Credentials & Training

My work is rooted in continued learning, embodied practice, and a deepening relationship with the body, the nervous system, and our connection to nature.

I believe healing is not something we force or achieve all at once. It is a process of listening, noticing, and gently reconnecting with ourselves and the world around us. My training continues to shape the way I hold space for this process with curiosity, presence, and respect for each person’s unique experience.

Somatic Intuitive Healing®

SIH Training Center | 2025–2026

My primary somatic education is in Somatic Intuitive Healing® (SIH), completed through the Somatic Intuitive Healing® Training Center at Moon Vibe Sanctuary in Portland, Oregon. The SIH School is a NAOEP-approved program through the National Alliance of Energy Practitioners (NAOEP).

This advanced somatic bodywork program is rooted in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, Somatic Experiencing®, Polarity Therapy, and Yoga & Movement Therapy.

This training has deepened my understanding of somatic awareness, intuitive practice, and nervous system support, while strengthening my trust in the body’s innate wisdom and its capacity to guide us toward greater connection and wholeness.

Additional Training & Continuing Education

Alongside my Somatic Intuitive Healing® training, I continue to explore somatic approaches, nervous system support, intuitive practice, grief work, and our relationship with the living world.

Reiki

Reiki Levels 1 & 2 | 2024

My introduction to energy healing began with formal training in Reiki Levels 1 & 2 through Firebird Healing Arts Alliance in Portland, Oregon. My Reiki practice is rooted in the Usui Reiki Method, a Japanese healing tradition centered on the cultivation and channeling of universal life-force energy.

This training opened the door to working with subtle energy, deepening my capacity for presence, energetic awareness, and the creation of a calm, grounded space for healing.

A Practice of Ongoing Learning

I see education as an ongoing part of this work. I continue to learn through formal training, personal practice, time in nature, and the experiences of those I have the privilege of supporting.

My intention is not to have all the answers, but to remain curious, present, and willing to listen to the body, to intuition, to spirit, and to the wisdom of our essential nature.
