about me

my story

The deepening of my spiritual journey began when I completely fell apart. I experienced depression and anxiety due to being chronically ill with reactivated Epstein Barr Virus (unaware of my CPTSD, I ignored my crying and sometimes screaming body's pleas to slow down, which led to this reactivation).

My body shut down to wake me up, and I needed to dig deep to get well. I slowly got well by intentionally rebuilding my life around what I was consuming and engaging with - work, diet, media, relationships, and creating boundaries around the roles I decided I would no longer participate in upholding. Through various healing modalities, plant medicine ceremonies, and particularly somatic work, I have accessed my voice and my gifts and desire to guide others to do the same.

In my journey, I had the honor of spending time with the Yawanawá tribe, and something they believe is that we heal in joy and love. As we dive into and sort through our shadows, healing can be challenging, to which the Yawanawá say "segure firme" (translated to hold on tight), but we can still do it from a place of levity. This essence of joy that can hold the light and dark is the medicine I am working to embody.

Embracing my shadows and healing my trauma has allowed me to open up to my clairvoyant, clairaudient and clairsentient gifts. While these gifts appear in my sessions with clients, I work to guide you to get the answers and wisdom that you hold and unlock through somatic inquiry.

my background and training

My coaching approach is from my studies and certification with the Deep Coaching Institute, which focuses on somatic healing, a presence-based focus and Enneagram-informed guidance to instruct effective methods to soften the personality structure and befriend our shadows.

Working with me includes the benefit and application of blending several healing and somatic modalities, if desired. I am certified in breathwork, Reiki I and II, Yoga 200 hours, Rising Star Healings and reading the Akashic Records. I am in the process of obtaining my teaching certification with The Narrative Enneagram to expand my offerings to group formats as I believe we heal in community.

My curiosity continues to feed my growing skill set as I love to explore, learn and deepen my own understanding of myself, the collective and the universe!

I continue to study with energy healers and shamanic allies, learn directly from the plants' and indigenous teachings and wisdom so as to continue to heal myself, become a better ancestor and a better guide to others.
