Could Not Be More Pleased
We could not be more pleased with the Baptism Joanne lead for us! We filled out a questionnaire and Joanne used the information to create a personalized ceremony. It was a simple and meaningful process. Our friends and family expressed how impressed they were with the ceremony. They all felt involved in welcoming our baby to the world. I highly recommend Joanne as she is so gifted with words and the ability to create a meaningful event. We will always cherish this ceremony she led for us.

An Inspiration
I had the pleasure of having Joanne support me with planning and hosting a ‘threshold’ ceremony to mark the launch of my work as a certified Forest and Nature Therapy Guide. This was an unusual ceremony in that it was hosted outdoors on an icy cold late fall day. Joanne was incredible in adapting to the circumstances and helping me stay focused on the purpose and spirit of this event. What I loved about working with Joanne was her strong sense of presence, which in turn encouraged others to be present to what was happening. She was a wonderful inspiration for myself and others to sense the ‘sacred’ in this ceremony and allow the forest to celebrate with us as well!
