Hi, I'm Andrea

Nice to Meet You

Philosophy

All of my work is based on my personal experience that everyone is worthy of love, and that everyone is connected to and an integral part of something greater. Because of this I teach extensively on spirituality and how the body works, how to follow your intuition, and how to take care of yourself and others.


Spiritual Self-Care
In addition to lots of free resources on my website, I made an oracle deck called, “Spiritual Self-Care for the Chronically Overwhelmed,” because I believe that the little things we do for ourselves are just as, if not more, important than grand gestures of vacations and spa days.


Safety and Emotional Honesty
My favorite thing to do is to help people relax and find their own personal relationship with something greater. I am a singer/songwriter and my music focuses on my experiences as a sensitive person battling perfectionism, self-judgment, and mental health issues.

Topics and Experience

As all of my close friends know, I can talk about almost anything, but these are some of the things I love to talk about the most:

  • self-love & self-care

    WHY SELF-CARE?


    As a practitioner I only get to see people for a very short period of time. But as a person, you spend every day of your life with yourself. This is why I believe self-care is an integral part of the healing process.

  • how the body works

    HOW CAN I LEARN ABOUT THE BODY AND HOW IT WORKS?


    As an acupuncturist, energy healer, and functional medicine fan, I have a unique perspective on the physiological functions of the body and how all the parts fit together. I love to share my insight and experience through the lens of listening- you know your body best and it is speaking to you always. I can help translate.

  • self & communal responsibility

    HOW CAN I TAKE CARE OF MYSELF AND OTHERS WHEN MY LIFE IS SO INTENSE?


    I live a very intense and shocking life in a lot of ways and it makes for a difficult time in managing the little things. I've made it my mission to find ways to create space for self-care in as little as five minutes a day.


    Part of the issue is developing a new understanding of the term "responsibility" and how we are all connected.

  • drug and alcohol recovery

    WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE AN ADDICT OR ALCOHOLIC?


    The disease of alcoholism and addiction actually has very little to do with the drugs and the drinking, and much more to do with our behaviors and the sensations inside our bodies. Substance dependency is a symptom of much deeper, spiritual concerns, and unless these issues are addressed, stopping for any length of time is extremely difficult.
