Certified Holistic Health Practitioner

In 1999 I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, chronic migraines and severe depression and so began my journey into a very dark and lonely place. For 6 years I was a prescription "zombie" taking over 22 pills a day and spending most of my days lying in bed in a pool of my own tears. I was barely able to function without assistance and a life outside my house was almost nonexistant. Even with the love and support of my husband and family, I was in a desperate place. I had gained over 100lbs in a year, my friends had abandoned me and I felt like a worthless burden to the world. As I had always been an active, self confident and strong person, these chronic illnesses had brought me to my knees. I was beaten and ready to end it all.....

I was always researching for cures, anything to alleviate the torture. I made a conscious decision in May of 2005 to find a way to get well. I found an alternative doctor who helped me wean off the drugs and added supplementation, detoxification, acupuncture and other therapies. By Novemeber of 2005 I was pharmaceutical free and so began my journey back to health. My recovery was so profound that I wanted to learn as much as I could to help other people suffering in the dark and lonely place of "chronic illness" and so I went back to school at the age of 50. I got my life back  and started a whole new career!

The philosophy of my practice is to"take control of your own health"! I support my clients  mind, body and spirit and guide them on their journey! I give them the tools and the encouragement but it is up to the individual to follow through. There is nothing more rewarding to me than to see a client enjoying life again!

I continue to learn and grow as a practitioner and as a person and I am grateful for my journey into the darkness for it has made the light now, so much brighter!
