Nancy has helped me flip my perspective. I was feeling an oppressive sadness and weight that was dragging me down and making me feel lost. Now I am back in the flow. I am feeling inspired and valuable. Nancy is just the person I needed to connect with in my journey at this moment. She is awesome during live sessions and gives me many resources to research outside of sessions. She has helped me improve my relationship with my beloved spouse and my extended family. I would recommend Nancy to anyone who is open minded and appreciates an array of paths to healing. I feel she is highly intelligent, creative, loving, fully accepting and uniquely wonderful. She has extensive professional training, experience and expertise but she is also just a loving, kind soul with a passion to live her truth helping others fully enjoy the life experience.
