Who am I?

I am a licensed psychotherapist with a graduate degree in Holistic Counseling (2010). My post graduate training includes Internal Family Systems Levels I & II plus numerous advanced IFS trainings, Andean shamanism, gut health and nutrition and their role in psychological distress, Reiki as a spiritual practice, Himalayan tantra, psychedelic assisted psychotherapy, and direct guidance from plant medicines and spiritual lineages.

Before I was a therapist, I worked as a touring and recording musician, mostly in Europe, often singing medieval polyphony in medieval churches. I've also been part of numerous collaborations in pop music, folk music, and performance art. I have a master's degree in music/vocal performance (2004) and was a voice teacher and vocal coach for many years. My undergraduate degree (1986) is in Biomedicine. I had thought I would become a doctor.

At this point, my training and knowledge base flows between science, art, and ancient and modern mysticism, and my mind sources from all those realms. I believe that my life purpose is to help others heal the things that block and limit their access to their inner wisdom, truth, balance, and expansion so that they may develop the capacity and learn the skills they need to live their own life purpose.
