I offer professional training material and knowledge that can be uniquely organized for a private workshop or group. I enjoy teaching small groups as well as, educating students & licensed professionals.
Training sessions share research based data and interactive learning designed for a target audience and are typically shorter in time. Workshops center around activities like formulating an aromatherapy product with a particular health or emotional focus.
As an educator, I am committed to providing research based education while promoting the ecological and safe use of essential oils and botanical ingredients.
I have been licensed as a skincare professional since 2017, I am a certified aromatherapist (meaning I have conducted research and completed 265 in person classroom hours of study including chemistry botany anatomy and physiology), I have a masters in counseling and twenty years teaching and facilitating inclusive and active learning environments. I've pursued end of life knowledge through certification in Death Midwifery. In October 2022, I will complete a year long program becoming ordained as an Animist Minister.

Workshop Descriptions
How Plants Heal (Mind, Body & Spirit)
A species inclusive workshop centered on how we form relationships. This workshop can focus on specific plants, like plants that heal the body and evoke supportive emotions, or plants used for spiritual ceremony, such as smoke bundles. Through the practice of making a sacred object or botanical formulations for health, we will learn the importance of knowing a name (Genus and species), where plants grow and what eco systems they are a part of, as well as exploration of endangered species used in common retail products. Considering the healing power of plants, let us get to know more than just what plants can offer us and begin to explore what we might offer them in return.
The Ceremony of Self Care
This is a terrific match for a group ready to learn and practice daily rituals of self care. If you are caring for a case load, patients, clients, a loved one, little one(s), professionally or personally; this workshop can be structured to meet the group need. We will discuss practices and tools for prioritizing our Self, our Body and our Mind. Practices can range from guided meditation, a written word exercise, and creating a self care ritual using essential oils. With humor, information and activities we will practice ways to create space and time to nurture your Self using your senses.
Workshops are priced on the size of group, the topic and cost for materials. Let's discuss your ideas and group needs by scheduling a free consult.
