About Me

I am an intuitive and practical coach and teacher who is passionate about guiding others on the path of holistic recovery and wellness.

My integrated approach includes coaching, teaching and facilitating a myriad of self healing practices including Mindfulness, Meditation, Somatics, Yoga, Reiki, Kundalini, and Sound Healing.

I also provide recommendations for complimentary healing services such as acupuncture and massage, as well as referrals for acute cases involving addiction and trauma, including inpatient and outpatient treatment and trauma therapies such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and IFS (Internal Family Systems).

I have a background working in the fields of behavioral healthcare and nonprofit social services where I have held many roles, including recovery coaching and peer support, aftercare services, marketing, outreach and business development.

I have been a strong member of a team as well as the leader of a regional team. I am passionate about coaching individuals and groups to success and building strong relationships with individuals and organizations, within the holistic healing and recovery communities, and the community at large.

I am also the founder of Mindful Recovery Pensacola, a mindfulness based recovery group which meets twice a week at Empathic Practice and on Zoom.

My own journey of healing and recovery began in 2010 when I relocated to the Emerald Coast. I am a survivor of complex trauma (CPTSD) and have been recovering from trauma and addiction since 2010. I am devoted to sharing my experiences and knowledge with others so that they may learn to thrive on the path of recovery.

I am incredibly passionate about raising awareness and advocating for more mental health, trauma, and addiction recovery resources. It is my calling to help others to heal, to connect individuals and families with vital resources and to break the stigma around mental health and addiction by speaking up. I also do aligned speaking engagements on these important topics on occasion. Contact me to inquire.
