About Me

I'm the owner of Back 2 Basics Body & Mind in Plainfield, Indiana, a licensed massage therapist, and BodyMind Method™ coach.

For more than 25 years, I've had the privilege of helping people feel better in their bodies. And if there's one thing I've learned along the way, it's that no two people are alike, and neither are their needs.

My approach has evolved quite a bit over the years. What began as a career in massage therapy has grown into something much more comprehensive, combining customized therapeutic bodywork with body-based coaching and a whole-person perspective.

I love working with driven, heart-centered people who spend so much of their time taking care of everything and everyone else that their own well-being often takes a back seat.

Whether you're struggling with persistent pain, limited mobility, chronic stress, or simply feeling stretched too thin, my goal is to meet you where you are and help you move toward where you'd like to be.

I'm not a big believer in one-size-fits-all solutions. I believe in asking good questions, listening, getting curious, and working together to find what best supports you.

Because feeling better shouldn't mean constantly pushing harder. Sometimes it's about slowing down, making a few meaningful changes, and learning to work with your body instead of against it.

When I'm not working with clients, you'll often find me enjoying life at home in my log cabin, tending to my gardens (I love digging in the dirt!), or getting in a good workout.

I also love curling up on the couch with a good movie (and probably reciting half the lines!), spending quality time with friends and family, and savoring a good cup of coffee.

I've come to appreciate the simple things in life, and perhaps that's part of why the name Back 2 Basics feels so fitting.

Life can get complicated enough. Sometimes getting back to basics is exactly what we need.
