Welcome to Soul of the Lotus
Root. Realign. Reconnect. Rise.
Transformation isn’t a destination—it’s a living, breathing journey. A path of deep healing, embodied growth, and radical self-discovery. I don’t just guide this journey—I walk it alongside you.
Who I Am & What I Do
I’m Caroline—a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Trauma-Informed Breathwork Facilitator, HypnoBreathwork® and Hypnotherapy Facilitator, and Certified Somatic Coach. But beyond the credentials, I am a bridge between science and soul, a guide through the wildfire of transformation, and living proof of the power of resilience and embodied healing.
My work isn’t about perfection—it’s about raw, real, embodied change.
I integrate trauma-informed therapy, somatic healing, breathwork, and subconscious reprogramming to help you navigate life’s challenges, regulate your nervous system, and reclaim your authentic power.
Healing isn’t something that happens to you—it’s something you activate within yourself. My role is to hold space for your evolution, guide you through the storm without fear, and remind you that your breath is the catalyst for deep transformation.
With over 20 years of experience, I’ve guided hundreds through profound healing—helping them break free from old patterns, reconnect with their true selves, and embody lasting transformation.
My work merges science, psychology, somatics, and soul
Integrating trauma-informed breathwork, hypnotherapy, somatic reparenting, and Jungian coaching to create deep, holistic change.
But this isn’t just about learning techniques—it’s about experiencing transformation firsthand. Whether you’re here for personal healing, professional expansion, or both, my approach is designed to help you embody your most authentic, empowered self.
I created the Soul of the Lotus® pillars to expand beyond traditional therapy into a deeper, more embodied approach to healing and transformation. This work goes beyond surface-level change—it rewires the nervous system, releases subconscious blocks, and restores mind-body-soul alignment, guiding you toward lasting, embodied evolution.
This journey is more than a practice—it’s a path to deep healing, integration, and true transformation. I’m honored to walk it with you.
My Approach: Where Science Meets Soul
Healing isn’t linear—it’s messy, cyclical, and deeply personal. It’s not about fixing yourself—it’s about unraveling what isn’t yours, reclaiming your truth, and reawakening your innate wisdom.
I bridge psychology, neuroscience, and somatics with the depth of breathwork, hypnotherapy, and soul-centered transformation, ensuring that healing isn’t just something you understand—it’s something you embody.
This work is trauma-informed, nervous system-rooted, and integrative. Whether through somatic therapy, subconscious reprogramming, or breathwork, we move beyond surface-level change into lasting, embodied transformation.
Because true healing isn’t about just knowing—it’s about becoming.
My Work Integrates:
Somatic Healing & Nervous System Regulation – Because transformation starts in the body, not just the mind.
Trauma-Informed Breathwork & Hypnotherapy – To access the subconscious, release stored trauma, and reconnect with your deepest self.
Psychology & Neuroscience – To rewire limiting beliefs and create lasting, embodied shifts.
Spiritual Embodiment & Energetic Alignment – To return to your truth, intuition, and purpose.
This isn’t just healing—it’s activation. A call to step fully into your power, unburdened by the past, aligned with your purpose, and free to evolve into your most authentic, embodied self.

About Caroline
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Master Jungian Life Coach, Certified Trauma-Informed Breathwork Facilitator, Certified Hypno-Breathwork and Hypnotherapy Facilitator, and Certified TRE Provider, I specialize in guiding individuals through a holistic journey of inner healing, self-discovery, and personal transformation.
I believe healing is an interconnected process that involves the mind, body, and soul. With this understanding, I support you in breaking free from limiting patterns, tapping into your inner wisdom, and creating a life that aligns with your authentic desires and purpose.
Drawing from a diverse range of therapeutic modalities, coaching techniques, and the transformative power of breathwork, I provide a comprehensive, integrative approach to healing and growth. My mission is to empower you to reconnect with your true self and cultivate lasting change in every aspect of your life.
A Holistic Approach to Healing
While I deeply value the power of talk therapy, I’ve also come to recognize that some wounds reside beyond words, stored deep within the body. This is where somatic practices like Breathwork and TRE® (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) play a pivotal role—helping to release trauma and emotional blockages in ways that traditional therapy alone may not reach.
