Certified Colon Hydrotherapist, Licensed Massage Therapist, Herbalist, Somatic Practitioner...
For almost a decade, Samara has been rooted in the practice and study of holistic living. In 2016 she enrolled in the nation’s most esteemed and only accredited herbalism program at Bastyr University. Here she completed her Bachelor’s in Herbal Sciences, which included comprehensive coursework in traditional and modern-day herbology, anatomy, physiology, medical-oriented sciences, nutrition, and disease processes. She has since become certified in colon hydrotherapy, sound healing, permaculture, and has completed over 600 hours of massage therapy training in modalities including Swedish, deep tissue, and Tantric energy work. Samara is also a practicing and certified Sexological Bodyworker and somatic sex educator.
Samara draws upon the many tools in her toolbox when assisting clients during sessions. She incorporates both Eastern and Western medical ideology and recognizes the inseparability of mind, body and spirit in the process of healing and restoring vitality. As a therapist she aims to help her clients feel grounded in their bodies, empowered, educated, and inspired. She holds space mindfully and free from judgment; cultivating a safe haven for the healing and wellness of all.
As an ardent learner she is continually curious about the physical and metaphysical world. She is a naturalist, avid traveler, adventure seeker, and conscientious companion of Mother Earth. She believes that the body has an innate capacity to heal and most often requires kindness, compassion, and self-love to return to a state of harmony.
