I've often chosen the road less traveled. In my late twenties, while many of my friends were settling down and having children, I quit my job and backpacked for over a year through Southeast Asia. I trekked the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal, climbed Mt. Rinjani's volcano rim in Indonesia, and completed a month-long silent vipassana meditation retreat in Thailand. After this journey, I returned to my career, but I saw it through a different lens. My traditionally trained western brain was infused with eastern philosophy. 

But the biggest joy of my life journey was becoming a mother. After two miscarriages, my husband and I were told that we could only conceive a child via IVF, and our chance of success with IVF was less than 10%. We were devastated and started exploring other options to becoming parents, including adoption and foster parenting. My experience in the eastern/spiritual world called me to first try acupuncture. Against the odds, with the help of acupuncture we conceived our daughter naturally. Fifteen-months later, we were also blessed with our son.

Motherhood has been the biggest blessing and challenge that I've encountered. In my practice, I help mothers find the emotional support and validation that they need to make active changes in their daily lives. I look forward to meeting you!
