About Rose
I am an artist, astrologer, coach, healer, SoulCollage® Facilitator, mindfulness and shamanic practitioner, mother and grandmother.
My passion for creating and empowering others is a synthesis of my lifelong experiences. My creative journey began at a young age, I delighted in spending time playing in the woods, streams and ocean tidal pools. I experienced firsthand the power of nature and creative expression. Always curious about other worlds, I was drawn to create images of the natural world, expressing and capturing the beauty, using mediums, materials from nature, paint, beads, fibers.
Early in my career, I started by combining creativity and fibers as a custom dressmaker and pattern drafter. Creating designs for individuals through listening to their stories, connecting to each person’s vision and translating them to bring the vision into being.
Raised in a family where volunteering and being of service to others was an integral part of life, I was driven to be of further service to others and interested in many aspects of healing, art, science, human consciousness, spirituality and transformation. I’ve been a licensed psychotherapist* in Maine for over 25 years. I’ve been a student of mindfulness for 30 years.
Over the years of experiencing life and working with people of all ages, I found that healing was more powerful when methods were introduced that were more than just words to incorporate the mind, body and spirit to offer a whole-hearted approach to healing and wellness.
I have now returned to emphasizing my connection to nature, creativity and service in my art and in supporting others on their journey. I enjoy connecting with and supporting people around the world as they grow and evolve. I interact mostly by video providing astrology readings, coaching, teaching and creativity.
In the last ten years, I have had the opportunity to expand my healing skills through both Shamanism and Astrology. Studying with a traditional shaman I was introduced to the path of shamanic healing. Learning to offer teachings and Healing Ceremony for those looking for spiritual growth and well-being. I also began to study Astrology more seriously and has inspired me to further incorporate my knowledge of Earth-based teachings, Jungian and Archetypal symbolism, Mythology and the constellations and planets into my creativity and helping others.
My education is an undergraduate degree in Business Administration majoring in Human Resources and a graduate degree in Clinical Social Work from Boston College.
