Hi! I’m Amy, your partner in healing.
Together, we will heal your trauma, nourish your nervous system, and open the door to full embodied presence so that you can live your life fully expressed, offering your unique gifts to the world.
Bridging modern neurobiology, and ancient shamanic healing wisdom, I guide my clients in the process, and practice of self-healing.
I teach my clients to cultivate habitual, spiritual presence, to experience a deeper connection to themselves, their families, their communities & the earth.

I had a very good experience. Amy is a fine teacher, a wonderful soul, and one of the most genuine people I have ever met. I would do another retreat with her in a heartbeat!
The accommodations were comfy, the food tasty, and the local (in the driftless region) rocked

The Sacred Heart of Being Retreat was truly an incredible and transformative experience. Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect going in—I only knew the person organizing it. But from the opening gathering to the final ceremony, each moment unfolded in such a meaningful and powerful way.
What surprised me most was how quickly and deeply our group connected. There was an unexpected and beautiful bond that formed, creating a space filled with peace, love, and genuine presence. I felt a profound connection not only with others, but also with myself—something that felt like a true gift.
I’m committed to continuing the practices I learned during this retreat, and this group will forever hold a special place in my heart. I’m so grateful for this sacred experience.

Probably the most healing experience of my life! From the learnings and rituals to the spa services and food, this was priceless.

Life changing. From Amy and Camille our leaders to John, Priscilla , and the entire Equillibrium staff - this week was amazing. The food, grounds, accommodations, digital "detox" , spa services and more made it so I didn't want to leave. I want to bring my whole family back next time.
