ABOUT
ME

I have spent 35 years exploring the mind body connection and metaphysics and 23 years as a licensed counseling professional.

My early interest in personal growth, spirituality and philosophy lead me to explore Kinesiology, Native American wisdom traditions, and different forms of energy work for 10 years.  In my late 20's I decided I wanted to formally study Psychology and got a Bachelors Degree in Psychology from the University of Oregon.  I continued my education at the University of Vermont, receiving a Masters Degree in Counselling and going into School Counselling in Eugene Oregon for five years in a public school.

In 2007 I moved to Australia and set up a private practice counselling and coaching adults and children for three years.  In 2010 I returned to working in schools, this time in the international school system.  Over the next years I lived and worked with my daughter in Venezuela and Singapore where I added additional therapeutic certifications.  My European experience includes two years counseling in Switzerland and now four years in the Netherlands.  Currently, I have been designing in person and online Transformational Travel experiences including activations and grid work.

​

My nonjudgemental and caring approach to people makes me a comfortable safe person to talk to.  During coaching or counseling sessions, I provide experiential skill building experiences to achieve an embodied joy filled life.  In energetic clearing sessions I help people release deep patterns and unconscious blocks with vibrational tools. Communication strategies, mindfulness, strengths practices, new habit formation, and challenging embedded life patterns are part of both processes.  Getting to know yourself better and have a safe place to be authentic, grow, and be seen is transformational.

"Working with Valerie enabled me to move past a major emotional block from a past trauma. In our sessions I received a high level of acceptance, compassion and understanding.  This combined with her skill, experience and intuitive wisdom gave me such a strong sense of safety that I felt empowered and able to step back and view my painful experience with strength and trust in myself.
I wish words could express it all.
Suffice it to say that it was a transformative experience with a major impact on my emotional wellbeing. I am full of gratitude to her for her companionship on my journey."
