At twelve years old I found mindfulness through an elementary teacher. It changed my life. Fast forward to high-school when I moved to Mexico and lived with a Buddhist family on the Pacific ocean. This is where I really experienced what it was to involve nature into my spiritual practice and health challenges.
I continued to travel for the next 15 years while gaining a degree in Fine Arts, Psychology and Education. For about a decade I worked as a teacher with all the pressure and stress that job entails. It wasn't for me. But I knew there was something that was. Years later when I moved to the Middle East, my work with women and equality encouraged me to direct and produce the Vagina Monologues with a very at need and marginalized female population. To honour my learning and what I knew was missing I enrolled and graduated the Spiritual Psychotherapy program at The Transformational Arts College in Toronto, I completed a Transformational coaching program & wrote and published a book called "My Year off Men." Recently I finished my first year internship in Intuitive Herbalism (plant spirit medicine) and am an advocate for the medical and spiritual use of cannabis and all it entails. I and am very active and interested in pursuing a career in psychedelic psychotherapy to help women, LGBTQIA and BIPOC persons navigate mental health challenges such as PTSD. *Disclaimer: I am here to support you at any time in your psychedelic harm reduction plan and integration needs with psychotherapy. Currently in Canada psychedelics are illegal. I do not promote illegal activities. If you do decide to engage in illegal activities please be careful: get your drugs tested, ask for help or guidance and stay safe. There has been noted physical abuse in psychedelic and even spiritual psychedelic settings. Qualifications & Accociations
