My approach to healing and personal cultivation is rooted in deep training and lived practice. I’ve been immersed in Ch’an/Zen Buddhism from a young age via my father and Hatha yoga from age 18 via a devoted teacher I met at university. I followed my curiosity and thirst for spiritual illumination through seven years of Ph.D. study via Columbia University’s Religion department (four years of coursework, two years of fieldwork in Taiwan, and several years of writing and teaching).

Although I didn’t complete my doctoral dissertation on Buddhist practitioners living through the turmoil of 1920s and 30s China, my academic phase involved years of Chinese and Japanese language study, close reading of many Eastern spiritual scriptures, and exposure to how humans throughout the ages have approached universal questions of life and death and why we are here on this planet.

My spiritual understanding and connection to my body and/as the earth deepened in 2013 when I began working with ayahuasca. As my voice and womb began to awaken, heal, and communicate truth, my life path took me to Israel and Hawaii, where I lived for over three years each - listening, learning, and sharing.

Alongside my inner experiences in meditation and ceremony, I hold certifications from training in Life Coaching, Family Constellations, and Reiki (Masters level). I currently serve clients in NYC and virtually, and as a phone counselor with the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. I am also completing a Master’s degree in mental health counseling.

My favorite activity is dancing and moving my body to music and with the elements of Nature. My heart and soul is connected with all those devoted to radical love and taking care of our Earth Mother.

It’s my honor to hold a sacred space where you can feel, heal, reconnect with joy, and remember your purpose for living.
