My path to yoga and the healing arts has been a process of remembering; a coming home to deep truth and wisdom. I’ve always been aware of uplifting energy moving both around and through me. As a young child I felt this as excitement. I would often squeeze my hands because they held so much energy. As I grew older, I directed this energy into dance, athletics and academics. I studied law, became a real estate attorney and later worked in politics as a writer. Neither of those pursuits felt like the real me.

 

It wasn’t until I started practicing yoga – the physical postures, meditation and breathwork – that I rediscovered the enthusiasm and joyful expression of my inner-being. The sense of magic, wholeness and peace I found through yoga inspired me to dive into the practice and ultimately to teach. Yoga also opened my awareness of the subtle energy body and how it affects our health. After years of exploring energy healing on my own, I studied more formally in a certificate program in energy medicine.

​

More recently, I completed a certificate program in Transformational Coaching and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP).  With yoga as my foundation, my coaching work is a syntheses of NLP, intuitive energy healing and guided meditation. I am thrilled to offer these practices to help clients find a deeper connection to their body, mind and soul and a greater sense of strength, vitality and well-being.

 

I am certified as an NLP practitioner by ChangesHappen and a graduate of UpLevel Academy Practitioner Training. I am a certified energy healer and a graduate of Healing in America, School of Holistic Energy Healing.  I am also a certified SmartFLOW yoga instructor and am registered with Yoga Alliance at the E-RYT500 Level.  I am a graduate of the University of Michigan and Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law. 

 

I see clients in-person and remotely.  My office is located at Lotus Integrative Medicine in Santa Monica, California.
