The Chrysopoeia Collective In ancient texts, the term chrysopoeia meant the transmutation of lead into gold. I believe this alchemy exists for all of us when we do the work to transform our internal struggles into our deepest knowing.
“The bud
stands for all things,
even for those things that don’t flower,
for everything flowers, from within, of self-blessing...”
— Galway Kinnell
It’s Your Turn.
For most of my professional life, I have worked as a licensed therapist with clinical experience across major hospital systems and private practice. I have worked with teens on the cusp of their whole lives and those near death in medical settings. I know the value of talk therapy firsthand, but I also know it has limits.
My own journey to find a deeper calling in my life led me first to meditation and expanded state breathwork. From there I continued my exploration of expanded states and somatic coaching, with certified training in these areas to support my own inner work. The transformation in my own life made me realize that I am called to bring this work to others.
I will never ask you to abandon what has already helped you. Instead, I ask you to consider that our work together may open the door to your next chapter, and the life you crave. My work asks: What becomes possible when we stop talking about change and start embodying it? I believe that real, lasting transformation happens when we make that shift. My hope is that I can help guide you toward a life that feels truly alive.
I am here to meet you exactly where you are today, and I look forward to walking alongside you as you build a life that embraces your sacred power.
Work with Me
My services are tailored for those who have reached the limits of what talk therapy can offer, and are ready for a more embodied approach to healing themselves.
Somatic Coaching
Somatic Coaching is body-led, intentional work for those ready to change not just their thinking, but their way of being in the world around them. Our bodies are the roadmaps of our lives, and somatic coaching invites you to get curious about what patterns your body is holding, and why it clings to them. By working at the physical level, my work helps you learn where you have been; and, more importantly, where your body can take you.

Meditation is the practice of returning, over and over again, to the present moment. It is both the simplest and most challenging work you can do, and it forms the foundation of an intentional life. Many people avoid meditation because they do not know where to begin. I can guide you into a sustainable meditation practice that supports all of your deeper work, becoming a daily anchor for the changes you are working toward.

Breath is one of the most powerful - and underutilized -tools we have. Expanded State Breathwork uses sustained, intentional breathing to create an altered state of consciousness, giving you access to the parts of yourself that live beneath the everyday mind. Just you, your breath, and the journey shared when you get quiet enough to listen. For those considering plant medicine, expanded state breathwork is a pathway to exploring the landscape of altered state journeys.

Dedicated integration sessions are a natural extension of my work. Whether you are processing what arose in a breathwork or somatic practice, a meditation, or a plant medicine journey you undertook elsewhere, integration sessions provide the thoughtful, supported space to understand what you were shown and how to live differently because of it. Integration sessions are where we find meaning, weave this awareness into daily life, and allow the work to actually change you.
Explore integrationDeep inner work brings so much to the surface, and often people need help to make meaning of these feelings, realizations and visions. However, uncovering something is only the beginning of the work. What you do with the information that emerges is where the transformation takes root. I have found this transformation in myself, and am called to hold space for others who seek embodied living.
Kristyn is a longtime friend and colleague. I have referred several friends, family members, and clients to Kristyn for deep inner work and integration. She is deeply professional, competent, and endlessly compassionate. I have had the pleasure of watching her practice her craft and I trust her deeply. She has profound respect for inner healing intelligence and weaves in integration seamlessly. Kristyn’s ability to hold space for every range of the human experience is a rare gift.

Let’s do more than talk.
My work is rooted in the belief that everything you need to heal yourself already lives within you. Sometimes you just need someone to hold up the mirror while you reflect on and determine your best path. I am ready to show you what I see in you. If you’re ready to move beyond the conversation and into the work, I would love to hear from you. You can schedule a complimentary 15-minute conversation via my Calendly link to take the first step.
