When the vision of the Four Winds of Healing and Northern Shire came to me, I wanted to build a place that could support individual, couples and families through the transitions of life.  This is where we usually get stuck… the births, the deaths, the ending of relationships, the stuff that comes up as we step into new relationships, and the movement from phase to phase within relationships.  We have built a society that keeps us so busy that we loose touch with ourselves, and the stillness we all need to process life’s challenges.  Our collective stress and trauma keeps us from reaching out and from reaching within.   As a result we suffer, and in turn our relationships suffer.  We can only connect with others as deeply as we’ve met ourselves.

Northern Shire is a place away from the hustle to connect deeply with the parts of yourself you may have lost touch with or perhaps exiled to the deepest of dungeons.  Four Winds of Healing of the Northern Shire is a place of acceptance, learning and healing. It is a place of safety and refuge, a place to fortify yourself. It is a place to develop and strengthen new skills so you can step back into the world a little more connected, a little more whole, a little more compassionate, a little more grounded and a little more real.  It is a place to play, relax and dream.

Although all are welcome, my passion is for working with individuals and families that are trying to end the patterns of trans-generational trauma, or trying to heal from developmental trauma and attachment issues.  I especially love supporting women through pregnancy.  I believe this is a powerful time to influence change and a vital time to support families. There is no one way to heal, although bodywork can be the grace needed to make an almost impossible task possible and dare I say beautiful.  I don’t pretend to have all the answers.  As Brene Brown would say “I’m in the trenches with you” but through my own journey and education, I like to think I’ve learned a few things about the resiliency of the human spirit.  I trust the healing process and I have faith in you, that you will find your own.
