• I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Supervisor, practicing in Austin, Texas since 2013. I also have extensive training in various modalities including Past Life Regression, Sound Healing, Alchemical Tarot and various forms of Energy Work.

    Before becoming a therapist, I owned and operated a restaurant in the late 90's and had a career in Information Technology. I am a mother, step-mother and grandmother, animal lover and immersive cook. Born in Dallas, Texas in January 1968, I am the oldest of 5 children, raised mostly in Dallas, except for a few years of high school in Italy and college in Switzerland and Washington DC. 

    I moved to Austin, Texas in December, 1989 and never left.  My personal symbol is the lightening bolt, for a lot of reasons. My favorite movie is The Fifth Element. I'm an optimist. I believe in great mystery. And I look forward to knowing you.

  • I am not a passive or quiet therapist. I am engaged, non-judgmental, curious, challenging when necessary, and deeply compassionate. I am able to listen actively and carefully, and to honor your pace and boundaries, without letting you avoid the work. My approach is natural and contextual. I try to avoid pathologizing labels and branded methodologies.

    As a Regression therapist, and working with Sound and Energy, I am devoted to helping my clients have their own experience, access their own Knowing, and be liberated from fear and the illusion of separateness. I have no agenda in terms of your beliefs or your path. 

  • I believe we each have a soul or spirit that exists independently from the body, and that our souls come into these bodies and these lifetimes in cycles of learning and growth. 

    I believe there is one Source, commonly referred to as "God", which I believe is fully present in every soul, every moment and every thing, and yet far beyond comprehension in human terms.

    I believe that religious concepts of exclusivity or "chosen-ness" are spiritual distortions. 

    I believe we are all traveling similar but unique paths of spiritual growth, and that we cannot compare or judge each other's paths. 

    I believe that spiritual growth comes most often (but not only) through struggle and suffering; difficult lives and circumstances are rich with opportunity for learning and healing.

    Blissful connection is also rich with opportunity for learning and healing :)

    I was raised in the U.S. and Italy in a Roman Catholic family and attended Catholic schools, but I am not aligned with any particular religious tradition, community or practice, and I have no agenda regarding your beliefs.  I personally like what Gandhi said: "I am a Muslim, and a Hindu, and a Christian and a Jew, and so are all of you."​ 

    While I do not belong to any particular tradition, I do have a vibrant personal spiritual practice, which includes powerful spiritual hygiene within my own being and within my home, living and work spaces.
