You contain within the wisdom that can help you live in integrity with yourself and those around you. I teach tools to access this wisdoms with kindness, awareness, courage, and love so you can build the life that truly matters. My academic journey, culminating in a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and training at cutting-edge institutions like Boston Children's Hospital, McLean Hospital, and Harvard Medical School, equipped me with evidence-based practices to treat severe mental and emotional health challenges with precision, scope, and depth.
My meditative, mystical practice has helped foster an intuitive knowing that transcends reason - a recognition of oneness with all of existence. You do not have to suffer. There are tools and paths available to help you let go of anything that does not serve you well and cultivate whatever it is that you freely choose to live by.
I integrate ancestral practices with scientific processes in a way that fits our modern world. I may be able to support you in making your journey one that is aligned with how you truly want to live this life. Reach out and let's see what unfolds.
