My Mission:

My Background:
I bring all of me into the work I do. In my early 20’s, I began my own preschool where I learned how to communicate with children and used principles of Positive Psychology with them.
Then, for fourteen years through my 20’s and into my 30’s, I was a founding member of Kripalu Center for Yoga where I studied, practiced, and taught yoga, meditation, and healthy living.
After Kripalu, I went on to study Oriental medicine and continue, today, with a thriving practice in acupuncture and healing arts, helping people reach their health and well being goals.
I have pursued training in Soluna Life Coaching, Certification in Positive Psychology,and Positive Psychology Coaching to clarify and expand my work with people.Throughout the year, I teach workshops on positively living larger with a focus on Positive Psychology.
