Little bit about me

My path didn’t begin with self-knowing.


It began with trying to fix myself.

For years, I lived inside chronic symptoms, autoimmune issues, inflammation, pain. I was searching for answers everywhere. The right treatment. The right diet. The right practitioner. I explored talk therapy, functional medicine, Western medicine… always looking for the thing that would finally change my body.

 

And while support matters, what I didn’t realize then was this:

I didn’t need another strategy.
I needed a relationship with myself.

What was missing wasn’t effort. It was connection.

I now work with women who feel unseen, disconnected, or out of touch with themselves, whether through chronic symptoms, relationships, or something they can’t quite name.

Because that was my experience too.

Everything began to shift when I turned toward my body instead of trying to override it. When I stopped chasing a version of myself that was “better” and started getting honest about what I actually felt, wanted, and needed.

Not what I had been taught.
Not who I thought I should be.
But what was true for me.

That journey changed everything.

Today, I move through life in a very different relationship with my body and myself.

My work isn’t about going back to who I was before. It’s about continuing to unpeel the layers, listening to the body, and choosing a life that feels aligned, alive, and deeply my own.

Because healing, in my experience, isn’t about fixing.
It’s about self-knowing.

It’s about understanding how your nervous system shapes your reality. It’s about recognizing the patterns you’ve been living inside of. And it’s about creating enough safety in your body to choose something different.

This is what guides my work.

I’m not here to fix you.


I’m here to help you come back to yourself.

To feel more.
To know what’s true for you.
To move through the world from that place.

 

My path has taken me through many doorways, sensual movement, nervous system work, women’s work around desire and expression. These aren’t separate pieces. They’re all part of the same return.

A return to your body.
A return to your truth.
A return to you.

Home, Hobbies, and Heart

At home, I share life with my husband, Jesse, and our two sons, 14 and 12, along with Koda, our playful poodle. Family time is a cornerstone for us, we love long bike rides together, weekend adventures, and those little moments that make ordinary days feel special.

Outside of family life, I’m drawn to movement, creativity, and connection. I love dancing, painting, and singing in a choir, and I find joy in gathering with friends for meaningful conversations or spontaneous laughter. Traveling, exploring new places, and the occasional girls’ getaway give me space to refresh and reconnect.

These moments, whether with family, friends, or solo, ground me and bring energy and curiosity to the work I do, reminding me why tending to connection, joy, and presence is so important.

Somatic Experiencing

My training
 

I have completed:

  • Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner (3-year SEP training, internationally recognized)

  • VITA™ Certified (600-hour core + 3 majors: Female Sexuality, Life Transitions, Dating Coach; totaling 1,200 hours)

  • Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) Provider – auditory intervention-based therapy

  • Polyvagal Theory & Trauma-Informed Coaching

  • S Factor™ Sensual Movement Instructor

  • Mama Gena’s School of Womanly Arts

  • Wild Woman’s Way Facilitator

Each of these trainings has deepened my ability to help people reconnect with themselves, regulate their nervous system, and nurture the parts of themselves that have been overlooked or silenced.

This work is less about healing and more about reconnection, to your truth, your essence, your joy, and the parts of you that had to hide. Here, those parts get to be witnessed, supported, and tended to. This is your path, and we honor it.
