My Story:

I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts and have been practicing in acute, care mental-health for more than 20 years. I  earned my master’s degree at Framingham State College.  I was certified by the Association of Nature of Forest Therapy in 2022 as a Guide, and completed my training in 2023.  I began to explore wellness practices in 2022 during treatment for cancer.  I am an active outdoors enthusiast.  I enjoy hiking, visiting parks, and riding (I am a licensed Riding Instructor in Massachusetts).  As part of my own wellness practices I also became certified to teach Women’s Radiant Lotus Qigong in 2024.   I have been Certified as a Laughter Yoga instructor since 2025.   I am working on Certification through ARCH (Areanas for Change) for Equine Assisted Therapy.
