Intuitive & Holistic Wellness

I have been a therapist  for over 23  years; working with men and women seeking support for mental health and substance use disorders.  Over the years, I assisted clients in understanding their life struggles and supported them while they moved through alleviating emotional pain, navigating difficult life situations/ relationships and creating new coping strategies to live their best lives.   

The core beliefs and mission statements of most agencies that I worked for over the years was truly inspiring. I provided much needed clinical support to very vulnerable populations. 

I loved my work with my clients.  

However, after many years into my own personal path of discovery, I felt like I was not bringing myself authentically to my work with clients.  There was part of the work missing (holistic care) and a part of me that I could not bring openly to sessions (energy/ intuitive work) while working at a community based programs.  

I left the not-for-profit world.  And I threw away the cookie cutter models of traditional talk therapy. 

In 2013, I  opened River's Journey Counseling.  An open-minded, affirming, safe, healing place for all clients; no matter where they were on their journey to change.  All sexual orientations and gender expressions are welcome in my office. 

Still feeling the nudge for my business to grow and adapt to fully align with my concept of support and growth; my practice evolved to River's Journey Wellness.  Integrating energy work with guidance and support outside of the clinical constraints of Clinician to gently guide as a Life Coach.

I am an empath who loves empowering other empaths.  I am a highly sensitive woman who loves to encourage other highly sensitives to create soothing practices.   I am student of energy work who feels strongly about working with our whole system.   I am a life-long helper who loves supporting other helpers.  I am enjoying my own path of well-being and love to share opportunities for raising awareness for the need of self-love and self-compassion and creating a self-care routine. 

I've lovingly curated Coaching and Reiki services and packages: 

• Melding strategies that support the holistic wellness of the mind, body and spirit.  
• Embracing the intuitive side of care. (Spiritual/Metaphysics)
• Utilizing and teaching Energy work (Reiki, Meditation, Mindfulness, Tapping, etc.).
• Incorporating ancient Earth/Nature practices into my services. (Moon Meditations)
• Teaching and supporting a practice of self-care and  well-being to achieve personal growth,.
• Providing supportive  coaching  strategies to release pain and anchor in change. 

Holistic.  Intuitive.  Support.  

I am so excited the Universe guided our paths to cross.   and I am honored to assist you on your journey to wellness!

Love, light and blessings,

P.S.   I believe in equality.  I believe diversity is what makes life so beautiful and rich.  

All sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions are welcome in my office. 

I believe we are stronger; together.  And you are stronger than you realize. 

You have a place in this world that is uniquely yours and I am so honored you decided to share your path with me.
