I believe connection - with self and others - is the key to a live well-lived.

​​

My career began in the yoga and mindfulness world. Having grown up as a competitive athlete and professional modern dancer, I've always felt most alive in movement and breath.

​

I came to therapy later in life. For a long time I thought I was too strong to need help.

 

Once I found my right fit somatic therapist, I was amazed to feel how therapy complemented my other self-care practices and offered something I just couldn't get from yoga, mindfulness, or exercise.

 

I realized therapy is not about fixing anything because we are not broken. We're imperfectly human, as we should be.

 

Therapy offers a beautiful practice of discovery and growth that allows access to creativity, spaciousness, and authenticity in my relationship with self and others.

​

​As a somatic therapist, yoga + mindfulness teacher, and sound bath practitioner I support my clients in reconnecting on a body, mind, and emotional level. Drawing from years of yoga practice and decades of struggling with past- and future-thinking, I offer a variety of tools to connect in the moment so you can make conscious choices in how you move, breathe, think, and relate to those you care about.

​​​

In my experience, humor and lightness can be profoundly transformative, so we may even have some fun in the process.

 

Whether I'm offering therapy, yoga, mindfulness, or sound baths, I'm all about making these wellness practices more welcoming, accessible, and personalized to your needs in the moment.

Family and community​

My husband and I co-founded Chicago's Bloom Yoga Studio in 2004. I'm endlessly grateful for that beautiful community even as I now continue my involvement primarily from our home in Boulder, CO.

As a mom of three amazing kids ranging from elementary school to college, I'm passionate about supporting parents who are navigating the complexity, joys, and challenges of the emptying nest transition.
