"I know what it feels like to yearn for deeper connection and the courage to live in alignment with who I truly am."
Following the threads of my heart's longing.
Growing up as a sensitive child who moved countries at age five, I often felt like I didn’t belong. I found refuge in my inner world of dreams and magic, imagining a day when I might be able to express all that stirred within me and feel resonance and belonging.
20 years ago, this dream led me to embark on a journey—through many different ways of life, relationship structures and healing modalities.
As I awakened my embodied intuition, I was guided to leave my social justice career in NYC and move to California's Bay Area, where I studied and later taught yoga, bodywork, and embodied spirituality, alongside clinical training in somatic psychotherapy and couples therapy.
Each step along my path shaped me, but my deepest liberation came in spaces where I felt safe and free to explore sexuality as a sacred portal—one that led me into vulnerability and erotic aliveness, connected me with my tribe, and taught me to embrace my energetic sensitivity as a gift.
Through this work, I recovered from trauma, stepped into sexual sovereignty, and met my partner in love and life.
My path awakened a deep remembrance of who I am and ignited my calling to share the medicine of soulful intimacy and erotic embodiment with others.
After earning my Master’s degree in Counseling and Somatic Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies, I opened my therapy practice abroad, supporting couples in multicultural relationships, guiding women through embodied transformation and facilitating intimacy workshops.
Then I became a mother, and my path both deepened and expanded. While pregnant with my second child, I was initiated as a priestess in the sacred rose lineage. And so, along with my daughter, my vision for Soma Soul was born — a space that merges the power of soma (body), sexuality and soul.
Today, I live with my partner and two children in Nosara, Costa Rica, where we raise our family, lead heart-driven businesses, and weave our dream of a more connected way of life immersed in nature, embodiment and community.

After more than a decade of working globally with thousands of women and couples, I have seen how a focus on sexuality, intimacy and soul awakens parts of us that other therapeutic approaches often cannot reach.
This is what led me to expand beyond therapy work to offer embodied intimacy coaching and retreats, blending my therapeutic expertise with training in the Somatica® method, priestess arts and bodywork - to infuse the transformative power of our erotic energy and soulful desires into every aspect of our lives.
In learning to trust the wild urgings of my heart and soul while navigating my path as a mother, partner and somatic guide, I’ve discovered something simple yet powerful:
Beneath the layers of shame, trauma, and conditioning we carry as a human community, there is a flame of life within each of us that can never be extinguished. When we reconnect directly with this potent source of energy, held deep within our sexuality, we awaken our power to live and love in alignment with who we truly are, and in a way that simply feels good in our bodies and souls.
This is why I believe that what many of us need today isn’t more self-improvement work —but a return to our embodied wholeness, relational roots and the mystery and magic that connects us all.
What once felt like a distant longing became my calling.
Giving thanks
I am deeply grateful to the many guides, mentors, and loved ones who have shaped my journey.
I am thankful to my family of origin, soul family, and especially my partner and children, who have taught me the most about belonging and love.
I honor my rose priestess sisters with whom I weave magic.
And I give thanks to the many places that have been home to me along the way, including beautiful Nosara, Costa Rica, where we currently reside.
