I grew up on a forty acre ranch in a very small town in northern California. I enjoyed many years playing in rivers, creeks, grape vineyards and barley fields where my love and fascination with nature was tenderly nurtured.
I then attended University of the Pacific on academic and sports scholarships majoring in psychology and human development. My love of all things natural and a strong innate desire to help people heal, lead me to attend Life Chiropractic College West where I received my doctorate degree in 1990.
During my college years, I developed a deep longing and curiosity of understanding God, and the differences in religion and spirit. I went on a quest attending and studying a wide variety of churches and world religions. Later in life, I discovered Native American spirituality and it has formed a base for the many soul encounter facilitations that I have found to help so many. I also became a unity chaplain and enjoy supporting people with nurturing prayer practices. I enjoy seeking and experiencing the similarities in all Faiths, rather than the differences and embrace all sacred ways and paths leading to the heart, soul and bliss of each individual.
Lovingly created and woven throughout the years are my four children and four grandchildren, which are at the heart and soul of my gratitude and provide endless hours of joy and reflection for me.
I have enjoyed thirty years of private practice as a chiropractor and natural health doctor. During this time I have experienced continued growth in many healing modalities. Advanced reiki certificate, cranial sacral therapy certificate, two year vibrational medicine master practitioner certificate, and learning and healing with Pacific Northwest elders since 2001.
I offer and enjoy Eaglehaven Medicine lodge, sacred space I steward in the Pacific Northwest, on the Hood Canal near Olympic National Park. Eaglehaven is a nature sanctuary providing a nurturing healing space for all beings.
