I’m a Licensed Massage Therapist and Certified Decongestive Therapist with 20 years of hands-on practice in New Orleans. For 12 of those years, I’ve also worked as a full spectrum doula, walking alongside women through the tender transformations of life. As a mother of three, I know firsthand how much a woman’s body changes across pregnancy, birth, and the years that follow. Two decades of hands-on work have taught me how the body speaks. Now I bring that together with Chinese food therapy and Qigong, so women can learn to care for themselves through every season of life. Here in the journal, I share what my hands and years have taught me, so you can tend your body well through every season.
