About Me

With five years as a licensed professional, I pride myself on offering holistic options as an
integral component of any medical treatment or healthy lifestyle. I have spent the majority of my
career as a hospice massage therapist, providing comfort and symptom management to enhance
end-of-life care. I also work part-time in the Life Enrichment department at a local senior living
community. My passion for taking care of people has led me to open Healing with Heart, a
practice I hope to devote to making massage therapy more accessible and available to special
populations -- whether it be the those with chronic pain, the elderly, or anyone living with a
disability or impairment. In addition to skilled-touch therapies, my skill set also includes hot and
cold stone treatments, aromatherapy, prenatal massage, deep tissue rehabilitative strengthening,
Reflexology, and hand/foot scrubs.
When I am not working, I stay active by going for a daily walk and exploring yoga. I can also be
found volunteering for the Iowa Council of the United Blind, reading tearjerker novels, or
attending productions of the Omaha Community Playhouse with my grandmother, a tradition we
have held my many years.
I also have a Golden Retriever seeing-eye dog who will accompany me into your session. Should
you have allergies or other concerns, please reach out prior to your appointment. If you have any
other questions, I am here to help.
Stay well,
