How I Got Here

First came life school. Then...

After working several years in the medical field, I felt a profound inner calling to shift my focus toward what I believe is paramount to health and wellness. This calling led me on a personal journey to embrace a more holistic approach to care—one that recognizes the importance of addressing the whole person in an integrated way. My goal was to foster lasting results rather than offer temporary solutions, and with sincerity and a strong desire for change, I began weaving this "whole-person" philosophy into my own daily life.

My academic career began as a nursing student; however, a growing passion for mental processes led me to change direction. After earning my first undergraduate degree from Palm Beach State, I transferred to Rowan University, where I completed a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology. I am now pursuing a Master of Science degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Capella University, and will consider licensure (LMFT) upon graduation.

In addition to my formal academic training, I am honored to be part of the 2025–2026 Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies and Research cohort at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS). Upon certification along with legalization, I hope to offer interested clients psychospiritual guidance and opportunities for deeper healing within a safe, supportive, and heart-centered space. I also bring a background in metaphysical studies, holding both a Bachelor’s degree and ordination through the University of Sedona/I.M.M.

These diverse educational paths have profoundly shaped my work, enriching both my therapeutic approach and my understanding of human connection and well-being. 

I embrace this role with deep gratitude, recognizing it as both an honor and a privilege, and I remain continually inspired by the resilience and courage of those I work with. 

I look forward to working with you soon!

In Health and Harmony,
