I have spent many years studying how energy works, talking to spirits and plants, learning to trust my intuition, integrating my trauma, spending time with the sick and dying, and traveling through various realms. All of these explorations unfold into this work, and what I have to offer. I feel deeply like a soul on an incredible, holy journey, and a human, trying to make my way through the messiness of life on earth. My handle is Walking Between Worlds because that’s exactly what I do – whether across the gender binary, the world of the living and dead, or between allopathic and holistic healing practices.
The whole ‘love and light,’ ‘good vibes only’ spirituality doesn’t work for me. I feel that our shadows are sacred and meant to be welcomed and integrated into the whole, rather than ignored. In our sessions, we’ll touch on heavy things, but hold them softly, with lots of lightness.
I don’t want to be a healing practitioner that you depend on to feel connected to spirit. I believe that our connection to our innate spiritual practices, gifts, and connection with the earth is in deep need of repair. I hope to show people how to reclaim their innate healing abilities and repair our connection to the earth so that as a collective we can get well and get free. I also want to help you know and honor more of yourself, find more nourishment, and more fully open to what’s happening in your life.
When I’m not doing spiritual work, I’m working as a nurse practitioner. My specialty background is geriatrics. I am passionate about promoting autonomy as people age and talking to people about death before it knocks on their door so that death may be approached as an old friend rather than something to avoid or be afraid of.
I also enjoy spending time with loved ones and my cats, writing, cooking, reading, listening to music, making all kinds of things with my hands, creating art, gardening, guiding and practicing yoga, and spending time in the woods. I am based out of unceded Lumbee, Cheraw, Catawba, Occaneechi, and Shakori land, also known as Durham, NC.
I hope you feel inspired to take what works for you here and to leave the rest. May we feel less alone, more connected, and more rooted as we do this deep and meaningful work together.
