ABOUT ME: My Mom and Dad grew up on different sides of the tracks from different cultures -my Mom from Echo Park in Los Angeles and my Dad from Palm Springs, CA. As a teacher, I taught every grade level and most subjects. I taught history, photography, psychology, geology, english, yoga, etc. I dive deep into every pursuit and then I want to learn something new. I used to feel something was wrong with me because I couldn’t commit to one thing. In recent years, however, I have come to embrace this side of me and relish in the gifts it brings me. Though I have been content as a teacher in the classroom for nearly 20 years, my interest has always been more focused on the whole student rather than the specifics of the course content. I have found that schooling can ignore the psychology of students and can prioritise conformity and grades over meaning and joy. Students are so much more successful when they are aligned with their inner strengths and feel confident.

My personal spiritual and psychological journey led me to see that when I follow my own inner compass, the external world falls into place and I feel so much better. My experience with a life coach showed me that life coaching as a transformative tool is equal to therapy. I completed my doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology in Jan, 2022. I respect and value therapy and psychological science AND life coaching continues to prove lasting changes in me. I have a BA in history with a minor in dance, a Masters in education and history, and a Masters certificate in Women Studies. I am a certified yoga teacher.

I am also a certified Martha Beck Life Coach. There is so much transformation that can occur when we focus on the present with support and find ways to move forward that are in line with our essential selves. Life coaching feels life affirming!
