COMPASSION
is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It's a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity.

Mentoring
One-on-one and small group mentoring sessions are perfect for colleagues, students and anyone that wants to learn more about Chinese Medicine, eastern philosophy, holistic healing, or integrative thinking at a whole new level.
Whatever you bring to the table - questions about theory and philosophy, difficult cases, practice management, etc. - these sessions are designed to help reclaim, re-inspire, and find solid ground in the practice.
So pour the tea, and get ready to laugh as we deep dive together. My hands, heart, and brain are here to help.
Qigong Instruction
Qigong is an ancient practice of mindful breath and movement that encourages optimal health through body-mind-spirit alignment.
There are hundreds of ancient and contemporary Qigong forms. In weekly classes, movements are chosen based on student needs; the only requirements are a sense of humor and comfortable clothes!
Private instruction for meditation or to get deeper assistance in unwinding chronic health concerns is always available.
Health & Healing
The techniques of Chinese Medicine are many, but they all focus on whole person healing. Acupuncture, physical touch, herbal medicine, nutritional counseling, Qigong movements, gemstones, essential oils and more create a multi-faceted health and wellness approach. Chinese Medicine is adept at stabilizing and turning around chronic and stubborn ailments, as well early detection and prevention of serious health concerns.
When used in collaboration with allopathic medical care, you can rest assured that you are getting the 'best of both worlds.'
