FEATURED WRITER FOR

ILLUMINATING THE HuMAN EXPERIENCE With Depth, DELIGHT & dazzle

Hello, bountiful human. Welcome to my thought haven. I'm delighted to have you.

Once a journalist igniting conversations that cracked open hearts and rewilded minds, I now walk beside people in the sacred, electric trenches of healing—as a soul-led, body-aligned, and brain-wise therapist devoted to your return to wholeness.

After more than a decade writing for top women-geared outlets like Oprah Daily, Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan, and POPSUGAR—and interviewing luminaries like Deepak Chopra, Julia Cameron, and Gabby Bernstein—I realized I didn’t just want to stop at reporting on transformation. I wanted to sit inside the fire of it with real humans. Not at arm’s length, but eye to eye. Nervous system to nervous system. Heart space to heart space.

Today, I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist and founder of Power Haven Therapy—a sanctuary for reclamation, resilience, and the radical art of unbecoming everything you were never meant to be.

I show women and couples how to shed shame, release survival patterns, and build lives that reflect their bigness and brilliance—not just their wounds. Using an artful blend of Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic practices, and neuroscience-backed mindfulness tools, I guide people back to their truth—the steady voice underneath the noise, the whole Self beneath the inherited stories.

Therapy with me isn’t about fixing you, but witnessing you. It’s about liberation—from the expectations you never agreed to meet, the systems that failed your sense of safety and worthiness, and the parts that once kept you safe but now keep you stuck.

Of course, the writer in me still lives on. I’m currently in the process of writing my first hardback book—a dazzling deep-dive into the gifts tucked inside trauma, and the strange, holy beauty of reclamation

Whether through language or deep presence, I’m here to help you meet the parts of yourself you thought you had to abandon to survive—and welcome them back to safety and joy with fierce compassion.

Thanks for landing in my orbit. The homecoming begins here. 💫
