I do what I do so you can
repair your relationship with food, release trauma, and experience the deep self-love, freedom, and confidence you deserve.
How My Journey Began
At only 13 years old and 225 pounds, I felt trapped, self conscious, and like an outcast among my peers.
With zero knowledge of nutrition and fitness, I yo-yo dieted for a decade, from Atkins to “detox” juice cleanses… I lost the weight, but my eating became so disordered that it didn’t matter if I was thinner or fit into a smaller size in clothing; I felt just as trapped in my body and with my relationship with food.
*Spoiler alert*
There was no diet or “clean eating” lifestyle that could truly satisfy what I really wanted: true self-love, freedom, and confidence. It took me a while to get to the root, but eventually I realized that because I never felt good enough, I subconsciously became my own perpetrator; stealing away the gifts & pleasures of life through restriction and deprivation.
It wasn’t until 2014 that I discovered the practice of Intuitive Eating did I begin to practice a healthy lifestyle that felt liberating and energizing. I ditched calorie trackers and rigid tracking systems. I began to tune into my body and sought a more holistically balanced lifestyle; one that accounted for my mental peace, too.
I also immersed myself in a spiritual healing journey with yoga and energy healing. Once I stopped focusing on weight loss and switched my intentions to just healing from the inside-out, my body released the heaviness on its own.
Since healing my relationship to my body, I’ve accomplished all the things that I thought were impossible, one of which was founding my practice, Eclectic Wellness, as well as creating a conscious marriage and life with my partner and our fur babies in sunny San Diego.
Let my journey be a reminder of what’s possible for you if you knew how to properly nourish your mind, body, and soul.

Why Eclectic Wellness?
Eclectic (adjective):
deriving ideas, style, or taste from a broad and diverse range of sources
Having tried every diet and every popular health tip, I realized that there is a missing piece in our healthcare/wellness industry and that’s spiritual healing. Health is not just about looking “good” or subscribing to rigid diets, how do you want to feel?
Spiritually healing can help you end the self-sabotage and limiting beliefs to finally become an elevated, lighter, and more authentic version of you.
What you can expect when working with me…
-
If you’re looking for a holistic health practitioner that will sign off on the latest health trend, I’m not your girl. I practice what I preach, therefore every single resource and healing modality that I use with my clients is tested and verified for quality, accuracy and potency by me.
-
I don’t educate from theory, I have been in your shoes. The last thing you need is another medical professional who can’t empathize with your situation giving you a list of pills to take or foods to avoid. Health is a deeply personal, lifelong journey, but during our time together, you will have a partner to guide you through the unique hurdles and obstacles that you encounter along the path.
-
You are your greatest healer, during our time together I am not your source of healing (that comes from within) but a guide along your journey, showing you the immense power that your body holds. It’s my core desire that at the end of our time together you are able to navigate your health journey feeling confident and connected with your body.
-
Not everything about health needs to be a 10 page pubmed study to be legitimized. Healing is a balance of science AND spirituality. During our time together, I evaluate your circumstances through the lens of spirituality and energy - taking a heart-centered approach to see you as a WHOLE person not simply a breathing conglomerate of symptoms.
