Hello! I’m Andrea

Why this work is my passion ~

I came into this world with many sensitivities, many questions, and a sense that I hadn’t fully chosen to be here. I longed for a sense of safety and belonging, and for others to allow the part of me that wasn’t so sure where I fit. At 13, seeking answers and connection, I joined a spiritual community. For over 15 years, I devoted myself to a monastic schedule of meditation, ceremony, and service. This anchored me in communal life and allowed me to explore a deeply meaningful path of spiritual connection. Although my own path eventually led away from a monastic approach to spiritual life, I am still guided by a passion for experiences that help us reconnect with our true selves and feel the interconnectedness of all life.

Years later, facing autoimmune disease, multiple chemical sensitivities, and perimenopause, I began once again to look for answers and connection - but this time a deeper connection with myself. My intention was to reconnect with my body and life purpose, and also to find more balance in a world that seemed to be getting increasingly chaotic and unrecognizable. In Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy I found connection to my energetic body and the immense healing/balancing wisdom that is present for each of us. I felt my nervous system learning a new way to be, allowing greater embodiment and fluidity. With Holotropic Breathwork I reexperienced my difficult birth and was able to finally choose to be here. I was able to work with many limiting beliefs, blockages, and begin to see that parts of myself I had considered unacceptable were actually my strengths. Being with plant medicines has also changed the way I embody, while mysteriously guiding me towards growth in ways I was too afraid to touch before. Each modality guided me toward deep healing and inner balance.

I have now spent many years dedicated to learning the modalities that radically shifted my experience in this body and the life I’m living. I continue to add skills, finding new ways to integrate my training, experience, and intuition to gently support each being on their unique path.

I’m deeply grateful to share this work with others and continue learning, growing, and evolving alongside those I support.
