Holistic Support for Life’s Most Challenging Transitions

Finding Calm in Chaos: Trauma-Informed Care for Peace and Healing

Registered Massage Therapy

I offer mobile palliative care massage services & foot reflexology, designed to provide relief and comfort. These gentle therapies help reduce pain, stress, anxiety, and depression, resulting in better sleep and a greater sense of well-being. My approach integrates physical care with mindful attention, ensuring that both body and mind are attended to with gentleness and respect. Whether at home, in a care facility, or a hospital setting, I bring compassionate care directly to you.

Somatic Experiencing

Life’s stresses can take a toll on your physical and emotional health. With Somatic Experiencing®, I support you in overcoming these challenges through compassionate conversation and gentle touch that builds resilience in your nervous system. This approach is particularly effective in helping you move through patterns of stress and fostering feelings of calmness and stability. By working together, we can develop strategies to improve your emotional health and resolve trauma.

End-of-Life Doula Services

As an End-of-Life Doula, I provide support that covers the important emotional and practical aspects of the dying process. My services include grief support for individuals and families, assistance for caregivers, and guidance through the fear of death. Together, we can work on mending relationships and planning consciously for a natural end to life, ensuring that you and your loved ones approach this phase with peace and dignity.
