What Are Your Wellness Interests?
Petra believes self-care is not a luxury, but a sacred and essential practice. As a Self-Care Wellness Curator, she listens deeply and tailors each experience to meet you exactly where you are. With intention, intuition, and over three decades of expertise, she crafts sessions that support healing, clarity, relaxation, and long-term well-being.
Petra’s work is rooted in the art of personalized care. She curates integrative wellness experiences that address the body, mind, and energy system aligning therapeutic technique with each client’s individual goals. Her approach blends evidence-informed practice with holistic wisdom to create sustainable pathways to wellness. Each experience is designed with care and intention, supporting your wellness goals through skillful touch, integrative therapies, and a calming, restorative environment.
Petra lives in Vermont with her husband and is the proud mother of two adult children. Deeply connected to the rhythms of the New England seasons, she finds joy in gardening, hiking, swimming, kayaking, and skiing embracing nature as an essential part of her own wellness practice.
Raised on Cape Cod, Petra grew up with a love of horseback riding and long days by the ocean experiences that shaped her appreciation for balance, beauty, and the restorative power of nature.
She is a graduate of Barnstable High School and earned her Bachelor of Arts in Communications from Emerson College in Boston.
Following graduation, Petra spent ten years working professionally as an actress in both Boston and New York City. Her background in the performing arts cultivated her strong presence, intuitive listening skills, and deep understanding of human expression qualities that now enrich her therapeutic work. She later found great joy directing children’s theater while her children were in elementary and middle school, blending creativity, mentorship, and community engagement.
Today, Petra brings that same artistry, attentiveness, and authenticity to her work as a Self-Care Wellness Curator, thoughtfully designing personalized wellness experiences that support each client’s individual journey.
