One of my favourite parts of my job is watching clients build new, healthier connections with themselves, others, and the world around them. I am forever honoured to be able to witness this part of my client’s journeys.” “Outside of my life in the field of healing, I love crocheting, taking courses, hiking, reading, and spending time outside with her two rescue dogs, Ukee & Cadence.”
