I’ve Walked This Path. Now I Walk Beside You.

I know what it's like to be in midlife—tired, anxious, overwhelmed. To look at everything you've built and wonder, "Is this what I worked so hard for?"

I know what it's like to miss the younger parts of yourself and desperately want to find your way back.

And I know what it's like to stand at the midlife threshold wanting to make the second half of your life the best it can possibly be.

The Turning Point

For years, I was the woman who could do anything.

I built two behavioral health companies from the ground up. I opened a vinyl record store. I ran a small ads business. I coached other therapists. I was purposeful, driven, responsible.

But inside, I was burning out — the kind of burnout that robs you of your soul.

ne night, too tired to cook, eating a sandwich and reading O magazine, I came across an article about toxic relationships, and I realized: I was in one. With my work.

So I did the unthinkable. I walked away from everything I'd built.

I embraced the silence. I explored my own desires. I became embodied. And piece by piece, I found the woman I was always meant to be.

Midlife isn't a crisis. It's a threshold.

A chance to shed what no longer fits and to reclaim the wild, radiant woman you've always been underneath the roles, the responsibilities, the relentless doing.

She's been with you all along.

For 25 years as a psychotherapist and somatic depth coach, I've walked with over 2,300 women through this threshold—not as someone who has it all figured out, but as someone who knows the terrain well enough to guide you through it.

How I Work

There are things we understand with our minds—and things we know in deeper ways.

A tightening in the body. A feeling that keeps returning. A pattern we can see but can't seem to change. A longing we can't quite name. A sense that something in our lives no longer fits, even when we don't yet know what comes next.

My work makes room for all of it.

I call my approach The SOMA Code™. Together, we listen to what the mind, body, psyche, and soul are communicating—not as separate parts to fix, but as different ways of knowing yourself.

From there, the work moves through Belonging → Becoming → Being™.

Belonging is learning to belong back to yourself—to listen inwardly, trust what you find there, and reclaim the parts of yourself that may have been quieted, adapted, or left behind.

Becoming is allowing yourself to change—to loosen what no longer fits and give shape to what is emerging now.

Being is living from that deeper knowing—with greater congruence between who you are, what you value, and the life you choose to create.

This isn't about reinventing yourself.

It's about returning to yourself deeply enough to recognize who you are becoming—and living from there.

“A life truly lived constantly burns away veils of illusion, burns away what is no longer relevant, gradually reveals our essence, until, at last, we are strong enough to stand in our naked truth.”
