hi, i’m amanda
part teacher, part healer, part friend
My first “professional” foray into the world of mind, body, and soul work began back in 2014 when I completed 400hrs of yoga teacher training. It was my first baby step into understanding the power of somatic work for healing, and ignited a deep passion in me for teaching and supporting folks in community.
In 2016, I opened up my first Holistic Anxiety Coaching practice, which blended traditional coaching with somatic work, mindset work, and soul work, to help indiviuals heal from anxious patterns. The pathway I created as a Holistic Anxiety Coach ultimately became a published book, Anxiety to Empowerment: Exercises and Meditations to Stop Stressing & Start Engaging.
My “coming out” as an energy healer was a long time coming. Ever since I was a child, I was obsessed with the non-physical: I’d read witchy “herbalism for kids” books, pore over interviews with intuitives on YouTube, and constantly wonder why I could “feel” and sometimes “see” other people’s feelings. As I got older (and during my time as a Holistic Anxiety Coach), I began to refine my interest and skills with energy work, studying different disciplines and teachers. My primary teacher is the ineffable Cyndi Dale, who has authored over 35+ books on energy healing and the chakras (a few of which, I’ve written in as well).
All of this is what informs my current work as an Integrative Healer…or, as I like to think of it, part coach, part energy worker, and, truly…part friend. I take deep, deep joy in supporting my clients as they work through their own limits, offering them the healing they seek, and always cheering them on as they grow.

Start with the body.
Imagine trying to hold an important conversation with someone while standing front row at an overcrowded, noisy heavy metal concert. It’s an exercise in exhausting, ineffective communication, right?
That’s exactly what it’s like to reprogram the mind for healing when the body is still in fight-or-flight: there’s too much noise for much of the inner work to stick! Together, we dial that volume down with research-backed approaches like:
- Brain-heart coherence
- Somatic awareness exercises
- Parasympathetic nervous system support
- Neural repogramming

tune in to & heal your energy
Whether we work together in a single-session call, or you’re diving in to ongoing support with me, you will always receive energy work as a part of our work together.
I consider energy work to be a co-creative process. In a typical healing session, we’ll start with having you share what’s going on in your life. As you share, I’ll connect with your guides, work on your energy, and conduct any healing or communication that’s showing up. Healing sessions may include…
-
Chakra-focused energy work
- Inner child work
- Soul retrieval
- Guided visioning
- Quantum creation work
mindset work
Conscious Coaching
Practical, conscious coaching is the answer to that million-dollar question: “Yeah, but how do I actually embody what I’m working on? How do I actually apply what comes up in our healing sessions? How do I create lasting healing and lasting change?”
Let’s figure out how your brain operates first. What’s your learning style? What has – and hasn’t worked – in the past when you’ve tried to create lasting change? As your conscious coach, I help you to take your emotional healing, personal accountability, and growth to new heights without judgment or pressure.
The specifics of your inner work will always be uniquely yours, but there are systems, structures, and varied levels of support that we’ll adapt to suit your lifestyle.
