Hey There! 👋🏻

therapist → author here…

After a 13+ year career as a somatic trauma therapist, I’m leaning into the next soul calling.

I’m accepting the next “assignment” in this lifetime, which means… sharing my writing. 😬

First up:

  • Publishing my first book - Can People Really Change?

  • Getting the Self-Trust Model© into an easy to access book format (that doesn’t become a cheesy self-help book).

  • The real liberation of my heart… a memoir on indecision + motherhood. 🖤

What started as a reflection series (just for me) to help me bring completion to a 13+ year career as a therapist…

Turned into 13 lessons on living life.

Allow the lessons to be a jumping off point into your truest desires.

My favorite writing is almost here…

This book won’t give you the answers. But it will give you tools to discover your answers for yourself.

The entire Self-Trust Model© in a book.

Available April 13, 2025!

Coming Soon…

There’s a camp of women who have always known they’ve wanted to be moms.

More recently, there’s another group of vocal women, who are proudly child-free by choice. And have clarity about that decision.

For two decades, I did not belong on either side. But I wanted to. And the indecision almost wrecked me.

This book is for the women also living in the question. To be, or not to be… a mother.
