My goal is to create a safe space for you to get clear about what you really want, to release blockages that stand in the way, and to move forward with confidence.
Self-Compassion is at the Core of all my offerings because so many of us experience disconnect between the way we are and the way we think we should be.
Self-Compassion is the antidote to this belief.
It gets us unstuck.
My career spans Europe and the U.S. with advanced degrees in business, people and change management. I am an ICF-certified coach and hold multiple certifications in mindfulness, compassion, advanced cognitive somatic practices, and integrative psychology. In addition to 1:1 coaching, I enjoy corporate consulting, leading group programs and teaching at universities.
Originally from Sweden, I live in Southern California where I love going to the beach with my two boys and husband Erik.
My Credentials
-
After working several years in career coaching and leading programs for women, I completed the Leadership Coaching Program as part of the graduate school offering at the University of San Diego. I am a Certified Coach by the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and have experience in 1:1, group and team coaching.
-
I have studied the intersection of evidence-informed and theoretical interventions for wellbeing and performance for almost two decades. I have seen first-hand the profound impact of widening the traditional lens to include what’s coming next in healing and coaching. My training includes a year of study as part of the Doctoral Program in Integrative Psychology at the California Institute of Human Sciences (CIHS) as well as several hundred hours of training in somatic trauma healing, pranic healing, Healing From the Body Level Up, and many more trainings in spirituality, meditation, and consciousness.
-
I have two business degrees, including a Masters in People and Change Management. My career spans Europe and the U.S. with experience implementing projects working with HR, C-suites, business accelerators, universities and non-profits. I also worked in recruiting and consultant management for a number of years, providing ample experience in career coaching.
-
I've studied the work of Dr. Kristin Neff and Dr. Chris Germer at the Center for Mindful Self-Compassion and am a Certified Teacher of Mindful Self-Compassion. In addition to offering this work at the newly created Center for Mindfulness at San Marcos State University, my latest courses were offered at the center for wellbeing at a major medical school to support nurses, therapists, doctoral students and the general public.
-
I have completed my teacher training, practicum, and mentorship at the UCSD Center for Mindfulness Professional Training Institute. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is the benchmark training in Mindfulness, created by Jon Kabat Zinn in 1978. There are currently over 16,000 studies on Mindfulness. Cultivating awareness of our thoughts, emotions, body sensations and senses is the anchor of integrative coaching from which all other practices grow.
