About Me

I know this work on a deeply embodied level—not just intellectually. My journey into somatics, nervous system regulation, and embodiment began with my own struggles with autoimmune symptoms. When nothing else seemed to help, I turned to understanding my body’s language, and everything shifted.

Since 2017, I’ve been fully devoted to this path—studying, training, and embodying everything I teach. I am not a licensed therapist, and I don’t focus on deep psychological analysis. Instead, I guide you to understand your body’s signals, how your nervous system operates, and how trauma patterns shape your experiences. My work blends science, spirituality, somatics, and sexuality into a holistic approach to well-being.

I specialize in trauma resolution, nervous system healing, and women's intimacy—helping you not just think differently but feel the difference in your body. This isn’t about forcing change; it’s about attuning to yourself in a way that allows for real shifts.

I don’t just study this work—I live it. If you’re ready to explore a new way of connecting to yourself, I’d love to support you.

Rooted in North County, San Diego

I’m deeply rooted in North County San Diego, where I live with my husband, Jesse—we’ve been married since 2009. Together, we’re raising our two boys, Alexander (13) and August (10), who keep life full of adventure, curiosity, and laughter. Our family wouldn’t be complete without our standard poodle, who adds even more joy to our home.

Balancing motherhood, marriage, and my work in somatic healing has given me a deep, lived understanding of the challenges women face in staying connected to themselves while showing up for others. This personal experience informs everything I do—helping women reclaim their own presence, energy, and well-being in the midst of real life.
