HI, I am licensed mental health counselor, certified attachment coach through Thais Gibsons Personal Development School, Yoga Instructor, and Certified in Reiki Healing Arts. Our true nature is wholeness, and I strive to help people reclaim their innate God given right to wholeness through reclaiming parts of themselves they’ve forgotten or discarded as untrue or not enough. On my own personal journey, I’ve seen how my limiting beliefs blocked my life and how my own detachment to my feelings led me to confusion and a loss of identity. I’ve too modeled unhealthy conflict resolution from my parents and unhealthy coping strategies. I come from a family of perfectionists, abusers of substances, and where emotions and needs were never expressed and coped with in an effective or vulnerable way. I’ve seen how two different worlds collided, my mom an immigrant from South Africa and my father a doted on first born from California. And so at a young age I became observant of them and unconsciously modeled them which led me to become a Fearful Avoidant and caused me some painful relationships and breakups. At the age of about 11 I wanted to learn more about human behavior, as well as somatic healing. I came to two crossroads, study Chinese Medicine, or get my Masters in Psychology. And the rest is history. I use somatic processing, Reiki, and Yoga, to help with the body and nervouse system part of healing.
Embodying my emotions, releasing painful emotions, challenging my thoughts, and never giving up on myself has given me the passion to help others on their own unique path. On my free time I spend time with my family and am a busy mom of 2 young kids, play outdoors, paint, and love a good road trip or plane trip that can open my senses and give me the gift of freedom, perspective, and adventure.
