Hart to Heart Coaching
About Me:
I have been committed to bringing healing to individuals and the community
through my wholehearted presence and vulnerability for over 35 years.
​
When I experienced IFS (Internal Family Systems) I found the healing I'd been
unable to achieve with other spiritual traditions and healing modalities. This
inspired me to pursue professional education in IFS and I am a certified Level 3
Practitioner through The IFS Institute. I've completed 400+ hours of
personal IFS sessions plus supervision and other trainings. In 2024 I also
got certified as a Trauma Recovery Practitioner.
​
I am also a grief retreat facilitator and mentor to aspiring Grief Tenders. I have led and experienced the healing balm of community grief tending rituals for many years.
​
​As a lifelong learner, I've sought and studied with many great teachers and I've been inspired by the work of Richard Schwartz, Sobonfu Some, Stephen Levine, Jon Kabbat Zin, Francis Weller, Betty Martin and many others.
