About me
My journey has been one of transformation and discovery. It began with a path in kinesiology, where I delved into the intricate workings of the human body. I wanted to explore the medical field and determine if an M.D. was on my path so I became a paramedic to scope out the field. I was deeply involved in people's crises, witnessing firsthand the raw spectrum of human experience—pain, pleasure, life, and death. It was in these moments that my interest in all aspects of this human experience expanded, igniting a curiosity to understand the depths of our existence.
Amidst this journey, I encountered a personal health challenge—a cyst on my ovary. Aware of the mind-body connection, I embarked on a journey of self-healing with unwavering determination. This pivotal moment sparked a profound shift in my life, leading me to explore various modalities of healing.

What even is healing? This question was guiding me as I immersed myself in Life Centered Therapy and deepened my wisdom through psychedelic and psychic training. Along the way, I grappled with the challenges of cyclical living, navigating the ebbs and flows of life with a newfound understanding of connection.
But it wasn't just personal growth that fueled my journey. I received a powerful message—an inner calling to uplift humanity and help raise the frequency of the masses. This revelation ignited a fire within me, driving me to create connections—within the brain, within the body, and within communities.
I believe in the power of connection to forge new neural synapses in the brain, to heal and listen to the wisdom of the body, and to co-regulate within communities. Because we don't have to do it alone. Together, we can journey towards greater freedom, joy, and fulfillment.
In addition to these modalities, I also utilize energetic healing techniques, work with multi-dimensional beings, and support psychedelic integration and preparation. It's a role for which I am well-suited, drawing upon my diverse experiences and understanding of the human experience.
I now offer therapy that is evidence-based and incorporates energetic, somatic (body-centered) and mindfulness principles. I also use a therapeutic mirror to help you find your way towards deeper awareness which can help you remove blocks that might have been keeping you stuck in an unhelpful pattern. I incorporate my experience as a social worker, paramedic, yoga teacher and kinesiologist to provide you with powerful therapeutic support.
Root to Rise was born as a platform where I could provide therapy that incorporated multiple approaches. It recognizes the various conditions that are needed for a person to grow into a healthy, authentic expression of themselves. It is known that the tallest trees have the deepest roots. Roots however, grow in the dark and navigate through boulders and rough terrain. There is great wisdom and healing potential when navigating this unknown terrain!
I am here to help you discover the resources within and surrounding you.
I treasure the complexity of life and death and I am honoured by each journey that I get to witness. My intention as a therapist is to support you in consciously facing and moving through difficult or limiting experiences so that you may emerge on the other side with a greater sense of freedom and well-being. You’ll likely find that transformation happens along the way!
My passion now lies in traversing taboo topics with fearless curiosity. From candid conversations about the intricacies of feminine anatomy—embracing the sacred journey of vulvas opening to pleasure—to exploring the transformative power of embodiment and cyclical living, I am an advocate for radical change and liberation. Beyond the physical, I am deeply engaged in channeling inner wisdom and harnessing the vibrational frequencies that shape our existence, offering pathways to healing and self-discovery.
