About Me:

My healing path has had many stages. My first awakening was in my teens when it became apparent to me that various personal issues had roots in my childhood and I had things I needed to process and heal from. I became a vegetarian for several years, I began exploring my spirituality, and I began to teach flying trapeze to the general public besides the Hudson River in NYC. Trapeze gave me confidence, a new sense of inner freedom, and fundamentally changed my life. I was afraid of heights so the first time was absolutely terrifying, but I was amazed at how fast I not only adjusted, but truly came to love it. Through teaching, I found tremendous value in observing similar changes in many of my students. Watching people grow, progressing through the tricks, and eventually training fellow instructors was tremendously rewarding. It taught me how much our environment affects us, and how — with the proper support at the right time — things that sound impossible become just another part of the journey.

Eventually, I felt like I had hit a wall, so I decided to go to school for scientific glassblowing (basically how to make chemistry equipment). I worked in the industry briefly, but I have mostly used my skills to work with artists to fabricate sculptures that have been displayed around the world as well as make my own work.

Then along came COVID. I was left without a studio and forced to do some introspection. I still had a lot of issues I had been pushing away by focusing my energy on other people, and numbing myself with too much cannabis. Over the course of several years I realized I needed to reimagine my relationships (with my family, friends, romantic partners, and myself). The final push was the sudden passing of my beloved cat. It felt like the floor had dropped out of my life, and the depression that I had been barely holding at bay was overwhelming. I had used EFT occasionally for years, but this time I began tapping and I didn’t stop. After a few months and feeling the results, I realized I missed doing something that felt like it was directly making the world a better place, one person at a time. I missed encouraging and enabling people’s growth, and connecting them with inner resources they didn’t even know they had. So I signed up for the EFT Universe certification program, and embarked on a new chapter.

A few months later, I took my first trip out of the country in 6 years to go to Thailand to take classes from Grandmaster Chia at the Universal Healing Tao school in Chiang Mai. I had come across his work in high school, but it was a totally different experience learning in person. These practices have changed my life, and I find they are supercharged when combined with EFT. What I teach are the fundamentals of how to relax your nervous system and bring in what the taoist’s consider to be positive energy, how to connect with the 5 major organs in Traditional Chinese Medicine, how to clear out negative emotions that accumulate at the end of a long day. I have found these techniques to be invaluable in building a daily meditation habit, deepening my connection to my body and emotions, creating a deeper and lasting feeling of wellbeing, and a support system when things get hard.

Now I have: a healthier relationship with my family while still being able to have my own identity, feel more agency and control over my life than I have ever had before, and hope for the future despite all the darkness that is coming to light.
