Dreamwork That Cultivates Intuition & Inner Guidance

When I started working with my dreams, I found empowerment in the way I lived. I realized more fully my co-creative role in manifesting the life my soul longs for. Dreamwork has made me more authentic, honest, brave, and free. In my work, I nurture the development of intuition. I offer transformative practices to help restore balance to unresolved dreams and bring about deeper healing and even joy. Most importantly, I love to laugh, giggle, and be uplifted by the delightfully colorful and playful language of dreams.

Book

In 2025 I participated in a 6-month book-writing course to begin work on a memoir. I wrote over 50,000 words and have presented an excerpt of my project to a panel of publishers, where I received publisher interest. The book explores how listening to signs, symbols, synchronicities, and dreams helped me work through co-dependency and step into greater wholeness within myself.

My Story

Stars are not separate

they light the way

in the great constellation 

of remembrance

where we all walk 

each other Home

Guiding, Connecting, Shining

Singing our twinkley dust

dancing our fluid lives

in the magnetics 

of Earth and Sun

to the One beyond the Sun

that Great Central Sun

where all Light Lives

and swirls in the souls 

of the Oneness Heartsong
