I have been a student of holistic and natural solutions to health problems as long as I can remember. I have always trusted in our bodies, and their wisdom to heal when given the resources.

In my final year, I learned that I could support and advocate for and with women during pregnancy, birth and the postpartum time as a doula, I knew that was my calling. I have been a birth doula supporting women and families for nine years, and teaching childbirth education for five. I have supported over 300 families as a doula and/or childbirth educator since then and love the work!

Professional History:

After receiving my BS in PE with a Fitness Emphasis & Spanish, I worked as a Director of Corporate Wellness in San Francisco, CA for 4 years. That eventually led me to pursue a MS in Physical Therapy and develop my skills as a Holistic Physical Therapist which I have done for the past 25 years.

Current clients include women with sugar addictions, digestive troubles, under-active thyroid, low immunity, hormone imbalance and PCOS. A common theme is chronic fatigue. I also work with men who are exhausted and or want to lose weight.

My personal and professional experience has taught me that the most profound and sustainable health outcomes occur when you commit to a period of dedicated support (ideally 3-months) that not only aims to alleviate symptoms, but treat the causes of the presenting illnesses and reduce their likelihood of recurring. To thrive, physically, emotionally and mentally.
