Energy, Intuition, Connection

I've been doing this work professionally since 2018. It started in my living room with a handful of people and a feeling I couldn't quite explain yet, and it became Creative Spirit, a thriving healing practice and community. In August of 2026, I decided to strip back the work of Creative Spirit to what it’s always been about at it’s core: me and my clients working together to restore vitality, connection, and joy. I’m profoundly proud to keep serving my clients into the future.

Before any of this I spent thirteen years teaching writing and rhetoric at the university level. I was a journalist and a writer (still think of myself as the latter). I was a mom of five navigating the landscape of being a Gen X parent in a world changing at warp speed. And, I was a seeker. A woman trying to reconcile the potential for beauty in every corner of the world with the influx of chaos, violence, disease, and hardship that was presented to me through television, social media, and personal experiences.

I was good at the life I'd built and then the floor dropped out from under me. A disorienting set of experiences made my ability to keep moving impossible. Through loss and fear, I was knocked down in a way that changed everything I thought I knew about who I was and the world I lived in. I was lost and didn’t know if I would ever find my way back.

Like all good stories, it was there, lost and on the verge of hopelessness, that everything changed.

I found that I could do things I hadn't been trained for. I could feel what people were carrying in their bodies, pick up on what was sitting underneath a conversation, receive specific information about someone before I'd even met them. I told my family about my experiences, shared those experiences with friends, looking for a witness to tell me whether I was making it all up. But what I was perceiving from people, what I was connecting with when I leaned in just a little closer…it was consistent, had a real shape, and persisted in ways that made what I was experiencing undeniable.

I had an awakening of sorts. An activation, really. Everything about my skills, my history, my traits and quirks, up until then, had been training. Everything that I experienced was preparation. And when, for some divine reason that I cannot quite fully name yet, it was time for me to do this work, I was fully prepared.

I often say, “its like having an office full the furniture, the books, the computer, the phone, and the family photos.” Even the sign on the door. It was all there. And when I was ready, when I was “activated,” I simply had to open the door and turn on the light switch. Everything was there waiting for me.

In a way, that’s exactly what I did. I opened a door and turned on the lights.

Since 2018, I have been working with clients from all walks of life, with the most diverse life experiences, coming to me with the most varied needs and hopes. I have been witness to the suffering of mothers and fathers who faced the most unimaginable loss and I have cheered on men and women as they embark on the most incredible journeys. I’ve served those who want more, those who want different, and those who can’t articulate what they want at all.

80% of my clients are clients for life. Most I see or speak with at least once a year, many once a season.

Holistic Healing is the work at the center of everything here. Three hours of conversation, intuitive guidance, and energy work. Most people who come to Creative Spirit start there. But this place has grown into something bigger than sessions. There are classes every week, guest practitioners I trust bringing their own work into the room, a community of people who keep coming back.

What I care about most is doing this with integrity. With compassion. With humanity.

People come here during some of the most difficult and vulnerable moments of their lives and I don't take that casually. I also care about building something that lasts, something where healing and creativity and curiosity all live under the same roof, be that a physical one or a digital. One of the best comments I’ve ever heard about what Creative Spirit is was this: “I feel like I’m returning to a home that I didn’t know I was missing. And now that I’m back, everything makes sense again.”

Ultimately, my work is about service to others so that the world can heal.
