I’m Here to Support You

Executive & Leadership Experience

Before establishing my therapy practice, I served as an Executive Director for a decade and developed expertise as a mental health, life, and leadership coach for over twenty years, supporting leaders and founders navigating complex professional environments. This extensive firsthand experience in leadership positions and therapeutic coaching gives me unique insight into the distinctive pressures, isolation, and challenges executives face. I understand the delicate balance between professional demands and personal wellbeing, and offer a specialized therapeutic approach for leaders seeking to enhance their resilience, decision-making capacity, and authentic leadership presence while maintaining their mental health and personal relationships.

My contemplative journey began in childhood, where I discovered how the natural world offered me deeper understanding and belonging. As a young adult, I established a formal meditation practice in the vipassana (insight) tradition. This path led me to become certified through the International Mindfulness Teachers Association and accredited as a Mindfulness Teacher through the Mindfulness Training Institute. I further deepened my practice through the Awake in the Wild Teacher Training apprenticeship program with dharma teacher Mark Coleman, focusing on the intersection between contemplative practices and natural environments. My training also includes One Earth Sangha's Eco Sattva program, a contemplative-based approach to meeting our climate crisis with compassionate presence and meaningful action. These varied influences continue to inform my therapeutic work, bringing depth and grounding to our sessions.
