I’m Carly. Born in Calgary, Alberta (Blackfoot) and raised in Mesa, Arizona. (Hohokam) My father is 2nd generation cantonese Chinese and my mother is 3rd generation Austrian-English. 

I currently live between Marin County (Coastal Miwok) in SF Bay Area and the big island of Hawai’i (Nā moku ʻehā). 

I was raised by a father suffering the trauma of intergenerational immigration challenges, poverty and abuse. He physically abused my mother, myself and brother. My mother, child of emotionally detached parents had narcissistic characteristics. Due to lack of a safe environment, security and love, along with the authoritarian evangelical-christian brainwashingI suffered CPTSD which showed up as chronic shyness, self criticism, doubt, unworthiness, a host of trust issues and sense of isolation. 

I began my journey towards healing at the age of 16, which involved becoming a nomad, traveling the world, becoming a circus street performer, artist, actress/model and exploring shamanism, sexuality, buddhism, meditation, yoga, psychedelics, spiritual healing, energetic healing, somatics, neural rewiring, and so much more.

I can now say that thanks to this journey I have the experiential skill set to resonate with my clients challenges and I have the ability to say “yes, healing is truly possible.” AND it doesn't have to take as long as it did for me! 

I can also say that I have become a powerful embodied woman with an incredible self-awareness and true capacity to offer and be the gift that I was meant to be when I was incarnated into this world. 

I specialize in trauma-related challenges, supporting clients who experience symptoms of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and complex developmental trauma. I support clients to feel safe in their bodies, self-aware and to navigate challenging life situations. I show my clients how to listen to their bodies to connect to their own innate wisdom. 

I am an expert at life change and transformation. I work with my client to see the realm of possibilities and potential and to overhaul the belief systems that keep them from living an outrageously gratifying life. 

I support a whole system shift; physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing, which includes ALL aspects of one's life. 

I am a constant leaner, warm, empathic, funny, and I think out of the box. 

As a coach and somatic therapist I’m not restricted by location and can see clients Online Virtually and offer 1:1 personal in Hawaii

I love working with individuals, couples and families who are desiring more embodiment, emotional resiliency, nervous system regulation and more clarity and ease in their lives. 

I come to my clients with a vast toolbox of over 25 years of experience in the field of personal development, healing, quantum physics and spirituality along with a science based approach to understanding and releasing trauma stored in the body. 

I also deeply trust our body’s innate intelligence and capacity to heal when given the time, space and right keys.

I am informed by my higher intuition and often ask a “higher intelligence” to support the process with my client so as to keep my own biases and personal experience from tainting the healing process. 

I am deeply moved and connected to the systems of oppression of multiple ethnicities and intergenerational trauma still stored and passed on in our world. 

My desire is to break the cycles by supporting the healing and expansion of each one of my clients so as not to continue the damaging cycle that affects so many aspects of our society as we know it. 

My greatest value is authenticity. I believe that being who we truly are on all levels is the key to radical self love, true connection and aligned action.
