Welcome!
My name is Teena Dietz and I will be your healing adventure guide as you take this very important step towards healing and living YOUR best life! It is my intention that this will be an “out of the box” healing experience for you! Though this healing journey will not necessarily be without it’s challenges, I can assure you, it will be positive and life changing! YOU will grow from this experience and our time together.
Intentional Serenity was a carefully chosen name when I founded this company in 2003. Intention is defined as taking “deliberate action”, while serenity is “the absence of chaos and anxiety.” My primary goal is to bring you HOPE. This will transpire through an intentionally designed health plan that we will create together. The purpose of this plan is to bring you the joy, peace and serenity that is your birthright. This health plan will incorporate various recommended modalities.
We are not the person other people wish we were. We are who we decide to be! Don’t allow your wounds to transform you into someone you are not. Imagine a new story for your life and start living it.
– `Paulo Coelho`
A little about me…
I have always had a passion for a wide spectrum of healing modalities. I have worked in several roles as a registered nurse since 1992. My nursing career began in oncology/hospice and continued into mental health and addictions. I was always inspired in my pursuit to understand the role of the Mind-Body-Spirit connection in one’s healing process. In time I could see that there were many complementary modalities that had the ability to expedite the healing path for many of my clients. I continue to immerse myself in learning unique healing modalities with the intention of finding solutions for the many I care for who are suffering physically, emotionally and spiritually.
My primary goal is to get to know you and all the ways that you interact with this world. It is my intention that you feel heard, seen and valued. I want to understand your strengths and any challenges you might have. What are your goals for today, tomorrow? What needs to be healed within you? With all this information, together we will create a one of a kind healing plan.
A curated plan will include a thorough initial intake. It may include weekly or bi-monthy follow ups. A health plan may include equine therapy, snowshoeing, kayaking, hiking, discussions about health over tea. On the other hand, perhaps all of our work may be completed exclusively on zoom or by phone.
My passion comes honestly…
I am a healthy person today. I have not always been this way. Like most healers, many of my gifts come from a profound experience of suffering and overcoming.
I have likely always struggled with mild depression since early childhood. What may have been considered low level depression for most of my life came to a full blown major depressive episode shortly after the birth of my second child. When that period of deep suffering began it nearly destroyed me. It was truly as though the light had disappeared from my eyes both physically, spiritually and emotionally. I did literally everything that was available at that time in hope of healing. I will say that surviving a mental illness requires a badass warrior spirit.
After exhausting all western medicine modalities, my circumstances lead down an entirely different path. I remember scouring the internet simply to find stories of hope. Who were people who overcame this level and depth of complete darkness? I would pray daily this very prayer;
“ Lord lead me to the guides, teachers, messengers that can help me to not only heal, but that I might protect my children from these potential challenges down the road of their life”.
I bargained with God daily, promising Him that if He showed me out of the darkness, I would commit my life to being an ambassador of HOPE to whoever needed it. Hope and love are the best medicines for EVERYTHING. God and a very resilient, hopeful, desperate soul eventually found her way out of the darkness, and now I promise to help you too!
