As a mother of a special needs teen daughter, I understand the demands of motherhood. I am passionate about supporting and empowering my clients with ways to care for themselves to encourage healthy early bonding with your children through touch and connection. With so many years of experience as a massage therapist, I’ve come to realize that I enjoy the challenge of unique situations and using my intuition and clinical experience to problem solve with my clients of all ages and circumstances. I have discovered that taking care of myself is one of the best things I can do as a mom. I believe in getting regular bodywork myself and truly feel this is what has allowed me to have such a long and fulfilling career as a massage therapist. I also believe in the importance of modeling self-care for my daughter because as women we tend to put ourselves last. It lights me up when I can work with mothers and families and visibly see the impact of nurturing touch with them.
