“Diane struck a chord on emotional, physical and spiritual levels that do not compare to other providers. Easy to trust, she offers amazing healing and intuitive guidance.”
How I Came to This Work
I didn't set out to become a healer. I graduated from college with a degree in marketing communications, working 10 years in corporate and non-profit jobs. Like many others who are called to working as healing professionals, I found this work because I needed it first.
Some people’s journeys begin with a sudden crisis for healing and spiritual awakening to open. Mine has been a slow unfolding over more than half of my lifetime.
My work has emerged from almost three decades of deep personal work, obtaining certifications in multiple healing modalities, working with mentors and instructors, meditation, spiritual experiences & activations, and facilitating and teaching hundreds of sessions and classes.
What I've learned is that healing and transformation doesn't happen when someone tries to "fix" you. It happens when you're ready to take responsibility for your own becoming—and when you have the right support to do it.
As a healing facilitator, I assit in and hold space for clearing stuck energy, regulating nervous systems, re-framing out-dated beliefs, grounding and connecting with life-force (spiritual) energy, helping with mind-body-spirit integration, balancing chakras, clearing generational patterns and traumas, letting go of the past, inner child healing, awakening intuitive and spiritual gifts, opening to creativity, empowering personal growth, and activating and embodying your soul’s sacred expression for healing and expansion.
My Approach
When I'm holding space for healing & transformation, facilitating and guiding you to unite with your body’s innate wisdom, and channeling energetic frequencies, I'm completely present and in flow—connecting to your energy and facilitating YOUR power for healing.
I integrate multiple modalities—the through-line is always the same: we work with what's present in your body and energy field, not what's stuck in your story.
Together we create the conditions for your system's wisdom to emerge and guide you back to your own innate capacity to heal. That flow, that connection—that's where the magic happens.

In addition to my work, I find joy in nature, practicing meditation and yoga, paddleboarding, hiking, spending time with loved ones, cooking and enjoying plant-based foods, traveling the world, listening to music and dancing, and working in my native plant garden.
I believe deeply in the integration of healing and awakening to the truth of who we are —that the work we do in session must extend into how we show up in the world.
Transformation isn't just about feeling better in the moment; it's about living towards your greatest potential every day.
This is how we change the world, by doing our own healing work.
“My session with Diane was transformative! It was a relief to feel my mental body “let go”. The session reminded me to connect to my own energy again and lead from my physical body, rather than always from my thoughts. Even weeks later, I am still feeling the shift! ”
