About Me
I have been working with clients for over 10 years to help them clear through their limitations and to live their deep heart’s desire. Often we are so busied by our physical and emotional symptoms that we cannot hear our deep heart’s longing or if we do hear it we feel too limited to follow it. I combine Sufi Healing and EFT to help my clients heal physically, emotionally and spiritually so that they are free to become the person their heart has known all along. I am a graduate of the Jaffe Institute of Spiritual & Medical Healing and an EFT Practitioner.
My Story
Honestly, I can say that most of what I have learned over the years has come through my own struggles. I see personal struggle as a gift for all the possibilities it brings. I have become who I am today because of the challenges I have faced and overcome.
I began my interest in healing and personal growth in my early twenties when it became clear to me that I my pattern of gaining weight, losing weight and my obsession with my body was taking over my life. I was stuck in a pattern of overeating and then dieting, feeling shame and fear about it and it was affecting my success in work, romantic relationships and my ability to be happy. I was obsessed with my body and unable to break the cycle.
In 1991, after many years of being depressed and feeling helpless I knew that I couldn’t go on this way any longer. Something inside me stood up and said, “This is not normal behavior! There has to be a way to change this about myself. I will do whatever it takes to change this in my life!” I had never been to any kind of therapy or knew of anyone who had but I knew that there must be some way of overcoming this way of life and I was willing to try anything even if it was “weird” and out of my comfort zone.
For about three years I focused most of my free time on healing myself. I tried anything that I thought could help me or shed some light on my problem and help me to change including: nutrition counseling, psychotherapy, NLP, and many workshops on too many topics to recall. This three year period was a tough one but also a very lucrative one. By 1994 I could say that my obsession with weight and my patterns of overeating and dieting were gone and I was finally able to move forward in my life.
This time was a gift to me in many ways. Not only did I change a life pattern that I thought was impossible to change, I also developed deep compassion for others and their personal struggles. I thought, “If I could struggle so deeply and yet appear “normal” on the outside, what might others be suffering with in silence? And, how could I help them to change as I have changed?”
Also, my time of deep struggle and willingness to try anything opened a whole new world to me. I became fascinated with human potential and began to attend trainings in many of the types of work that worked miracles with my life. I decided that I would be even more fulfilled to be able to help others make changes they once thought impossible. And so that time helped me to uncover a life of meaning and to begin my career in healing and human potential.
Later on my journey I developed an affliction I can best refer to as “allergic to the everything” I was bothered by foods that I ate and things like perfumes, dyes and other chemicals. I felt tired all the time and couldn’t focus. This time in my life led me to learn all I could about herbs, homeopathy, and acupuncture and energetic and spiritual healing.
My experiences and training led me to pick up several useful certifications and tools that I now use with my clients and teach in my workshops. I consider that I am on a journey to reach my ultimate potential and to help others do the same.
For over 15 years I have suffered from being constipated. It is embarrassing to admit but I could only have a small bowel movement once or maybe twice a week. I even tried two different colon cleanses that were intense but there was still no change. Since our phone sessions I can now say that I go everyday! That is a complete miracle. I never would have believed it! Thanks so much. I think I’ll be able to lose weight now.

Thanks for your help with the cat allergy. I can now go into any house that has cats and have no sneezing, no watery eyes. I can even hug people who are cat owners now and not react to the cat hair on their clothes.
