My ability to Create Sanctuary comes from life-long practice.  My insight into understanding and seeing things at a deeper, more intrinsic level, can be a challenge in social settings.  Thus, anxiety has been with me since childhood, and the search for Serenity is an on-going process ... that's getting better all the time......

My greatest friend has been Nature.  My teachers have been those who recognized our part in Nature (Native Americans and eastern philosophers - especially Taoists).  I have been most interested in my connection with Nature - thus leading me on my quest to understand the nature of Intuition and Instinct (which began 25 years ago).

I am first and foremost a Gardener - I always have been. Since youth I have enjoyed learning the 'back to basics' skills of how to 'live off the land'.  Besides Nature and Organic Gardening, my interests and personal studies include: native peoples and ancient cultures (especially the Moundbuilders), Healthy foods (growing, preserving & cooking), massage, yoga, Spirituality and sexuality, music & dance, reincarnation, reflexology, parapsychology, metaphysics, philosophy and religion.  I have not been one who was driven to climb any career or social ladders.  Instead, I have chosen to live a Simple life connected mostly to Nature.

A life of Truth-seeking eventually led me to study psychology and education (philosophy provided minimal financial opportunities).  My formal training resulted in me becoming a psychotherapist and teacher.  Disheartened by the lack of Soul in the counseling business and educational system, I left in the mid 90's. Teaching and counseling would no longer be a source of income - they remained a 'ministry'.
 
My family was involved in real estate, and as a result of my father's death, i fell into a career of artistic rehabbing. (See Ozark retreat for my latest Creation).  My focus then centered on Creating physical Sanctuaries.  I had always been known for the atmospheres that I Created (if you like soothing, calm, serene, natural and peaceful) so,, working with homes & land came natural.

For the past ten years I have spent much of my time living alone in the country.  It is most definitely the Authentic life for me.  My return to the city is a temporary transition.  I feel that people are wanting what I have to offer right now ...... so here I am.  I am currently in Kansas City, but would like to do some traveling.  If you are interested in online or phone services, I will gladly send you a photo if you would like.

In school my emphasis was on the body~mind connection.  In life my emphasis is on the
Soul connection.  I would love to share some of what I have learned to help you lead a
more Soulful life.

peace & love,,,,
