I am here to support and empower you by giving you highly effective tools and insights designed to help you detangle from worn- out restrictive habit patterns. The ultimate goal of our work is help you identify and change the patterns that interfere with your physical and mental health and your genuine fulfillment at work, at home and in your community.
As we work together I will draw on my clinical background and my extensive experience with tools from psychology, behavioral science, mindfulness-based interventions, mindfulness meditation and the practical yogic philosophy.
In addition to individual coaching work, I offer classes, workshops and programs for businesses, schools and community groups.
