About

Brief Bio

I was born in Connecticut and spent most of my life in Virginia until the end of 2023. I currently live in Maryland with two chihuahuas and a black cat. I’m a licensed therapist in Virginia and Maryland and work telehealth therapy through a small group private practice. I started this business in the summer of 2024 as a way to provide free online trainings and help clients outside of the confines of traditional mental health treatment. When we heal ourselves and each other, we heal the collective consciousness of humanity.

Qualifications

Experience

From a young age, I experienced the world through my emotions and was often made to feel that was wrong. I played with and advocated for disabled classmates, and I remember feeling so proud of myself when I was selected to be a peer assistant at my elementary school’s Special Olympics games. (Thinking back now, I wonder if my selection was a result of undiagnosed ADHD and/or autism.)

I used my imagination as a way to build empathy for others by “making up” stories about the lives of my classmates then I would sometimes discover my “story” was a real experience they had. I could tell what the people around me were feeling and sometimes thinking. I sometimes struggled to discern what I felt from what people around me felt and took on emotional burdens that were not mine to bear.

I was interested in witchcraft and the occult and felt blocked from those pursuits in the early days of the internet. Adults hesitated to share information with me out of concern for how my parents might react. The information I could find seemed unnecessarily complicated and out of reach. Where the hell was a 15 year old in nowhere, Virginia, supposed to get a double-bladed, black-handled, six inch knife? Because those early AOL chat rooms and Wiccan literature were adamant that anything other than that was an offense to the goddess herself and would result in my being immediately cast out from her grace, if not possessed by a demon. Maybe it wasn’t actually that dramatic, but that was my impression at the time.

I started reading tarot (and bought my first deck myself, the horrors!), and it’s still my preferred method for divination and reflection. I did visualizations and meditations with friends, although I was pretty nervous about it at the time. I read Sylvia Browne and watched ghost-hunting and medium shows on TV. I performed small spells and rituals that I thought wouldn’t get me possessed and struggled with feeling shame for doing them as well as for not doing them “correctly.”

I didn’t find a community or a group of like-minded people. My friends ranged the spectrum from worshipping Hecate to Jesus and neither resonated with me, so I felt unable to talk about my beliefs with anyone. Funny enough, I now count Hecate as one of my spirit guides.

I made mistakes. I hurt people that I love with my words and actions. I learned to forgive myself and hope for their forgiveness as well.

I felt gobsmacked when the covid lockdown happened and my life didn’t change much other than shifting to work from home. I realized I had become a literal hermit! So I leaned into the idea. A hermit chooses isolation to study and learn and become more spiritual, so that’s what I did.

Daily walks along the same path around the same time of day so I could start to build a relationship with the natural world I was in. I became more interested in spirituality through nature and manifestation. Social media showed me that other people were rejecting rigid ideas for how to live and research showed me that some of this was legitimate! The trees notice us! Crows can pick out individual human faces! We are made from the same materials as the stars!

I could finally hear the call of the universe and it responded exponentially once I started learning to pay attention.

I started noticing when I could feel what a client was feeling. I sometimes warned them about upcoming problems before they happened. Clients often felt less burdened after visualizations or meditations in sessions. I wanted to know more! I completed a psychic mentorship program and the universe expanded the depth of my understanding and intuition even further. I wanted everyone to feel the peace and wonder I felt! I wanted to help people learn how to do this for themselves without having to spend thousands of dollars. And because I want this for me and for all living things, I know the universe also wants it because the universe is I and I am the universe. The universe is you and you are the universe! We must remember that we are all connected in ways we humans cannot fully understand and maybe aren’t meant to.

I leave room for the possibility that all this is happening on this corporal plane. That I “know” people’s feelings and thoughts only through microexpressions and pattern recognition. That I’m just a good guesser because of my training and experience. Even if that is the case, couldn’t you then learn how to do it too? 

Join me, friend. Let’s find out together.
