In the decades I have spent supporting individuals through various healing journeys, in clinical and private settings, I have discovered that the loss of connection with what feeds us on all levels of body/mind/spirit is a major root cause of the dominant pathologies we face.
Most of us are suffering somewhere along the vast spectrum of chronic inflammatory conditions with seemingly few to no solutions. We try multiple diets, supplements, healers and practices to fix what’s broken and find answers for the symptoms that haunt our days. This seeking, as valid as it is, can keep us stuck in a disease loop.
If you are here you are likely hanging by a thread of that seeking rope. Yet, you keep going, because you love your life, you know deep down that the imbalance you feel has more texture than the fear and pain that dominate the space where your deeper wisdom lives.
Healing is always happening as change, life’s desire for equilibrium and evolution are constant.
Re-feeding is a term used in the recovery of eating disorders. I have adopted it here as I believe many of us are seeking to be re-fed in mind/body/soul. We must re-nourish ourselves with that which produces life force. In that process, as the good medicine comes in, there can be an acceleration of symptoms that require support, understanding and mindful practices in order for the cleansing and renewal to take place.
As Your Guide…
We will explore the life story that your body is trying to tell through your symptoms. We will attempt to build a bridge back to trusting your relationship with what feeds you on all levels. Mindfulness, brain retraining and applying the science of neuroplasticity will blend with spiritual direction to repattern old beliefs, limitations and wounds into new life force.
I may or may not recommend dietary protocols. If I do it will be through a lens of inclusion rather than restriction. We will talk about food because how you feed yourself and why is a gateway to tremendous healing in other areas of your life. THIS IS NOT EATING DISORDER RECOVERY. This can address disordered eating, which affects almost everyone, especially women, on the planet.
I may or may not suggest supplements and healing herbs. Once again, I will do this in a way that supports regeneration rather than fighting and fixing and becoming looped into pop culture pill popping.
We will be slow and deeply attuned to what is present to weave a basket of personal healing tools for you to be in better relationship with the health challenges your life has handed you to tend.
I honor your path, your story, your beliefs, your wisdom and PRIVACY above all else. I am here to reflect your innate goodness, not project that I have a magic answer for you. And you are here seeking the wisdom I walk with. Take what serves you. Be discerning. Ask questions. Give feedback. I am human.

PLEASE READ: Food is Love
~Abundance~
It’s like this
there lives a spring for your thirst
where your parched lips around Her waters
turns Her body on to make more honey
and your desolated heart becomes soft ground
Others will catch the scent of satiation in the air
They will come to the mouth of abundance to drink
When your body tightens around old fears
of losing your free flowing treasure
-remember-
your mother’s breast
an unsung maiden well until your cries for Love
set in motion a spiral of miracles turning
the Wheel of Life
upon which the codex of reciprocity is inscribed
And in one line of this ancient scripture
you will find your Name
