About Me

Although my initial professional training led me into the fast-paced corporate world, my deeper passion has always lived elsewhere—in holistic self-care, alternative healing, and the quiet power of compassionate, intentional touch. Growing up in Bavaria, just south of Munich, I was introduced early on to natural and herbal approaches to healing, which planted a seed that would later shape my life’s work.

After moving to the United States, it didn’t take long to recognize that my true calling wasn’t in tracking the fluctuations of financial markets, but in supporting the well-being of others in a more meaningful, hands-on way. This realization led me to found Treat Health & Wellness, with the intention of making healing touch and integrative, holistic care more accessible.

As a lifelong learner, I have expanded my training to include both Western and Eastern modalities, including Sound Healing, Reiki, Herbalism, and Integrative Holistic Nutrition. These disciplines allow me to create a truly individualized and integrative approach for each client, meeting them exactly where they are.

At the heart of my work is Craniosacral Therapy—a gentle yet profoundly effective modality that continues to inspire and deepen my understanding of the body’s innate ability to heal. Over time, I have come to see it not just as a technique, but as a philosophy of listening, presence, and respect for the body’s wisdom. It’s a cornerstone of my practice—and, quite honestly, something I hold in the highest regard as one of the most powerful healing approaches available.

I’ve had the privilege of studying with respected leaders in the fields of holistic medicine and wellness, and I continue to deepen both my professional and personal practice. My goal is to thoughtfully blend these healing arts to support your journey toward balance, resilience, and full potential.




My Skills

- Licensed Massage Therapist
- Certified Holistic Nutritionist
- Reiki Master (Usui lineage)

…and a few more certifications along the way.

Credentials matter—they reflect dedication, discipline, and a commitment to learning. But they only tell part of the story. They show that someone has studied, practiced, and met certain standards. What they don’t fully capture is how a practitioner shows up, how they listen, or how deeply they care.

But in the end, healing isn’t just about what you’ve learned—
It’s about your frequency, how you show up, how you listen, and how present you are.
