My own healing and spiritual journey brought me closer to the path of holding healing space for others. I have a doctorate in education (focusing on sexuality, women, and movement art-based somatic practices) and post-doctoral work in Interpersonal Neurobiology and Somatic Healing. I am trained as a Chaplain and combine Contemplative Coaching, Somatic Experiencing®, Spiritual Companionship, and Movement Arts.

I am trained as a yoga practitioner and offer meditation practice in the Portland/Beaverton area of Oregon, U.S.

I  offer classes on Grief and Joy for women in custody. I greatly enjoy community group healing practices and cultural lenses on healing trauma.

I am a Teaching Assistant at all levels. Approved to offer personal sessions at the beginner level.

Areas: sexuality, inner critic, chronic pain, and developmental trauma.
