Naturopathic medical school
​
Five tough years of medical school shaped me to learn more about the foundations and obstacles of health. During this time in addition to primary care medicine, I took a special interest and advanced training in mind-body medicine, biofeedback, mental health counseling, and homeopathic medicine. Diagnosing and treating patients for mental and physical health conditions through an integrative approach was humbling work. But after a few years working in the medical profession, I found myself unfulfilled—something still was not feeling right. Even though it was a beautiful profession, it was not fully aligned with my dreams and personal gifts.
​
​Coaching as my true purpose
​
Through a pull from my inner voice I made a courageous decision to enroll in a life coaching certification program. I experienced the beauty of coaching first-hand and it transformed my life. :)
​
I discovered my core self, inner values and purpose. I learned powerful tools to create a beautiful relationship with myself, others and all of life. I overcame deep seated patterns of self-doubt, fear of judgment, lack of confidence that were holding me back for most of my life. I learned to embrace all parts of me and have the courage to shine my light authentically.
​
I realized that serving as a coach was my zone of genius. More than clinical medicine this is where my natural gifts, inner calling and joy resided. Coaching was the medicine I was always wanting to offer in the world. One that calls a person forward to develop their own awareness and skills to powerfully navigate life, heal their inner world and create their dreams. Empowering people to reconnect to their inherent wholeness and actualize their full potential.
​
I now combine my years of experience in naturopathic medicine, understanding the foundations of wellbeing and mind-body health, with the transformative method of life coaching to provide powerful containers for transformation for my clients and larger community. This is the work that is aligned for me, and that I know can deeply heal and transform the world.​

What is your life’s work and story? I would be honored to hold space for you to discover and create all that you deeply desire. <3

Origins
I grew up with a deep desire to serve others and create meaningful impact in the world. I was a carefree and loving child with big dreams of shining my light. As I grew up, through the conditioning in society and the limiting beliefs I adopted of what was possible for me, that dream was dimmed in an effort to fit in. I started keeping to myself not knowing if I would be loved if I shared who I really was.
​
In deciding my career path I thought that being a doctor was the most noble way for me to serve the world and to make my family proud of me. Though my inherent gifts were my compassion, presence, intuition, creativity, and love for personal growth and spirituality.
​
I knew in my heart that conventional medicine did not resonate with me, so I made the bold decision to go to naturopathic medical school and to become a licensed naturopathic doctor.

OUR UNIQUE APPROACH
My Role as a Coach
As a coach my role is to see you in your potential and to guide you in actualizing that potential in yourself.
I intend to hold a clear, present and compassionate space for you to deepen your connection with your own loving self and inner wisdom. I will ask you powerful questions, lead you through transformative processes to heal and find the answers within yourself. I will call you forward out of your comfort zone into taking action towards your goals, supporting you with accountability each step of the way.
My Unique Approach
​In the Mastery Method Life Coaching framework that I am trained in, I guide you in creating change and transformation in your life from the inside-out.
I help you clear patterns from the root so you no longer project them onto people or situations. I use a combination of mindset work, somatic work, emotional resilience work, unconscious reprogramming, and strategic goal setting. I provide support in creating foundations of wellbeing through sustainable habit change. I teach you powerful mind-body self-regulation tools such as breathing, meditation and mindfulness. And I help you shift your energy through embodiment techniques and the art of manifestation.
​
I combine both inner healing and energetic work with grounded action steps and strategy- which helps you tap into your full potential and powerfully take your life to the next level. I intend to help you learn skills that will benefit you throughout your life journey.
​
I commit to creating a welcoming space for clients of all identities, personalities and walks of life who are committed to their inner and outer growth.
