Mindfulness educator and wholistic health coach supporting clients with mindfulness, nervous system regulation, and life transitions.

United States
Message

As an independent contractor, I support regional and international clients through wholistic health coaching, life guidance, and advising. I offer mindfulness techniques and simple strategies for nervous system regulation during life transitions and crises.

At UnconditionalGround, LLC, I counseled clients on relationships, health, and emotional development. I facilitated self-compassion and awareness, and offered integrative body-mind training and mindfulness-based stress reduction practices.

At CalTAC PBIS, I provided trauma-informed communications direction and mindfulness meditation instruction. I collaborated with the Founder and Vice President of Innovation to develop, produce, and present Educator Wellness programs with The Center for Healthy Minds and its companion mobile app.

My training includes trauma-informed care, mindfulness meditation, Nonviolent Communication, and coaching. I design individualized sessions and wellbeing plans, monitor client progress, and adjust guidance to their needs.
