I’m Emily, an Integrative Coach. I facilitate growth for women in mid-life transitions who want to be empowered and step into the highest versions of themselves.  With 11 years of experience as an integrative practitioner of bodywork modalities, my services have expanded to include transformational work through Embodiment Coaching. I am passionate and invested in helping people grow into their true selves, feel deeply, and experience life with more richness. It is a great honor to provide a safe space for my clients as they explore the mysteries, challenges, and wisdom within themselves. This transformation goes beyond simple perspective shifts; it involves gaining new insight to break free from old patterns, habits, and dependencies. Although this process takes time, with dedication and gentle accountability, true blossoming will occur.

In addition to being a successful business owner and a mother of three, I have had diverse experiences throughout my life. I found fulfillment in leading and inspiring others as a Zoo Educator and Keeper at the world-famous San Diego Zoo and as an eco-tour guide in Mexico. I have enjoyed creativity as a jewelry designer, as well as a designer and instructor of floral design. My love for travel has shaped much of my worldview and philosophy, informed by the incredible experiences I’ve had around the globe. I hold a BA with Honors from UC Santa Cruz and a certificate in Integrative Massage Therapy from the University of New Mexico. These various life experiences gave me a deep perspective, awareness, and the ability to listen and hold space for others with compassion and wisdom.

 My work is supported by my training in VITA™ Coaching methodology as a Sex, Love, and Relationship Coach. I completed a program over 2 years with 600+ hours of training, profoundly shaping my personal and professional growth. My education encompasses science-backed neurobiology, a modern psychological and therapeutic approach that includes parts work, neo-tantric principles, and Taoist philosophy. I practice in-person in my lovely Sonoma studio for Bay Area clients and online sessions for anyone around the globe.

Whether you are a long-time acquaintance, referred by a friend, or have sought me out on your own, you are in safe and caring hands, and I look forward to getting to know you. I meet my clients where they are, assist with accountability, and help navigate emotional resistance using somatic practices and embodiment techniques. Together, we will work on your journey toward becoming your best and most expansive self.
