About me.
I believe that every woman deserves to feel seen, supported, and safe in her own body and life. My work is rooted in the understanding that healing isn’t about “fixing” what’s broken — it’s about remembering your wholeness, even when life feels fragmented.
Together, we’ll create space for you to reconnect, feel grounded, and rediscover your inner strength.
OWNER OF ROOTED-WHOLISTICS
Like many of the women I work with, I’ve known what it feels like to be burned out, overwhelmed, and disconnected. My own journey toward wellness taught me that true healing happens when we slow down, listen inward, and create rhythms that nurture rather than deplete.
Along the way, I discovered that the most sustainable changes come from compassion, not criticism, and from being witnessed by a safe, supportive connection. That’s the heart of my work today.
At Rooted-Wholistics, I weave together my background as a Registered Nurse of 20 years, with holistic, trauma-informed care and nature-based wisdom to create spaces where women can reconnect to themselves.

My philosophy.
Healing is not one-size-fits-all. It’s deeply personal, layered, and unique to every individual. My role isn’t to give rigid plans, but to walk beside you with curiosity, care, and compassion.
I believe that the best healing and growth happens in relationship — to oneself and others — and that blending evidence-based knowledge with holistic wisdom is the perfect combination.
Clients often leave feeling grounded, empowered, and equipped with tools they can actually use in daily life.
What it’s like to work with me.
I approach every client with warmth, welcome, and deep listening. I take the time to hear your story, concerns, and goals, and walk alongside you — tending the soil so growth can unfold naturally. These values shape my practice, rooted in integrity, connection, and deep listening.
Whether we are in person or virtually, it will feel like sitting down for a cup of tea with an old friend.
You’ll leave our sessions with:
A sense of being truly seen, supported, and safe
Practical tools and rhythms you can use day-to-day
Renewed clarity, self-trust, and grounded energy

More about me.
Outside of my work, I’m a mom to a young child, and much of my joy comes from simple, grounding moments with my family—whether we’re biking through the woods, spending slow days at the beach, or tending to our garden. I find peace in watching and listening to the birds and bees. I’m always learning and currently diving deep into topics like fasting, mindful movement, hormone health, trauma, and the healing power of nature.

Let’s have tea together.
My clients often describe our time together as grounding, validating, and deeply supportive. I have been told that they feel truly seen and safe, and gain tools they can actually use day-to-day to improve their lives.
