I’ve been on a journey of healing myself, and in the process I have found healing in helping others in their healing journeys. I realize we are all in this together. Together we make up a giant mechanism, and we each make up a cog in this mechanism. The better our particular cog functions, the better the whole mechanism functions. Healing ourselves helps heal the rest of us.  There is healing in the touch of another person who has the intent to provide relief, and I have found that power in myself and for myself. I’ve been told I have a confident touch. That is accurate because a part of my intent is the confidence that you can heal; if I can heal, you can heal. I believe in all of our individual paths to better health, and I wish to empower those I help along their paths.  I am a believer in sustainability. I feel to sustain as a human being you have to practice self-care. You have more to give when you make your health and well-being your number one priority. For too long we have been taught that martyrdom is something to strive for - the fact is  that “selflessness” is not sustainable. I truly believe when you care for yourself you have the ability to be a better caregiver.  This innate understanding of healing and self care led me to seek out a certification in therapeutic massage from Ivy Tech Community College. I finished the massage program and graduated from the Bloomington campus in July of 2017. I have been practicing as a Licensed Massage Therapist since September of 2017. I have practiced in the Bloomington area and the Indy area for 7 years.
