hey there!

Passionate about helping people thrive, I blend my personal journey with the power of lifestyle medicine to support mental health and stress recovery.

Before I knew the research behind the benefits of nutrition, exercise, and stress reduction, these were the practices I naturally embraced.

Now, as a psychotherapist and health coach, I am dedicated to sharing these proven strategies to guide others toward a healthier, happier life. Join me in exploring the transformative effects of lifestyle changes that I have experienced firsthand and that research wholeheartedly supports.

Let's make mental wellness a vibrant part of your everyday life!

YOU CAN FIND ME:

I'm NOT ABOUT:

My concept of Mental Wellness which includes a healthy mind and body to live the life you desire.
  • Work that you love
  • Healthy food - with some guilty pleasures
  • Balancing work with playtime
  • Age is nothing but a number

I BELIEVE IN:

I understand the ups and downs of stress from my own experiences. Take the pandemic lockdown, for instance. Keeping my stress in check and energy up was important, especially with the challenges of managing my busy private practice. Therefore I didn't forfeit my weekly home workouts and trips to the farmers market. 

But there's another side to chronic stress that often goes unnoticed—it’s a widespread health syndrome that’s frequently ignored by our healthcare system.

After years of advanced training and certifications, including Integrative Medicine for Mental Health and Functional Psychiatry I use proven, researched-based treatments to help professionals recover from burnout.

Most clients are not aware how poorly managed stress can contribute to their health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, and even mental disorders like depression and anxiety. 
This is when talk therapy is not enough.

In my psychotherapy practice, I've seen more people coming in with symptoms related to long-term stress, which is really taking a toll on their total health. During many of our sessions, I’m forced to step into the role of a health coach, guiding them through lifestyle changes to bounce back from how deeply chronic stress has disrupted their health.

therapy is something we just do not participate in. Fast forward 2 1/2 years late, THE BEST DECISION EVER!
The best is yet to come.”
