about me

Hi! I’m Helen. I was born and raised in central Ohio, and moved to New York in 2011 to attend college. Over the last decade, I’ve worked in kitchens, coffee shops, academic institutions, non profits, and corporate offices. I’ve lived my entire life with chronic fatigue and pain, IBS, and depression, which eventually led me to alternative healing. The modalities I now work with have helped me greatly in my own healing: psychedelic therapy, sound meditation, Thai bodywork, herbalism, somatic therapy, Ayurveda, and Vipassana meditation. I’ve trained formally in sound facilitation, Thai bodywork and herbal medicine, and somatic therapy. 

When I’m not in the studio or the classroom, I’m usually outside — at the beach, in the park, or on a dance floor.
