I struggled through most of my teens and 20's in a state of post-traumatic stress, chronic fatigue, and complex digestive discomfort. As I came into young adulthood, I searched in every direction for relief.

Jenny is a widow, mother of three girls, mental health counselor, trauma-informed coach, yoga teacher, Reiki master, and author.

In college, I studied psychology, women's health, massage therapy, counseling, and community health. I discovered health psychology, Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, and acupuncture.

I continued to learn and eventually became a master’s level mental health counselor, massage therapist, aromatherapist, and yoga teacher. I immersed myself in holistic lifestyle and supported others on their path to healing.

In my early 30s, I found a loving partner, and we started a family together. We had three amazing daughters who lit up our world with magic and more love than we both could have ever imagined.

Then, one day, our family life devastatingly fell apart.

My husband died tragically and without warning from a deep, dark depression. In a heartbeat, the life we were living was turned upside down and inside out.

The sadness and fear, layered with gut-wrenching physical pain, was like nothing I had ever experienced. Not only was I living in my own suffering, I was also holding my children's grief. At the time, it seemed impossible to find a way out of the darkness.
