My statement...
I am a Certified Wellness Specialist, Certified Equine Massage Therapist in practice since attaining my first certification 2001. Since then I have acquired more than 900 hours of training in the healing arts, with the focus being the John F. Barnes method of Myofascial Release and studies in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy. In 2008 I was ordained by the Universal Life Church and can officiate marriages.
I was led to founding Wind Rider Therapies through my own healing journey, the Cherokee heritage from my Greatgrandmother Cleo, and through learning a Blackfoot way of spirituality from my many friends in Alberta, Canada and around the United States. My work has been featured in the “Santa Cruz Sentinel.” I speak at community organizations and volunteer equine Myofascial Release services to the rescued equines at Heaven Can Wait Equine Sanctuary for Healing and Learning.
I am also known as Looking Badger, a name gifted to me by an elder from California’s Central Coast.
