RN, Certified Healing Touch Practitioner, Certified Massage Practitioner (CA #59480).  I was part of the Scripps Hospital Encinitas Healing Touch Team from  2011 to 2016.  I am currently attending classes at Mira Costa College to extend my skills in complementary therapies.

I make people feel good every day and that feels pretty good. After 20+ years as a massage therapist I feel even more inspired and excited about my career than ever before! My intent is to create space within your body for rest and repair, help you develop mind-body awareness, and remind you that investing in your physical and emotional health pays off. I integrate a bit of everything I’ve learned over the years into each session depending on your needs and treatment goals.

Becoming a Certified Healing Touch Practitioner has greatly changed my perspective on and approach to bodywork and I’m so eager to share this deep relaxation technique. I believe it has such a subtle, yet powerful effect on the mind-body, on its own or when combined with massage therapy.

I am also a National Educator for several product lines, which gives me the opportunity to visit spas throughout the country to teach therapists how to perform specialized body treatments using organic, aroma-therapeutic ingredients. I also borrow quite a few techniques from these treatments, giving you an eclectic blend of cultures and rituals during your session. Check out Beauty Secrets and red flower to learn more!

I am a mobile therapist which means you can enjoy your session in the comfort of your own home.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 plus years of experience.  As a counselor, I believe we cannot separate emotional/mental health from the physical and the spiritual. Consequently, I pursued certification as a Healing Touch Practitioner, completing the certification in September 2015.

I am a retired teacher of 26 years. While owning my own pet sitting business I became a Reiki Master in hopes of using this on animals. Still wanting more I started Healing Touch in 2009 and in March 2017 became a Cetified Healing Touch Practitioner. I love working with people!
