The Space Between Therapy and Transformation
In my early years, I’ve always kept a playful and sincere attitude toward life and relationships. And after spending years navigating high-stress environments and experiencing burnout in both the military and tech corporate sectors, I realized it was time to prioritize my well-being and explore the depths of my own gifts.
Through my own healing journey, I discovered a passion for creating safe, non-judgmental, and transformative spaces where others can explore the inner workings of their minds. I believe that to connect deeply—with ourselves and others—we need safety, structure, and understanding.
I work in the space between therapy and transformation—conscious repatterning for deeply rooted somatic and intimacy issues. Every part of you deserves attention, and your journey and unique constitution shape how you heal.
This realization led me to dive into yoga, authentic relating practices, and the deeper sanctums of the subconscious mind. With a background in movement and sports, I’ve always been drawn to the mind-body connection. For over five years, I’ve studied intimacy and relationships relentlessly, uncovering the nuances of what it means to create and sustain meaningful connection.
Today, I bring this knowledge to my work, honoring that your healing flows from within. Ancient practices, clinical tools, your unique path. Whether you need nervous system regulation, subconscious repatterning, or embodied intimacy work—I help awaken what's already alive in you.
Some people need grounding, others need activation. Some minds respond to imagery, others to felt sense. I work with your natural patterns and constitution, not against them. This isn't about fixing what's broken—it's about clearing the blocks to what wants to flow.
