With over 30 years of experience in sustainable systems change, I support individuals and organizations navigating trauma at the intersections of identity and injustice. I am a trauma survivor and thriver, committed to helping others heal from betrayal—whether personal, institutional, or societal.

As an award-winning social justice consultant, speaker, educator, and author, I draw from backgrounds in developmental, liberation, and transformational psychology. My approach integrates:

• Mindfulness-Based Addiction Trauma Recovery (MBAT-RC)

• Somatic experiencing, psychosynthesis & brainspotting

• Trauma-informed chair yoga & healing prayer

• Internal family systems & cultural somatic abolitionism

• Psychoeducation, neuro-informed coaching, and family systems theory

I hold degrees in Education (AA, PhD), Human Development (BA, MA), and Psychology (MS), and certifications from APSATS (Certified Partner Coach Candidate), ERCEM (Empathy Recovery Coach Candidate), and IDI® (Qualified Administrator). I'm also a Certified Polarity Thinking™/PACT™ Practitioner.

My coaching spans:

Developmental life & executive coaching

Racialized trauma & minoritization

Betrayal trauma healing for partners impacted by sexual betrayal (MPTM & ERCEM models)

Clients—from individuals to institutions—describe my work as enlightening, refreshing, and transformative. Whether you're seeking personal growth or organizational change, I'm here to partner with you on your healing journey.

"Disparity Trap" is the Socially Conscious Board Game (click on books and resources in the site menu bar to access) that provides an easy way to have the hard conversations around race & privilege in America, and how they impact society in Systemically Dominant (SD)™ and Systemically Non Dominant (SND)™ ways. The board game is like many of its kind, where your main goal is to live your life the way you choose; go to school, get a job, possibly build a family and a career. But in this game, you also step into someone else’s shoes to experience that life within an identity different from your own. Throughout the game, the dice rolls correlate your identity in the game to real life statistics. So like life, the dice are in your hands, but the odds are not.
