Credentials:
Nationally Certified, Licensed Massage Therapist (NCTMB)
Certified Hypnotherapist (CH); Certified in Clinical Hypnotherapy
Certified HypnoBirthing Childbirth Educator (HBCE)
Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator (LCCE)
Certified Massage Doula
Certified Prenatal Massage Therapist
Certified in Neuromuscular Therapy
In addition to what is listed above, I also have a vast and varied background in movement, bodywork and alternative health; I hold a B.A. in Dance, have studied modalities such as neuromuscular massage therapy, acupuncture/acupressure, Oriental medicine, yoga, tai chi and holistic nutrition. Although I have spent many years working in the massage field, I chose to specialize in pregnancy in 2003. After discovering the joy of working with women during this enlightening time, I then began attending the births of my clients--and soon became certified as a doula and a HypnoBirthing practitioner.
I regularly teach HypnoBirthing, Hypnosis for Weight Management and Hypnosis for Healthy Living classes to the community and I am a skilled instructor for vocational therapeutic massage and I have been a guest trainer for the HypnoBirthing Institute. My passion, though, is in private practice.
I have been a Massage Therapist for 8 years and a Hypnotherapist for over 4 years.
I am currently pursuing graduate studies in Clinical Psychology, and hope to continue to work in private practice well into the future as well as participate more robustly in research related to mental health and women's issues.
