I facilitate groups designed to provide emotional support and enhance inner resilience. My two areas of focus are parenting support and climate mental health. I am passionate about creating courageous and tender spaces where people can come together, unguarded, and do the emotional work needed to show up more fully in their own lives, as well as for their children, their communities, and this planet so in need. I love what I do and am grateful to be able to do this work.
