Description
For 15 years I worked with people's physical pain as a massage therapist and acupuncturist. I got to see firsthand how physical pain manifests as emotional, mental, and spiritual pain. I think this experience gives me the intuition and understanding needed to help a person find the unique source of their struggles as well as support them in discovering a way to manage and overcome those struggles.
