Holistic & Somatic Psychotherapy for women.

Step into Spiral & Bloom Embodiment Sanctuary, your Fresno, California haven for holistic-minded women, where we guide you on a transformative path of self-exploration, profound inner healing, and deep connection to your body.

Here, you will feel seen and understood, exactly as you are.
Through the use of mind-body/somatic approaches and tools, we dive deep into the layers of your being, including intergenerational influences and the intricate intersections of your identity, such as culture and gender. Together, we'll embark on a transformative path, ensuring that every aspect of who you are is acknowledged and integrated so you can be free to be you.

In this FREE workbook, you'll unravel your relationship with the hustle and learn exactly how you stand in opposition to the rest your mind and body truly need. My hope is that throughout these pages, you'll uncover insights into yourself and the messages you face, and perhaps even reclaim a little piece of your life that's been lost in the relentless pursuit of productivity.

Nurture your authentic self at Spiral & Bloom. Our somatic work & classes uncover the real you, to bring you back into connection with yourself. No explanations necessary. Here, you are free to be yourself & heal yourself.

find yourself &
embody your truth.

Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (MFC 121155) and GYROTONIC® Trainer at Spiral & Bloom Embodiment Sanctuary

My own personal lived experiences have cultivated a deep understanding of the multi-faceted identities and roles that individuals embody. I believe in creating a space where my clients feel seen and heard, without the burden of explaining themselves.  That's the beauty of working somatically – it goes far beyond the layer of the spoken world so we can find lasting and life changing healing in our day to day lives.

As a therapist and healer, I possess a unique ability to sense and perceive the unspoken stories that manifest through the body and energy of those I work with. I am attuned to the subtle expressions that may not be directly voiced out loud, allowing me to guide individuals on a transformative journey of exploration and profound understanding of their healing process.

A holistic perspective forms the core of my approach. I embrace the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit in the healing process. With a diverse background and a range of professional and healing trainings under my belt, I offer a comprehensive toolkit to support your specific needs.
