About Me

In 2010 I was a law student. Law school was not the right path for me and I knew this because when I woke up in the morning I dreaded the day ahead. My body broke out constantly in response to the stress. At the end of my first year, I made a difficult choice to leave. I wasn’t sure what else I wanted to do, but something inside of me knew there was a better path for me. 

Since that day, I began working in counseling roles with teens, adolescents, and adults. I fell in love with the practice of yoga as a means to drop into myself. I began meditating. I became involved in activities and communities that  foster self discovery and exploration. 

In my work I support those who have lost their way in clearing the path to a life that feels more in alignment. I support people in feeling at home inside of their bodies. I work with trauma by supporting and building internal and external resources. 

Clients have described me as patient, spacious, and supportive. I'm also often told that I am a grounding presence. I see laughter as a supportive resource for healing. 

In December 2017 I received my masters in Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies. Prior to that, I received my bachelors of arts from UC Santa Barbara.
