I am a “Holistic Beauty Practitioner.” What does this mean to me?
I combine individualized services, high quality organic skincare products and the sharing of radical self care practices with my clients. This combination allows for energetic restoration that stimulates cellar processes in the skin, resulting in resonant skin health.
There are a variety of skin concerns that can be addressed within a treatment at the clinic with me, including:
- Dry skin that feels dull with dead skin build-up
- Acne; Pre-teen, Teen, Adult, & Back-Acne
- Clogged Pore/black head Removal – for all skin types
- Age Corrective Treatments for Maturing Skin Types – up to 30% Pro Peels for reducing wrinkle depth
- Milia Treatment – Some Milia can be extracted, some are too deep and require a few treatments until they can be extracted
- Lymphatic Movement – I have several techniques to help move stagnant fluid in the upper body; massage, scalp loosening, & Gua Sha enthusiast
- Dermaplaning Hair Removal/Exfoliation – this treatment removes vellus hairs and dead skin on the face, not for coarse hair removal
- Creating and Adjusting an at Home Routine for all Clients
My personal experience helps me to empathize with and understand my clients’ concerns.
I have sensitive/dry skin that can be reactive to external factors. I also have an autoimmune disease and I understand managing flares and skin reactions to medications. I keep in mind that many skin concerns stem from factors beyond your control. That doesn’t mean you are powerless to respond to them!
Like all practitioners at Watershed Wellness, I seek to maintain a trusting and non-judgmental atmosphere in the treatment room.
I have been practicing esthetics full time for over 9 years. In that time, I have seen some skin care companies use marketing to target clients’ insecurities in order to sell more products. Know that we do not support this at WW, and I will never make judgements or your skin or body, but seek only to share relevant information that helps you reach your goals.
I moved to Astoria from Northern California. I have found an abundance of nature spaces, artistic inspiration, and community here on the coast. I hope to spread positivity and beauty while I live and provide treatments in this beautiful place.
