I discovered my passion for the healing arts at a young age, beginning my holistic education right after high school. After graduating from the Milan Institute with 700 hours of training and earning my Reiki Master certification, I completed a two-year Shiatsu apprenticeship under Pamela Henrich. There, I honed my expertise in orthopedic massage, prenatal massage, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release, while interning at a chiropractic office focused on structural integration and sports rehabilitation.

I deepened my skills with a work scholarship at the Esalen Institute, where I began studying yin yoga, Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, and cranial-sacral therapy. My practice then expanded in Kauai, where I established a private practice and pursued additional studies in lymphatic drainage and Mana Lomi massage.

For the past eight years, I’ve been based in the Northern Sierras, working as a therapist at the nationally acclaimed Martis Camp spa and building my private practice. Recently, I completed Level 3 foundational training in Neuro Affective Touch—a psychosomatic, polyvagal-informed therapy integrating bodywork with relational and psychodynamic psychotherapy under Dr. Aline LaPierre.

My holistic approach is informed by years of experience in assessing the connection between physical, emotional, and nutritional health. Witnessing the transformative power of integrating bodywork with nutrition, I graduated with honors from Bauman College as a Nutrition Consultant, a 15-month program rooted in evidence-based nutritional science and biology. Combining nutritional guidance with bodywork, energy work, and psychosomatic therapy allows me to support profound healing and personal growth.

As a practitioner, I strive to offer individualized, compassionate care that empowers clients to achieve their goals. My intuitive and integrative approach blends advanced therapeutic techniques with a deep commitment to integrity, trust, and collaboration.

In my free time, I enjoy snowboarding, trail running, road biking, dancing, and traveling. I’m passionate about exploring new cultures and finding inspiration in the beauty of the natural world.
