Who I Am.
I am an Energy Healer, Animal and Veterinary Chaplain, and Licensed Wildlife Rehabilitator, devoted to honoring the bond between humans and animals.
Through Bridging the Gap, I offer emotional and spiritual support for those navigating loss, transitions, or the challenges of caregiving. I also work alongside veterinary teams, offering gentle tools for grounding, renewal, and reflection.
My continuing studies in Shamanism, Panic Healing, and Animal Communication deepen the energy-based and spiritual tools I bring to my work and reflect my ongoing commitment to continuing education. I am also a Certified Animal Death Doula, Hospice and Palliative Care Advocate, and hold two certifications in Master Herpetology, with a special love for reptiles and amphibians.
As the founder of The Serpent and The Stag, LLC, I also write and create under Echoes of the Bridge- a collection of grief support journals, cards, and books that honor animals and the relationships we form with them.
I live with my soul animals- my cats Berra, Jasper, and Felix; a bearded dragon named Seth; and my snakes Janus, Persephone, Aries, Pan, Atlas, Phanes, Inanna, Horus, Zagreus, and Eros. Each one has their own personality and adds a different layer to our eclectic bunch.
I have lived in Central New York my whole life. in my spare time, I enjoy hiking, spending time with my animals, and unwinding in the Catskills and Hudson Valley region.
I live with my three cats Berra, Jasper, and Felix. I also live with a bearded dragon named Seth, a carpet python named Pan, a ball python named Atlas, and my boa constrictors, Janus, Persi, Horus, Inanna, and Eros.
To honor my deep commitment to the community. I am involved in various nonprofit organizations and personal community projects and events.
“Joy returns in whispers.
Let it find you gently.”
