Healing is relational. In my view, the deepest level of healing happens when we remember our wholeness and reconnect with ourselves, each other, and the living world.

My mission is to be a steady guide and mirror on your path of transformation by offering on-going personalized care and healing containers intended to foster your unique embodied sense of wholeness, integrity, and confidence to harmoniously move in the world as true yourself.

When we are consistently resourced, growth is inevitable.

In my decade+ of experience working closely with people going through a variety of struggles and big life changes, I’ve discovered when we experience a predictable dose of nurturing relational attunement over time, our bonds within and without strengthen. And despite all the ways the world has marked us with scars, we are still able to connect to our essential vitality.

I’ve come to trust the mystery of right-timing and honoring how we all have our own journeys. Therefore I do not have a one-size-fits-all approach. I prefer to invite a spacious and collaborative process to unfold organically and understand leaps and breakthroughs spontaneously emerge when the conditions are supportive, and as we have more information and gain experiences.

Therefore I encourage you to consider a regular mutually agreed upon commitment to your sessions - whether weekly, biweekly, or monthly - to foster a consistent rhythm to holistically support you as you change and evolve.

I offer both virtual and in-person private sessions from my home studio in South Minneapolis.

I have limited weekday availability durning business hours (CST) and typically meet for 60-75 minutes, with two-hour sessions available upon request. I connect with people both locally and internationally.

We may explore a range of modalities and practices depending on what you want.

Colorful text spelling out 'AGREEMENTS' in a stylized font.

My practice is relational and founded on reciprocity, mutuality and shared respect. This means we recognize and honor each others’ contexts and communicate proactively as we move together through time.

If you want to connect with me, I ask that you commit to the following relational agreements with me.

These agreements are born from a decade+ of practicing navigating many different types of professional relationships - as well as working with my guides, elders, and mentors to foster a strong sense of professional integrity and ability to communicate opening and directly - and to show up willingly in good faith and act with the intention of strengthening connections and honoring the web of our relationships in mutually beneficial ways. 

I am open to these agreements continuing to collaboratively clarify and refine, and I welcome your feedback. 

WE BOTH AGREE TO ~

  • Show up fully to our work together with honesty, integrity, attention, presence, care, creativity, passion, skillfulness, and commitment to the process - and approach our relationship with good faith and respect for your wants, needs, and choices.

  • Tend to the spirit of our relationship through the energetics of devotion to reciprocity, mutuality, and shared respect vs transactional extraction and individual entitlement - and be considerate about the impact that our choices and actions have on each other.

  • Recognize our own beautifully flawed humanness and model compassionate accountability and capacity for repair when we make mistakes, as well as extend this grace to each other by honoring each other’s beautifully flawed humanness, as we practice letting go of cultural perfectionism together.

  • Maintain professional relational boundaries that are collaboratively agreed to and appropriate for the nature of our work and time together - and proactively communicate if our relational boundaries need to adapt and change according to the fluidity of our work together, with the intention of maintaining respect, good faith, and relational safety between us.

I AGREE TO ~

  • Proactively communicate clear and direct expectations as needed, with regards to logistics and relational dynamics relevant to our work together.

  • Honor your confidentiality and HIPAA agreements, and follow your lead with regards to acknowledging our relationship within public spaces and to shared community members.

  • Honor your choices and autonomy to access my services at your own discretion - as well as respect your process of healing, learning, and co-creating without judgment or personal agenda.

  • Work with you on cost by offering flexible sliding scale fees for services so you are able to maintain accessibility over time within shifting contexts and circumstances.

  • Respond to emails, texts, calls in a timely manner (within 72 hours for non-urgent messages, and 24 hours or less for urgent messages), unless otherwise communicated.

  • Work to help you schedule and reschedule appointments as needed.

  • Be open to all feedback about your experience working with me with the intention of continuing to grow and hone my skills to provide quality services.

  • Not end our professional relationship unless you have repeatedly broken these agreements, and we have had a conversation addressing issues, and there still has not been any behavioral changes made on your end.

  • Connect you with other supportive relationships within my circles, share resources and opportunities, and generally engage reciprocally with you in ways that spread the mutual care beyond the standard of labor-for-money transactions.

  • Receive on-going mentorship and elder guidance to support me, keep me accountable in my ethics, and sharpen my skills as a practitioner, including maintain my licensure and pursing continuing education.

YOU AGREE TO

  • Honor and respect me as a dedicated practitioner, parent, and solo-income small business owner who is working hard to balance sustainability with accessibility.

  • Hold your appointment commitments and honor my cancellation policy.

  • Communicate proactively with me if your financial circumstances or time availability changes so that I am able to flex with you to the best of my ability and make adjustments on my end.

  • Refer other folks to me if you are pleased with your experiences, write honest and detailed testimonials if you feel inspired to share, and generally engage reciprocally with me in ways that spread the mutual care beyond the standard of money-for-labor transactions.
