Offerings
Teaching & Workshops
I offer online and in-person experiences for individuals, groups, and organizations—all designed to create welcoming spaces for reflection, creativity, healing, and growth.
My offerings draw from reflective writing, nature connection, spiritual practices, poetry, centering exercises, and group sharing circles. Rooted in both teaching and real-life experience, these programs support you through life transitions and the ongoing work of living with greater depth, creativity, and meaning.
Here's a sample:

Officiant
Ceremonies that Honor Life's Sacred Moments
From joyful weddings and intimate elopements to baptisms, baby blessings, and memorial services, I offer ceremonies that reflect the depth of your story and the uniqueness of your journey. As a certified Prepare/Enrich facilitator, I also provide premarital and couples counseling to help engaged and married couples build strong foundations and deepen their relationships.
Whether you're celebrating love, welcoming new life, grieving a loss, or marking a significant life transition, I bring warmth, care, and intention to every ceremony. Together, we'll create something that feels personal, authentic, and sacred.
Over the years, I've had the honor of walking alongside families through multiple threshold moments—officiating weddings, blessing children, supporting loved ones through aging and illness, and eventually leading memorial services for those same cherished individuals. I see this as a true privilege: to companion people through the full cycle of life and hold space for what matters most.
Let's make your milestone moment deeply meaningful.

Life Transitions Guide & Coach
“I want to love a person freely, including all her secrets. I want to love in this person someone she doesn't know. I want to meet her between the words, beneath language." — Hélène Cixous
I walk with you through seasons of change—grief, identity shifts, career crossroads, spiritual awakenings—with deep presence, intuition, and care. I create a safe, supportive space where you can slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with what matters most. I'll help you come home to your truest self after life has rearranged everything.
Drawing from a constellation of philosophies, teachings, and resources, I gently guide you back to your own wisdom—the place within you that knows how to move forward. Together, we'll explore the transitions you're facing and help you cultivate a deeper, more intentional way of being and relating.
Offerings include:
A single 90-minute session for focused clarity and support
The Path of Grace: A 3-month journey through transition and renewal for deeper exploration and sustained support
The Indigo Flow Grief Course: Lifetime access to this self-directed online program
Whether you're navigating loss, change, or simply seeking deeper connection with yourself, you don't have to do it alone. Let's take this step together.
