Whole Earth Healing Arts is a sanctuary for personal and collective healing.

Long before I practiced bodywork, there was a simple question that guided my own life path: What allows us to become more fully ourselves?‍ That question would arise at every step of my journey—from studying holistic education, exploring movement and contemplative practices, to discovering Craniosacral Therapy. Looking back, I don't see these parts of my life as separate chapters. They were all leading toward the same understanding: healing is less about fixing ourselves and more about allowing the conditions for the body to return to its natural state of harmony and balance.

I believe that healing begins with relationship—relationship to ourselves, to one another, and to the living world around us and within. My role is not to fix or direct your experience, but to create an environment of trust, safety, and belonging where your own inner wisdom can begin to emerge..

While I practice CST and Touch for Health, the work itself extends far beyond any single modality. These practices are expressions of a way of living—one that values deep listening, presence, curiosity, and reverence for the wisdom already present within each person.

Background

My journey into this work began long before I ever considered becoming a practitioner.

As a teenager, I found myself on the table of a gifted healer. At the time, I had no language for what I was experiencing. I simply knew that I entered each session carrying one experience of myself and left inhabiting another. Something profound was happening—something that reached beyond muscles, beyond conversation, and beyond anything I had previously understood about healing.

That experience quietly changed the course of my life.

It wasn't until years later that I encountered CST as the paradigm and framework for my own health and healing. Rather than feeling like I had discovered something entirely new, it felt as though I had finally found the language for what I had been experiencing all along. The qualities that first drew me to my own healing—stillness, presence, gentle touch, deep listening, and trust in the body's inherent wisdom had found their home.

Craniosacral Therapy is a practice and art of listening—to slow down enough to perceive the subtle rhythms that organize health and support the body's natural expression of balance. It continues to shape not only how I work with others, but how I move through my own life. Over the years it has become less of something I do and more of a way of being.

My background in holistic education has been equally formative. Through my undergraduate studies, my thesis on The Inner Child: Explorations into Transformative Learning, and years of teaching in nature-based and Waldorf-inspired schools, I came to see that education and healing are deeply connected. Both invite us to become more present, more aware, and more fully ourselves.

Together with my students, we followed the rhythms of the seasons, learned from the wisdom of the land, and discovered the profound healing power of presence. Through movement, creativity, play, and shared wonder; I witnessed how nature mirrors the unfolding of our own lives. Those years continue to shape the way I meet each person who comes to my table.

Today as I continue to deepen my studies a common thread arises—more I learn, the more I appreciate that knowledge alone is not enough. Healing asks for presence before technique, listening before intervention, and relationship before resolution.

As a traveler by nature, I currently reside in Bend, Oregon.

I look forward to meeting you.
