Ally has been a psychotherapist for over 16 years and has been working in the body-mind healing field for 20 years. She has lived, traveled or worked in over 60 countries and is bilingual in Spanish (+beginner French/Italian). She has hiked 4 Himalayan peaks, birthed two beautiful kids, and is a practicing reiki and plant medicine healer. She is an experienced guide and leader on both inner + outer voyages, and aims to create safe spaces to gather and amplify the voices of women and girls worldwide.
She has worked in the corporate world, prisons, hospitals, schools, youth programs, fashion magazines, the military and spiritual community settings, but her favorite venue is on nature paths alongside clients, friends and family. Ally's life philosophy is rooted in healing. As women unfold, we are uncovering ancient wisdoms that reaches back in time, in our own lineage, on the planet, and in the universe.
We each need different things, and come from a multiplicity of faiths, cultures, and experiences, and ALL have a voice in her own story, and in the collective story.

I had an A-ha! moment, or revelation, while living in Bali, a beautiful and magical island, abundant with fertility, kind hearts and wise lessons in the form of nature.
In Bali there are amazing trees called jepun, or frangipani.
Perfectly gorgeous flowers of the jepun fall from the trees.
The Balinese do not pick them off the trees typically, but pick them up from the ground to use in offerings or chanang.
