Introduction

I'm all about finding the magic in everyday moments and celebrating the beauty in ordinary things. Life's an adventure, and I bring a whole lot of enthusiasm to the table. I'm a certified trauma expert with two decades of experience in various trauma-related roles. I've delved deep into somatically-oriented therapies and nerded out on neurophysiology. Why? Because I believe we're not just passengers in our bodies; we ARE our bodies. And guess what? Our bodies hold some incredible stories. My academic journey has been quite the ride too. I hold a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and several Master's degrees: Psychology (for those one-on-one deep dives), Marriage and Family Therapy (for all those juicy relationship dynamics), Intercultural Studies (because culture matters), and Theology (for that transcendent perspective). My superpower is helping folks like you become the absolute best version of themselves. I'm all about abundant freedom, joy, and peace. My approach is a mix of all these perspectives blended together in a holistic way. I see you as a unique individual, and my goal is to help you discover your authentic self and thrive in your relationships. To me, this isn't just a job; it's a calling. It's about finding meaning, purpose, and genuine connection in this wild journey we call life. So, if you're ready to embark on this adventure, I'm here with a big ol' dose of spunk, sturdy compassion and a whole lot of heart to guide you. Let's make your life the masterpiece it deserves to be!
