About Me

how I got to the place I am now

I founded White Silk Wellness in 2016. However, the foundation of my journey started in 2000 when I began working in the fitness industry. While raising my two wonderful children, I learned how important it was to take care of my body, but it was not until 2011 that I began to understand the importance of caring for my inner world as well.

Like most people over a certain ageas well as many younger people!I grew up being told to ignore the health of both my body and my mind. However, our pasts often chase us, and even when we are not actively aware of what is chasing us, our past experiences can still be detrimental to our lives, overall health, and relationships.

Throughout my healing journey, I have both purposefully and accidentally tapped into my own unprocessed memories. Over the years, I have worked with a trauma counsellor to integrate, heal, and repair the damage and the incorrect beliefs my past has left me with. Now, I apply many of the techniques I learned during my own years of therapy with my clients. 

Additionally, I have pursued further education to expand my knowledge of how best to help my clients. In addition to the numerous continuing education workshops I have attended, I have received both a diploma in Transpersonal Counselling from Clearmind International in 2019 as well a Practitioner Level Certificate in Acupressure from Fusion Acupressure in 2020.

Today, I still work as a fitness instructor on BC’s Sunshine Coast. In addition, I practice white tantra massage, counselling, acupressure and personal growth mentorship at my home in Davis Bay.
