Holistic healing & personal transformation through Breathwork therapy, Reiki energy healing, and soon, Yoga practice.
Together we pause, breathe and live.
Welcome to Confluence Breath and Bodywork, a sanctuary for transformative healing and personal growth through Breathwork therapy, Reiki energy healing, and soon-to-come Yoga practice. Inspired by the merging currents of a river’s confluence, my work integrates past trauma, emotional healing, and spiritual alignment to guide you toward clarity and transformation. Sessions are available in-person, remote Breathwork, or within immersive retreat settings, offering flexibility to meet you wherever you are on your healing journey.
A confluence is where two or more rivers meet, creating a powerful flow. Similarly, life’s challenges and triumphs converge, offering opportunities for growth and healing. Through Breathwork techniques, Reiki healing, and Yoga for stress relief, I help you navigate this dynamic space—releasing emotional blocks, restoring energy balance, and building resilience. Whether healing from trauma, managing PTSD, or seeking mind-body wellness, my offerings support you in finding mindfulness and inner peace.
Currently completing Yoga Teacher Training, I am excited to soon add Yoga for flexibility, strength, and relaxation to my practice, alongside personalized Breathwork and Reiki energy healing sessions. These holistic practices foster connection, mindfulness, and spiritual growth, empowering you to move forward with balance and ease. Step into the flow of healing and growth—book your session today.
I came up with the metaphor of confluence, inspired by countless days on rivers. My work takes place at the river’s confluence: where old streams of wisdom merge with new choices, and personal growth unfolds as a harmonious blend. The accumulated wisdom from past experiences serves as one stream, guiding the journey. New choices, like tributaries, represent opportunities for growth. At this intersection, life can feel turbulent, as we meander, swirl and fall over the rapids.
We need a confluence, where old and new merge seamlessly, and individuals integrate their experiences and choices. Breathwork becomes the catalyst, fostering resilience and self-discovery. This confluence propels individuals towards becoming more fulfilled human beings, hitting the flow that propels us forward smoothly. Breathwork, as a transformative tool, empowers individuals to unlock their potential, creating a harmonious balance between the wisdom of the past and the vitality of the present. In this confluence of personal growth, Breathwork paves the way for a more fulfilling and interconnected existence.
What is
Breathwork & Reiki?
Did you know the average adult takes over 22,000 breaths a day? Most of the time, this vital act happens unconsciously. Breathwork transforms this automatic process into an intentional practice, using focused breathing techniques to enhance your physical health, emotional balance, mental clarity, and spiritual connection.
Reiki, on the other hand, is a gentle yet powerful energy healing practice. It channels universal life force energy to balance the mind, body, and spirit, promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and fostering overall well-being.
Whether you’re looking to release stuck emotions, manage anxiety, or improve your energy flow, Breathwork and Reiki are transformative practices that help you reconnect with yourself on a deeper level.
Experience the profound benefits of these healing modalities through individual sessions, group classes, and retreat settings, offered in Bend, Oregon, and available remotely to fit your lifestyle. Start your journey to holistic well-being today!

About Me
About Me
Raised on a sheep, llama, and vegetable farm in rural Idaho, I grew up surrounded by nature’s rhythms. After nearly a decade in the U.S. Coast Guard, I explored the world—from water skiing in the Arctic to soaking up the sun on California beaches. During my time in service, I discovered the peace of whitewater kayaking, sparking a lifelong love of the water.
In 2001, I made Bend, Oregon my home to raise a family and embrace the incredible outdoor lifestyle. Whether skiing, mountain biking, hiking, camping, or cycling, I fell in love with the community, the natural beauty, and the joy of families living life together.
The challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic inspired a deep personal transformation. I sought renewal and healing, discovering the profound power of Breathwork. This practice allowed me to face painful emotions, find alignment, and embrace healing. Through surrender and self-discovery, I stayed on a positive path to growth.
In 2023, I became a certified Breathwork facilitator under Jon Paul Crimi. By 2024, I had completed Reiki Level 1 and 2 certifications with Lisa Swisher, adding another layer of healing expertise. Currently, I am pursuing my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training, set to integrate this practice into my offerings by 2025.
I’m passionate about sharing these transformative practices with the communities I care deeply about:
Veterans and first responders
Bend residents and parents
Athletes and educators
Whether you’re seeking stress relief, emotional healing, or renewed energy, I’m here to guide you toward a balanced, vibrant life.
