My approach to healing and personal growth is rooted in deep training and lived practice. I’ve been immersed in Ch’an/Zen Buddhism from a young age through my father, and yoga since age 18 thanks to a devoted teacher I met at college. I followed my curiosity and thirst for spiritual understanding through seven years of Ph.D. study at Columbia University’s Religion department (earning an M.A. and M.Phil. degree, conducting research in Taiwan, and teaching many undergrad students).

Although I didn’t complete my dissertation, this phase of my life involved Chinese and Japanese language study, reading of many Eastern spiritual texts, and deep contemplation of how humans throughout time have approached universal questions of life and death and why we are here on this planet. :)

My spiritual awareness and connection to my body and/as earth deepened in 2013 when I began working with the plant medicine ayahuasca. As my voice and womb began to awaken, heal, and reflect my authentic truth, my journey led me to Israel and Hawaii, where I lived for over three years each - listening, learning, and sharing.

Alongside personal experiences in meditation and ceremony, I hold training certifications in Life Coaching (Brooke Castillo), Family Constellations (Svagito Liebermeister), and Reiki (Master Level).

I work with clients in NYC and worldwide virtually as a coach and healing guide, and also served as a phone counselor with the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline from 2024-2026. I recently completed a Master’s degree in mental health counseling and see clients in a separate practice.

My heart and soul is connected with all those devoted to radical love, living with purpose, and taking care of our Earth Mother. It’s my honor to hold a sacred space where you can feel, heal, reconnect with yourself. Feel free to read on, or explore how coaching can support you!
