Offerings

My approach is holistic. I coach in five domains of being: physical, emotional, spiritual, creative, and relational. Together, we explore these aspects of your existence to support healing, alignment, and growth.

I am experienced in supporting leaders, creators, and parents; those who have experienced marginalization because of their identities; and people navigating life transitions, grief, or trauma. I am also skilled in exploring ancestral connections, spirituality, and existential questions. 

My strength lies in holding space for liminal, in-between states—when something old is falling away and something new has not yet taken form. I know that we must feel to heal, and I draw on a range of embodied, creative, and contemplative strategies to guide that process.

While I am not a licensed psychotherapist and may not be the right fit if you’re in an active crisis, my work is most supportive for those who are psychologically stable and seeking clarity, integration, or expansion. That said, the process of self-exploration can uncover unrecognized wounds. For this reason, I strongly encourage clients to also work with a therapist or mental health provider alongside our work.

In this journey, you are your own healer. I am here to hold space, offer guidance, and support the unfolding of your inner wisdom.

The Two Day Retreat

This immersive experience offers a jump-start to transformative change. It’s a chance to pause, reflect, and reconnect to yourself on a deeper level.

The container includes:

  • Three virtual sessions before the immersion to prepare and clarify your intentions

  • Two in-person days together, designed as a spacious, personalized retreat

  • Several integration sessions afterward to support meaning-making and sustained change

A Two Day is a powerful threshold. It allows you to step back and reflect on how you are, where you are, and where you’re being called next. It also invites you to explore deeper material—patterns, grief, trauma, or limiting beliefs that may no longer serve you.

Each Two Day is unique. Practices may include coaching, sound healing, flower baths, ceremonies, walking in the redwoods, mandala creation, and more.

While many elements will be thoughtfully planned in advance, we will stay responsive to what emerges—your needs, desires, and intuitive knowing will shape our time together.

Don't turn your head. Keep looking at the bandaged place.

That's where the light enters you. 

— Rumi

The Intensive Retreat

Neuroscience shows that the first week after an experience in an expanded state of consciousness is one of the most potent windows for lasting transformation. During the experience, different regions of the brain begin communicating in new ways. This can lead to powerful insights, emotional releases, and a felt sense of healing.

In that first week, the brain is highly neuroplastic—it’s actively rewiring. New thoughts and beliefs take root more easily. What you focus on during this time becomes exponentially magnified, shaping long-term habits and patterns.

But without support, many people return to ordinary life too quickly. Insights fade. Old patterns creep back in. The magic dissolves.

Imagine your beliefs and behaviors as seeds. In the days after an expanded state, your mind becomes a kind of magical greenhouse—what you water and tend during this window is likely to grow strong and enduring. That’s why I offer the Intensive Container: a highly structured program designed to help you not only have a meaningful experience—but integrate it in ways that truly change your life.

The Intensive Container includes:

  • 4 preparation sessions
    (3 on Zoom + 1 in-person session)

  • 5-day retreat
    Includes lodging, one nourishing meal per day, daily cacao, guided experiences, and 3 hours per day of coaching and integrative practices (flower baths, oracle work, art-making, nature-based rituals)

  • 6 integration sessions
    (5 on Zoom + 1 in-person)

  • A fully customized preparation + integration plan
    Based on your needs, intentions, and goals

During the retreat, you’ll be invited to disconnect from your phone and deepen into presence. You’ll commit to daily practices like meditation, light movement, healthy eating, forest bathing, and journaling—practices that amplify and sustain the shifts catalyzed by your journey.

This program is for those who are ready to devote themselves to their healing and transformation. It's for people who know they’re on the edge of change—and want skilled support to take a giant step forward.

Due to the intensive nature of this program, space is limited and participation is by application. I offer this container on a sliding scale, in alignment with my commitment to accessibility and equity.

If you are ready to shed old beliefs and behaviors, and to cultivate a more integrated, whole, and vibrant version of yourself—I welcome you.

Ritual is the oldest way we know to support change. It also functions as a bridge between the “inner world” and the “outer world.”  Ritual is a way of honoring sacred intention. The more we can bring ritual and ceremony into our lives, the more balanced our inner and outer worlds become.

Small Group Retreats

I also facilitate intimate, residential retreats for small groups. These gatherings include ceremony and are designed for those who have prior experience with such experiences. This prerequisite helps ensure that all participants can engage with the depth and vulnerability the experience invites.

These retreats are experiential and relational. Together, we explore how to cultivate authentic, meaningful connection—with ourselves, with each other, and with the mystery that lives between us. They offer a chance to learn not only who we are, but who we are in relationship.

While many of the practices mirror those in the Two Day Intensive—such as ritual, nature-based exploration, art, and body-based integration—what unfolds is ultimately co-created. Participants shape the container through their presence, stories, and intentions.

Those who gather in these retreats often form bonds that extend well beyond the closing circle—relationships that root and blossom across seasons of life.

Each retreat has an area of exploration or is an invitation to a specific group of people. These include:

  • A retreat for BIPOC women

  • A retreat for women over 50

  • Healing our mother-wounds

  • Holding space for grief

  • Healing our ancestor wounds

The early stages of change or cure may mimic deterioration. Cut a chrysalis open, and you will find a rotting caterpillar…the process of transformation consists almost entirely of decay.

The Setting

Intensives and retreats are held at The Sanctuary—a private, peaceful space nestled in the hills of western Sonoma County, near the town of Occidental. Included in the cost of your retreat is lodging on site, and a few homemade meals and nourishing snacks. 

Surrounded by trees and adjacent to a redwood forest, The Sanctuary offers a quiet, nature-immersed environment for reflection, healing, and deep inner work. This setting is an integral part of the journey—designed to invite stillness, presence, and reconnection with yourself and the land.
