Our Philosophy

Our Holistic Skincare Approach - Our philosophy embraces the idea of beauty as a feeling. That feeling you get during and after a treatment inside. That feeling you get when you are in nature - here we actively bring that to your skin and to your senses. Here we recognize the beauty within us and around us without the need to imitate youth. To us, this means an approach to healing that is both internal and external. We weave in multi-sensory experiences to stimulate that senses and induce a calm both internally and within our tranquil space. We recognize that humans are both nature and nurture. The environment accounts for half of what shapes us which is why the sensory experience is very important as it has a profound effect on our internal systems. The skin is so often a canvas of what is going on internally and we really try to tackle this from all angles through the environment, through touch, quality targeted skin treatments, through naturopathic ingredients, through the breath, etc.

We also emphasize the importance of not only a great targeted treatment, but the healing process that comes after. Therefore our treatments are always buffered with the very best healing actives such as copper, chlorophyll, allantoin, arnica, betaglucan, etc. We have found that many skin clinics and med spas lack the emphasis on the vital step that comes after the treatment- the HEALING. When it comes to our body’s largest organ, we believe in sharing an experience that encompasses ALL that calms the mind and heals the skin.

Physically - Our goal is to restore and heal the skin to its optimal health through our unique treatment design. We want to emphasize that we are not trying to reverse aging and we are not about “anti-aging.” Everyone is aging, we embrace it, we respect it, and we believe that it is a privilege. We offer the best possible, research-backed combination of ingredients derived from nature, modalities, and touch therapies tailored to your unique skin to treat, prevent, and heal common conditions of the skin. We recognize the power that certain ingredients have on providing specific remedies to specific conditions. Read about our treatments and key ingredients involved in our explore treatments page.

Mentally - We love the benefits that touch therapy can have on the immune system and the mind. There’s something about the sensory experience of touch, aroma, temperature, sound, and the environment around us that has an immediate and profound affect on calming the mind and reducing stress in the immediate moment. We take a dramatic approach to this as each treatment has sensory experiences woven throughout from start to finish to allow you to feel good in your skin. Our treatments are also offered in a beautiful, welcoming space adorned with plants, candles, tea, and warmth no matter how cold it is outside. All are welcome!

About Us

  • I am a licensed esthetician and artist in Chicago, Illinois. I spent much of my life hiding my skin under a thick veil of makeup– I grew up struggling with my skin and didn’t know how to properly care for it. My experience with my skin is what brings me here today, as I am passionate about helping people feel beautiful and confident in their skin without having to hide. I believe that treating the skin is nuanced and requires a holistic and personal approach, and I hope to provide that for you.

  • At Healer Holistic Skincare, I’ve dedicated my work to nurturing spaces and experiences that make people want to slow down, breathe a little deeper, and feel grounded in their own skin. Our philosophy centers on healing that happens both inside and out, weaving sensory experiences and intention into every moment so that a calm is transmitted into your reality.

    As General Manager, I’m passionate about building strong roots for both our team and our clients, holding kindness at the center of everything we do, creating environments that soothe the nervous system, and designing experiences that feel like an exhale.

    I aim to cultivate healing here not just through treatment but through people, environments, touchpoint, nature, nurture, and presence. My goal here is to create a sanctuary that honors the whole person—so that every visit feels like a moment of peace, restoration, and real connection.

  • With a background in marketing, media, and design, I’m passionate about helping brands tell their stories in a way that truly connects with their audience. At Healer, I hope to bring my expertise to share the beauty of holistic wellness with those seeking a more natural, mindful approach to self-care. Whether through engaging content, strategic branding, or creative storytelling, my goal is to help elevate this space into a sanctuary for those who value balance, healing, and luxury in their skincare journey.
