The Story Behind It All...
When I was 13 years old, I went on a school field trip and attended my first yoga class. It was the first time I experienced meditation, and it piqued my curiosity. My older brother Jason was my mentor for meditation, mindfulness, and self-awareness. He would tell me stories, share his insights, and mentor me when I felt anxious, overwhelmed, or stressed.
Through adolescence and into young adulthood, I continued to struggle with anxiety and perfectionism. I would eventually experience a significant loss in my family when my father passed away. Understandably so, my anxiety was at an all-time high. My coping tools included therapy, meditation, yoga, hiking, and leaning on the support of my family and friends.

I felt that something was missing and started to explore if there was such a thing as an "Anxiety Coach," Luckily, there was! I found a somatic therapy coach specializing in anxiety, discovered my inner child, and immediately felt a profound shift. I understood my anxiety in a new way and knew I needed to bring this work to more people. Within six months, I was enrolled in a ten-month coaching certification program for somatic therapy.
Initially, my background was in psychology and social work (MSW), and professionally, I wasn't sure what I would do for the longest time. That's a much longer story, haha. One thing I did know, though, was that I always wanted to help people and make an impact.
Which leads me to today! I LOVE to support my clients on their journeys to self-discovery and transformation. I know that it is so empowering to understand your body and create a deep mind-body connection. Breathwork, somatic therapy and embodiment, and inner child healing have drastically changed my life, and I know they can support you, too! Heal your body, heal your mind.
