About

I incorporate ecotherapy practices to nurture, advocate for, and empower women to take back control of their health, lives, families, and communities.

Ecotherapy is not therapy or medical advice; ecotherapy is a way of interacting with the entirety of the world we live in.

I prioritize mothers because their individual health and well being is the most important factor in the health and well being of infants, children, families, and communities. We are at our core in support and reverence of life.

Curious about the state of maternal health?
