating the feeling of disconnectedness. This is a sacred journey to becoming whole.
Healing Touch
As a Certified Healing Touch Practitioner, I can touch body, mind, emotion, and spirit through this therapeutic process, and each individual is empowered to participate fully in the healing journey. Healing Touch uses hands-on and energy-based techniques to balance and align the human energy field. Healing Touch can lead to physical, emotional, and spiritual healing.
Psychotherapy and Breath-work
I hold a M.A. degree in Counseling Psychology from Northeastern State University, Oklahoma. I offer counseling for individuals, couples, and families, healing breaches created by communication breakdown. I assist clients in processing guilt, abandonment, anger, hurt, and lack of self-love. I also offer mediation for people experiencing relationship difficulties of any kind. I coach clients to breathe more deeply, because often people respond to stress or discomfort by breathing shallowly, which is not helpful to them in establishing health. Deep breathing helps to restore self-esteem and aids in the release of pent-up emotion.
CranioSacral Therapy
I offer a gentle, hands-on method of manipulating points on the body to enhance the function of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal chord. Clients find CranioSacral Therapy often relieves PMS, migraine headaches, compressed vertebrae, whiplash, tendonitis, kidney failure, Attention Deficit Disorder, and other forms of physical discomfort.
Tibetan Chakra Therapy
This form of therapy is a series of ten sessions conducted over a twenty-week period. Chakra therapy assists in releasing energy held in the body's memory cells from the challenges of this life experience and possibly from previous lives as well. The process involves mantra toning and concentration in the seven major areas of consciousness contained in the wheels of light called chakras. Energy work enhances the process, and journaling and directed emailing with me may also prove helpful. Chakra therapy is a way to eliminate fears and to clear oneself so that daily life is not derailed by undigested experience. Chakra therapy allows the client to feel old emotions and release them, in order to integrate the lessons of difficult experiences. I have been trained in this therapy by Katherine Torres, my teacher for the past two years. I am a student in Katherine's Daughters of the Moon course, which is based in the mystical school traditions.
Daughters of the Moon, Women's Spirit Workshops
I am the coordinator of workshops and trainings conducted by Katherine Torres in Texas, and I facilitate monthly full moon ceremonies. For information, phone 281-773-4349.
Healing With Earth Angels
This is a day-long workshop for healers who want to expand their practice to include healing with crystals, and for anyone interested in learning how to use crystals to enhance personal health and the well-being of home and office. We will work with four or five crystals.
I assist people in finding, recognizing, and strengthening a spiritual core within themselves. Through this core they experience connection to this planet, to other living beings, and to whatever their belief system is. Finding our spiritual core means uniting with the source of love within each of us. Once we resolve anger, hurt, and self-doubt, we are able to explore our passions and joys. Once our energy is flowing freely, we are able to be fully ourselves and to embrace spirit in whatever ways we experience it. Spiritual therapy helps us to live in a state of free-flowing love for ourselves and others, which is spiritual health.
People come to me for many reasons—sometimes they identify a problem as “physical,” and sometimes they feel they have a “relationship problem,” or an “emotional” difficulty. A typical session begins with a check-in, and then, based on the needs of the individual, we may progress to table-work, or we may choose verbal communication, written assignments, or forms of play and physical expression. I find there is almost always a mind/body component involved in any relational, emotional, or physical disturbance. The combination of talk, breath, touch, and energy work helps to eliminate energy blocks so that clients can restore their connection with the source of love within.
Everyone experiences difficulties in life. When difficulties arise, our own inner wisdom often leads us to react in ways that serve us well at the time of the difficulty. But reactions which work well at one time, in one kind of difficulty, can become habits which are no longer helpful or which actually harm us. Our bodies hold hurts, wounds, and fears long after the situations that caused them have ceased to exist. Sometimes our habitual ways of reacting result in physical discomfort; sometimes they result in emotional barriers that lead to relational difficulties with partners, family, or co-workers. Such barriers, which we can describe as “blockages,” inhibit us from giving and receiving love. For many people, there is a breakdown of communication between “head” and “heart,” resulting in a feeling of conflict, confusion, or indecision. Often, when a person is lying on a table, more body/mind connection can occur. Lying down, we become more vulnerable, less protected; we are able to soften, and an energy block may dissolve. A breakthrough may occur. Clarity may arise, and with that the ability to choose wisely.

I don’t “fix” problems. I hold the space for healing to occur. I coach clients in recognizing and acknowledging their own wisdom. I am a vessel through which healing energies can flow, building on the client’s desire to experience healing. People whose energies are clear experience vitality, strength of purpose, and personal effectiveness.
Healing doesn’t always mean being “cured”; sometimes it means a spiritual peacefulness in the process of working through illness or resolving an unhealthy relationship. Most of the time, when people experience healing on the level of the body, they find that they develop greater toleration of pain. Sometimes they experience freedom from pain. Persons seeking relational healing find they are able to give and receive love more profoundly. Sometimes that helps them to experience healing of their relationship difficulties; sometimes they discover strengthened self-love that enables them to end an unhealthy relationship. We always have success; there is always healing. But it is not possible to predict how that healing will manifest. That’s why healing is an art.
I am a trained hospice volunteer. I work as a spiritual trainer with the terminally ill and their families helping all with the transition process and then the grieving process after.
