I have been working with children and families in educational settings and in private practice for many years. As both an educator and a facilitator I bring many diverse talents to my work, including doula support, yoga, bodywork and early childhood development. I began my career with a masters in early childhood development from Arcadia University in Philadelphia. I went on to become a child development specialist for a hospital based HIV and drug treatment program, have taught pre-school and was a program coordinator for an early intervention center working with families and children with special needs from birth to age three.

Through my lifelong personal exploration of yoga and my training as a massage and CranioSacral therapist, I have developed a unique and diverse practice and have created a program that is individualized and more wholistic than mainstream interventions. Moving From Within is the culmination of my vision to bring together all of these passions.
