Testimonials
“In the almost twenty years I’ve been lucky to know, train, and mentor Ande, I’ve seen her flourish, grow, and hone her ability to offer a healing presence.
Her approach is gentle, yet profoundly effective.
She understands the fundamental need we all have of feeling seen, known, and valued, a need when unmet, is a wound that most people struggle with. Underneath this wound is the attachment pain of not having been attuned to. Healing this wound with compassionate attunement is one of the many areas in which Ande excels.
This way of being comes naturally to her and has been strengthened over decades of professional development.
I have witnessed Ande explore and integrate a variety of approaches with her extraordinary speciality of wisdom and depth. In the presence of her spacious and deep listening, our protective strategies relax, creating a space of welcome and healing.”

“Ande is a focused and empathetic listener, who has helped me identify paths of possibility that filled my heart with hope and curiosity.
She is a compassionate fellow traveler, who will stay silent and listen deeply, but when she feels she has something to add, it will always be words full of wisdom, hope and light.”

“Ande’s sensitivity, warmth, curiosity and incredible sense of embodiment create a vibrant and warm space to explore the inner world.
I appreciate Ande’s ability to deconstruct complex emotions with the support of visuals and embodied movement to support healing and transformation in the body, mind and heart.”

“Ande goes far beyond any superficial, ‘tick box’ approach with her clients, instead truly feeling into what they have come through and how it is affecting how they are able to show up today.
However, she doesn’t stop there. Letting her deep intuition guide her, Ande nurtures the whole person, discerning how to blend to best effect for each individual client the multiple therapeutic modalities in which she is trained. In doing so, Ande not only sees and holds those bruised and tender parts within each person, but is also able to guide her clients towards breathing new life and courage into the beautiful, wise, authentic core she knows is hidden underneath.
Drawing on a wonderful blend of compassion and gentle challenge, as well as her incredible capacity to connect with both her own inner wisdom and that of others, Ande helps her clients navigate the often winding path towards healing and integration.”

“Ande brings a gentle, sweet, and deep attunement.
She can see/sense the things being said indirectly and give voice to those things directly. This has brought me into a deeper level of my being, bringing healing as well as helping me generate and take my next steps more fully grounded and solid with Ande’s insight. I also find her sense of humor, spirit of exploration and gentle curiosity helpful in providing me a sense of safety and safeness that allows me to open up at a deeper level, and as a result, achieve more ‘break through’ and healing moments.”

“Ande is highly trained in trauma, the nervous system, and neurobiology, but more than that she is a human who understands the complexities of existing and will help you understand and accept the complexities within.
She is a witness, a connector, an intuitive, an artist, and a guide.
She holds so much compassion and honor for each person she works with. She is fully present and continuously attuning to her clients and herself within each session.
When I am in Ande’s presence, I feel like my whole self is being held with love and acceptance. I feel free to show up exactly as I am, however I am, with the intense knowing I will be understood.
I wholeheartedly am thrilled for anyone who gets to have Ande walk with them.”
