About Me

My story…

As far as locations, I was born and raised in Norfolk, Virginia, made a move to Beckley, West Virginia for 12 years, then a move to the Outer Banks of North Carolina where I spent the next 25 years. In 2014 I felt the travel itch and moved to Santa Fe, NM where I now reside. A long career with the federal government, the last of it with U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, ended with my retirement in 2007. I knew I wanted more. After a major life event for me at the end of 1999, I began searching for what my calling was in order to help people improve their lives.

I always knew there would be another career for me that was different than what I had done previously. For many years I had been interested in alternative health care in its many forms and curious about how it could be used as stand alone therapy, or as part of an integrated approach to healing. After much exploration into different healing modalities, I was drawn to hypnotherapy and began taking classes in 2003. I found that this was the one that seemed to “fit” for me.

Thus began my journey into learning and practicing different healing modalities.

~ 2003 – Present – I am required to have continuing education every year to keep my hypnotherapy certification current
