Soft Landing Healing - A Healing Arts Practice

About

I am an energy medicine practitioner and instructor certified in Healing Touch and Integrative Reflexology. I am also a Holistic Nurse - Board Certified with certifications in oncology and hospice and palliative care. I have completed Cranial Sacral 1 and 2 with Upledger; Myofascial Release 1 and 2 and the Unwinding course through John Barnes and am a Mindfulness Meditation Teacher. ​I come to you from both sides of the healing continuum, both personally and professionally. As a caregiver to my late husband, who left this earthly plane in April 2000 from metastatic colon cancer. I made a promise to Shelton and myself that after his passing, I would become an Oncology Nurse and provide the gentle, loving care that we received throughout his illness. That journey brought me to Maryland to work with Military cancer patients and their families, both active duty and retired. My father was a Marine and it brought me so much joy to be able to give back as a civilian in his honor as well as to those who serve and have served our Country to keep us all safe!

The journey also introduced me to my first integrative energy medicine training, Healing Touch. That very first class changed my life in so many positive ways, not only for my self-care, but it had also provided another avenue of caring for my patients, family and friends over the years. It also sparked my interest in obtaining education of other integrative healing modalities. I teach Healing Touch Level 1 classes throughout the year for those who desire an in-depth understanding and practice of healing work using energy-based concepts.

I have a private practice in Sedona AZ and provide integrative sessions for all those who seek support in their own healing of body, mind and spirit via Healing Touch, Integrative Reflexology, Cranial Sacral, Myofascial Release, Vibrational Sound Therapy and Mindfulness Meditation modalities.

One of my greatest joys is to bring light to the world through teaching and assisting others on their healing journey.
