Mindfulness: Awareness is the Foundation for Transformation

My Approach

For over fifteen years, I’ve supported individuals, families, educators, and leaders through mindfulness classes, retreats, and professional trainings. My work helps people shift their relationship to stress, cultivate compassion, and reconnect with clarity, steadiness and emotional wellbeing.

As a Certified Mindfulness Teacher (UCLA Mindful, IMTA), Mindful Self-Compassion teacher, and holder of advanced certification in Trauma-Sensitive Mindfulness, I integrate neuroscience, contemplative wisdom, trauma-informed practice, and compassion-based skills to create accessible and transformative learning experiences.

Mentored by Susan Kaiser Greenland and Diana Winston, pioneers in secular mindfulness, I bring evidence-based, secular mindfulness practices to families, educators, communities, and organizations. I also lead mindful leadership and corporate wellbeing trainings that strengthen emotional intelligence, deepen presence, and enhance communication, helping teams cultivate greater clarity, trust, resilience, and more effective collaboration.

Ways to Work with Me

Mindful Leadership

Mindful leadership invites authenticity, empathy, and purpose into the way we lead. Through executive trainings and team programs, I teach leaders how to apply mindfulness, emotional intelligence, and compassion to decision-making, communication, and organizational wellbeing that fosters integrity, collaboration, and a healthy culture from the inside out.

Mindful Self-Compassion

I teach and draw from Dr Kristin Neff and Dr Christopher Germer’s 8-week Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) program that teaches how to meet life’s challenges with kindness rather than self-criticism. I guide participants in cultivating emotional resilience, inner stability, and wellbeing through evidence-based mindfulness and compassion practices.

Mindful Parenting

Mindfulness invites parents and families to slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with what truly matters. I offer practical tools and coaching that support communication, compassion, and connection at home that help families regulate together, build trust, and thrive with greater ease and understanding. I also offer a Mindful Parenting Coaching Series designed specifically for families navigating ADHD and attentional challenges.

Trauma-Sensitive Mindfulness

My trauma-informed approach blends neuroscience, somatic regulation, mindfulness, and compassion practices to support safety, grounding, and trust. With an emphasis on regulation before reflection, mindfulness becomes accessible for all and a tool for people to heal from toxic stress. I also created a Trauma-Informed Mindfulness Training offered through ECHO Training.
