About Healing Nature Skincare
Our Story
My struggles with acne began when I was just 11 years old and lasted well into my thirties.
Over the years, I have spent countless hours in the offices of doctors and dermatologists and paid large sums of money to practitioners who never even bothered to look at my skin before writing prescriptions for everything from birth control and antibiotics to harsh medications that turned my skin dry, red, and uncomfortable. My experience left me feeling helpless, frustrated, misunderstood, and confused as I continued my search for some new miracle product at a pharmacy, beauty counter, or health food store. My skincare regimen included relentless washing, scrubbing, masks, serums, and more, yet my efforts were unsuccessful in bringing me the clear skin I desperately wanted.
Today I’m not just an Acne Survivor - I’m an Acne Thriver!
My determination to have healthy and clear skin was my inspiration for a career as a licensed esthetician. It wasn’t until I began training under world-renowned acne experts that I finally came to understand the cause of my acne and how to treat it effectively. After healing my skin and regaining my confidence, I was driven to share my story and help others overcome the physical and psychological suffering that acne can cause.
Over the past several years, I have supported many individuals and families to get clear skin with lasting results. I have developed deep expertise in skincare, nutrition, coaching, and methods of identifying the true causes of acne. It is incredibly rewarding to help a client achieve healthy skin for the first time.

How We Started?
My Journey as an Acne Expert
2016
I began to pursue my passion for great skin by studying at the Aveda Institue, with a well-rounded program that includes histology, dermatology, physiology, anatomy, nutrition for skin health and longevity, chemistry (as applied to cosmetics), electricity, and the effects of machines on the skin. The program is designed with a holistic and botanical approach to skincare using Ayurvedic principles and theory. My learning instilled my belief that true beauty comes from within and requires a connection between the skin (body) and mental and emotional health to get sustainable positive results.

I also earned my Acne Specialist Certification with the renowned acne expert Laura Cooksey of Face Reality Skincare.
