About
As a Health Counselor, my services include massage, nutrition, therapeutic yoga, and holistic counseling. The clients who work with me receive non-invasive and natural traditional healthcare. I have supported individuals with stress and mental health symptoms, digestive problems, menstrual difficulties, inflammation, injuries, and disordered eating.
I provide insight for clients to understand their bodies, relationships, and symptoms and the actions to take to experience more health, ease, and vitality. My approach is to guide individuals to understand their bodies in an intimate way and support them to take the right actions toward feeling well.
I love working with women. I understand how it feels to be increasingly overworked, overwhelmed, and exhausted. More ease, and softness is necessary for women to experience the passion, beauty, vitality, strength, or creativity they are wanting to connect to.
Training & Background
Earning a Master’s degree in Social Work from University of Pennsylvania, I have worked in women’s trauma centers, community health clinics, inpatient and outpatient centers, and a global non-profit for over ten years. I provide care which respects your diverse choices, values, and beliefs.
Having struggled with my own health issues including poor digestion, painful periods, imbalanced hormones, and multiple food sensitivities for years. I was frustrated by conventional healthcare and medicine which would delay diagnosis and resort to pharmaceuticals and invasive procedures. With careful guidance, I was able to better understand and resolve underlying issues.
I went on to study to be an Ayurvedic Health Counselor.. I continue to learn Ayurvedic psychology, bodywork, dietetics, plant medicine, and spirituality. I align very strongly with the philosophy that our illness is not a devastation, but actually an opportunity for rediscovery.
Training
Along with a 500-hour Certification as an Ayurvedic Lifestyle-Consultant and graduate degree, I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Temple University.
