My education and approach: 

I consider myself an intuitive folk herbalist and knowledgeable bodyworker. I graduated from east west college of the healing arts in March of 2020 with a degree in massage therapy. My 800 credit hour education included extensive training in such areas as anatomy and physiology, kinesiology, medical ethics, postural assessment, Traditional Chinese Medicine theory, and other alternative healing modalities. 

I have studied many different forms and approaches of massage table work, including Swedish, craniosacral, myofascial release, tui na, and acupressure. I completed a yearlong herbal medicine apprenticeship with Atabey Herbal Medicine Program in Portland in 2021, and have studied various forms and modalities of herbalism in community since 2016. Please note that I am not a licensed medical professional! I cannot diagnose, treat, or prescribe medications or herbs.

I'm offering these services as a community care worker who wants to share their experiential wisdom with those who are seeking new resources and pathways of healing and self-discovery. I feel most comfortable working with those who already have some sort of working relationship with a regular doctor, naturopath, or other care provider. That being said, I do also like to provide this work for those who may be in a medical care gap or in-between providers. 

I am open to working with anyone, and I am also not for everyone. I prioritize BIMPOC (Black, Indigenous, Multiracial, and People of Color) and LGBTQIA+ people in all of my work. If there is something I can do to help make my work more accessible to you, please don't hesitate to ask!
