I’m a Certified Holistic Health Coach and lifelong learner who would be honored to accompany you on your path to healing.
I’ll help you discover the root of your unwanted symptoms and then assist you in making a detailed and accessible plan on how to address the causes of your distress. Taking this step toward better overall health is something that will continue to benefit you for the rest of your life. It's an investment worth making.
I started on this path about 17 years ago when I was having trouble conceiving a child and no one could provide any explanation as to why. This led me down a long winding road of self-discovery and healing and it cracked my mind and heart wide open. Through this new found openness and vulnerability, a whole new world revealed itself to me, one of which I previously had no experience with at all.
That was the world of Eastern Medicine and the many healing modalities that exist but that very few talk about. I tried anything that came into my path! Some of which I loved and were very helpful and others not as much, but I was determined to not miss an opportunity to heal …even if just a little bit.
I am living with my husband and 2 young children, pursuing my passion of helping others achieve their goals and reclaim their personal power. We do not need to solely rely on others for our healing as we all have much of the power within us, but having a partner and a community to help along the way will be a decision you will not regret and will continue to benefit from.
But I also know how overwhelming it can be to make the necessary changes to do so, especially when the choices seem endless. Add to that the incessant and often misleading marketing we are constantly exposed to and it’s a recipe for staying stuck and overwhelmed.
I love working with people and helping them feel seen and heard when that feeling is missing for so many of us. I practiced social work in mental health and substance abuse for 16 years and loved the connection and being able to empower those on the fringes. I have now adjusted my focus to working with people who want to improve their holistic health through focus, hard work, commitment and a willingness to shift.
to Holistic assessment and wellness coaching
My approach to full body wellness starts with a holistic assessment using many traditional Chinese medicine techniques as well as:
pH testing of the urine and saliva
muscle testing
iridology analysis
This allows me to triangulate results and decipher the messages your body is sending so you can begin to support it in the best way possible.
Once we gather all the findings and have a clear picture of what is going on and where the root of the problem is, I will create a detailed and personalized wellness plan. This will then act as a guide to assist in goal setting in a realistic and accessible way.

Outside of work, I am most at ease and joyful when I am in nature, especially on the water or in the mountains. I love trying new things and taking adventures but am not adventurous with food (especially meat).
Music is my life and I wish so much that I could make it but for now, I will just continue to enjoy it with my whole being! Attending concerts has always been one of my most favorite things to do and so many of my best memories come from these times with my friends and husband. The energy and the joy at most of the shows I attend is palpable and it lights me up.
I spend my free time with my friends, my husband of 19 years and my 2 young daughters- the absolute loves of my life. I also enjoy honing my manifestation skills on the side. Anything from running into someone I purposely think about, to creating the business of my dreams piece by piece. Its absolute unmistakable magic when you see it come to life. While I love being adventurous and dream of traveling the world, I also really love and need quiet time. It's how I recharge and reconnect with myself and the divine.
My first job out of college was on a social work team of all Deaf/HOH individuals, coworkers and clients alike. I was not at all fluent in sign language at that point but they had interpreters on staff and it was the most incredible way to learn, not only the language ,but the culture as well. Talk about naivety opening up the door to my career! I often wonder if I would be brave enough to do that now. Ahhhh to be young again!
During my many years in the community as a social worker, I probably rescued close to 30 dogs from the street. It seemed for a while that they were actively seeking me out. It became kind of a joke between my husband and I but now I know, they do seem to find the people that they know will help them.
