Betsy is a 24-year HBB certified healing touch practitioner, a retired high school teacher, spiritual director, author and retreat leader.

I began my Healing Touch journey with a Level 1 class at Red Rocks Community College in Colorado.   At Red Rocks I completed the Holistic Health curriculum which Healing Touch is part of.    I have been a CHTP since 2011, offering Healing Touch to the community through volunteering with LifeSpark Cancer Resources, Healing Warriors Program (I am co-founder of this non-profit), The Peak Center - Foothills Park & Recreation Center, and my private practice.    

My goal is to make people aware of Healing Touch and all of the benefits it can provide.  It has been an amazing and fulfilling journey.

In December 2022, I became a CPD (Certified Professional Doula) working with postpartum families.

I have been a nurse for 30+ years with a wide range of experiences in the hospital setting and in the community.  I began my Healing Touch journey while I was taking care of cancer and Hospice patients in their home.  It was a remarkable experience and I feel that it was a turning point in my nursing career.

I have experienced how energy therapy can be very effective either on its own for stress management and when it complements medical care.  It is non-invasive, gentle and encourages a relaxation response that enhances one's own innate healing process. 

In addition to Healing Touch, I am also a certified yoga and meditation instructor.  I encourage students and clients to take charge of their wellness and vitality through lifestyle: healthy nutrition, mindfulness, meditation, body movement while also maintaining spiritual and emotional health.

I provide Healing Touch to private clients in San Diego, CA.  If you would like to experience Healing Touch or have questions regarding an initial session, please feel free to contact me.  I would love to meet you!
