Trauma gives language to the wisdom our bodies innately hold. In a system driven by fear, that strips us from our inner knowing, I’m here to lead you back to empowerment. The truth is, there’s nothing wrong with us. When we release conditioning, at our core we are radiantly whole and complete exactly as we are.

Education, Speaking, & Consulting
For Holistic Practitioners, Coaches, & Mental Health Professionals
I’m on a mission to identify where holistic practitioners, spiritual leaders, and mental health professionals are holding containers built around models of care that have been founded inside of a white, patriarchal structure; and compassionately challenging these roots. Serving as a guide for the leaders of the new paradigm, I work closely with intuitive professionals to move through the process of dismantling systems of power that unconsciously exist within their own practice or business.
Too often, embodiment practices are handed out as resources for trauma, however these practices lack a deeper knowing of how interlocking systems of oppression play out in individuals lives, resulting in a lack of inclusive, appropriate practices. Additionally, based on the nervous system, these practices are not appropriately advised or delegated, therefore may not only be ineffective, but can result in the nervous system being in a more dysregulated state.
“Intersectionality is a lens through which you can see where power comes and collides, where it interlocks and intersects. It’s not simply—there’s a race problem here, a gender problem there, and a class or LBGTQ problem there. Many times that framework erases what happens to people who are subject to all of these things.”
– Kimberlé Crenshaw, American Civil Rights Advocate
