Hello, I am Nicky.

Many indigenous cultures introduce themselves not only by sharing their name, but by sharing the names of their parents as well as the names of their maternal and paternal grandparents. When I learned this, it resonated with me. We really are the unfolding of those who have walked before us. For this introduction, I will not name those before me by name, but I want to take a moment to acknowledge and honor all of those that have walked before me, particularly my ancestors and those that brought me into this world. I invite you to take a moment to do the same if you’d like.

As you read through my website, you will see that my belief and passion is in us honoring our present and future generations while also honoring the ways and wisdom of the past that we have become disconnected from. We are living during a unique time, with access to so much wisdom and knowledge to pave the way for our healing, and at the same time this access and technology speeding up our world in such a way that our nervous systems can not keep up. The demands of modern living are fostering persistent states of survival and disconnect on so many levels including from ourselves. Many understand now that this is a detriment to both our physical and emotional well-being. And on an even deeper level than many may realize, we have also forgotten who we are at our core.

During those rare moments when you find yourself in nature with no access to wifi, what do you feel, what do you notice? There may be a slowing down that happens. When immersed in nature and disconnected from technology, we may experience moments of oneness where we feel like an integrated whole. When we are in our bodies and connected to a universal intelligence, a feeling of vitality and connectedness feeds our spirit with no lapse in time. If you find yourself somewhere truly beautiful and awe-inspiring in nature, you may experience an elevation in mood and a more quiet mind. You can begin to access states of connectedness where wisdom or messages for your life are available. A wisdom available beyond words, a feeling, truth, messages about life, about your path, about how life should be and used to be, about the potential we have deemed impossible because we have strayed so far - a life of abundance, higher intelligence, clarity, intuition, interwoven with the divine. When we live more attuned with nature, the cycles of life and community, we understand ourselves in a different manner that is more collective and holistic, heart-centered.

It is my belief that we are here to heal, to heal the karma (challenges) we all come with, to heal the conditioning from generations past that no longer serves us, to find ways to navigate our brain’s survival mechanisms that both keep us alive and also limit possibility and dis-connect us from our true selves and potential as humans.

I am a trained therapist and through my professional trainings and studies in the therapy world, as well as in alternate healing spaces, I see a convergence of therapeutic concepts with alternative and holistic healing concepts. At the core, both paths are about finding ways to feel safe and calm in our bodies, to calm our nervous systems so that we can be more of our true selves and essence, connected to our hearts, our instincts, our intuition and a greater Wisdom. There is a higher intelligence and vibration with all the answers we seek. I am passionate that the more we foster this connection, the greater our vitality and clearer our path becomes. However, it is not always an easy path overcoming conditioning. It can be tough, and at times brutal. I believe our challenge is to find ways to foster connection, internal and external, so that it can become stronger and brighter and harder to lose sight of during difficult times, as it grows stronger. This path is largely about slowing down, immersing with nature and tools for calm and expression so that we can RELEASE and REMEMBER, so that we can FEEL, so that we can LISTEN, so that we can HEAL.

I would love to share with you the tools I have learned and continue to learn along the way.
