SUPPORTING TRANSFORMATION
As a counsellor at the confluence of earth-based spiritual lineages and emergent therapeutic modalities, I help clients connect with their inner wisdom, and access the healing powers alive in nature. As a yoga practitioner and teacher, I bring knowledge of and reverance for the body’s innate intelligence, and capacity to metabolize trauma into insight. And as a disciple of the sacred in nature, I ground all I share in my recognition of the interconnection of body, soul, culture, earth and cosmos.
More than therapy, this is a praxis for liberation from limiting beliefs, and awakening to the joy of interbeing in a world radiant with meaning. Benefits include ease in our bodies, peace in our hearts, clarity in our relationships, and resilience in times of turbulence—but the greatest gift of this inner work is the capacity to access the delight and wonder that arises naturally, when we release our stories of shame, separation and inadequacy. Attuning to our souls and the soul of the earth, we drop our burdens and return to intimacy with the mystery of creation—and the beauty of this relationship becomes the guide of our life.
Integral Counseling
This is not therapy. It is an invitation into a sanctuary dedicated to the reclamation of soul. A pathway to inner peace during challenging times. A practice that alchemizes the intense feelings activated when we navigate personal, social and planetary crises. An anchoring into unconditional compassion. A collaborative inquiry into our deepest potential to thrive.
“At some point we have to understand that we do not need to carry a story that is unbearable. We can observe the story, which is mental; feel the story, which is physical; let the story go, which is emotional; then forgive the story, which is spiritual, after which we use the materials of it to build a house of knowledge.”

Rooted in Devotion
Our calling to share initiatory pathways arises from our experience of the power of plants to open hearts and inspire kinship. In a world being unraveled by divisive ideologies, these technologies of consciousness reconnect us with our bodies, communities, ecologies, and ancestries.
Practices that induce the ecstasy of communion are not only the birthright of all people, they are a vital aid to our collective wellbeing. Transporting us beyond individualistic healing goals, the blessings of our alliances with plant teachers ripple into our families, communities and world.
A deep bow to the wisdom of our vegetative elders, and the guidance of the wild ones.
