Essential Oils
I believe in the power of alternative healing, including conscious language, prayer/meditation, journaling, mindfulness, exercise, excellent food, massage, yoga, and essential oils.
In my practice, I utilize Young Living Essential Oils because I have experienced a profound change in my personal life both physically and emotionally with these precious oils and believe deeply that you can too. If you have another essential oil company that you would prefer to use in therapy, this is fine. Just let me know!
During the therapeutic process, you may be encouraged to utilize any and all of the above mentioned activities to enhance your experience and healing. At no point are you required to purchase or use essential oils in order to be successful in counseling. They are simply one more tool to add to your growing toolbox towards healing.
My biography
As a Colorado native, I enjoy hiking with my dogs, running, and taekwondo. I love using exercise, essential oils, prayer/meditation, and good food to take care of myself. I believe that total wellness is about mind, body, and spiritual connections.
