About Whitney
Thank you for visiting my website! Please know as you read on that I use the word “woman” in the biological sense, meaning a person who was born with the female reproductive organs. I do not intend for this to be a political statement in any way.
I am first and foremost a teacher and a supporter of women on their journey through life. I believe in empowering wellness through knowledge, loving kindness, and therapeutic touch.
These days, my work-life is a mix of teaching, supporting women as a birth doula, and taking care of all kinds of people through massage therapy. I am a proud instructor for Evidence Based Birth® and for Claire Marie Miller Seminars®. I am also the Continuing Education Instructor at the American Massage and Bodywork Institute.
Whitney was great deep tissue massage therapist. She cared for my wellness and is very deliberate with how she breaks down knots while helping to relieve your pain and in my case, severe migraines. I will definitely be going back to see her. She’s excellent!

Whitney is an excellent masseuse. She worked on several smaller muscles around the neck and shoulders that no other masseuse had worked on; that made a big difference. I appreciate her skill in applying strong pressure when she works on back muscles. She is a great asset…