My personal journey with breathwork profoundly transformed my understanding of healing. From my very first session, I felt its undeniable power resonate through every cell of my being. That experience set me on a path of awakening, healing, and self-discovery, and today, I’m dedicated to guiding others through their own journey—using the breath as a bridge to deeper healing.
By integrating somatic techniques with psychotherapy, we can address both the mental and physical aspects of trauma together. This holistic process reprograms the nervous system, releases limiting beliefs, and clears emotional blockages, allowing you to step into a space of expansion, authenticity, and empowerment.
Guiding Individuals & Families Through Life Transitions
Through both my personal experiences and professional expertise, I’ve developed a specialized focus on supporting children and teens navigating their parents' divorce or separation. Having walked this path myself and worked with families for over a decade, I intimately understand the complex emotions and challenges involved at every stage of development.
Beyond working with youth, I also support college students, adults, and parents as they navigate life’s transitions—whether facing a major life shift, seeking deeper healing, or striving for more balance and alignment. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing space where individuals and families can heal, grow, and rediscover their inner strength.
I invite you to embark on your own healing journey—to release what no longer serves you and awaken your soul. Together, we will uncover the wisdom within and reconnect you with your authentic, empowered self.
The ocean is my sanctuary…
a place where I reconnect, recharge, rejuvenate, and find inner peace.
Finding Balance & Nourishing the Soul
One of my most soulful self-care rituals is returning to Maui and the Hawaiian Islands each year—a sacred space that has held deep meaning for me ever since I planted my roots on Maui in my 20s. The islands, with their Aloha spirit and healing energy, are where my soul feels most alive.
After years of traveling and living in different places, I eventually made Oregon my home. The Oregon coast and the Hawaiian Islands—though vastly different—both hold a majestic, transformative energy that continues to inspire and ground me.
I encourage my clients to find a place or practice that deeply nourishes their soul and to return to it often—physically, mentally, or energetically. Reconnecting with what feeds your soul is essential for maintaining balance, resilience, and inner peace.
Spontaneous adventures, travel, and exploring new places with my partner, our two wild and free, compassionate and courageous boys, our beloved pup, and dear friends bring me immense joy. We cherish our mental health days, stepping away from the daily grind to recharge and simply be together.
If you haven’t yet woven mental health days into your routine, I encourage you to start now. Whether you’re a child, teen, parent, or professional, taking intentional time for yourself is an investment in your well-being.
For me, finding the balance between supporting others and caring for myself is an ongoing journey—one of flow, growth, and self-discovery. As many of us know, self-care isn’t always easy, especially for those in helping professions. But to show up fully present for others, we must first nourish ourselves.
I am always learning, evolving, and expanding my own self-care practices, ensuring that I can continue guiding others in finding their own inner harmony.
Why Soul of the Lotus
The lotus flower begins its growth from its roots deep in the mud and murky waters of the earth, far away from the sun. With perseverance, the lotus continues to rise up through the mud and the muck, emerges from the water, rises up to the light of the sun, and blossoms into the world.
The lotus offers hope and strength to those struggling in their daily lives. It shows us that we too, as humans, can rise up from the “mud” in our own lives, overcome difficulties, and connect to the light that radiates within us.
As living beings, I view humans in the same light as the lotus and work from this framework with my clients. I offer my clients a safe space to explore their uniqueness as they begin and continue their process of growth. By being present with my clients, I support them as they navigate and pave their way through the hardships and struggles they are encountering.
Using one’s own innate healing wisdom, we are able to to release, heal, grow, and transform. We are able to root into our inner self, heal from the inside out, align with our highest self, and transform into who we are meant to be in this lifetime. This process allows the discovery of inner strength, self-love, and the emergence into one’s true, authentic self.
Therapeutic Background ::
I hold a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology from Lewis & Clark Graduate School, with a specialized focus on working with children, adolescents, and adults. Throughout my career, I have supported individuals across diverse backgrounds, using both individual and group counseling modalities to help clients navigate a wide range of emotional and life challenges.
My experience includes working with individuals who have faced divorce, anxiety, trauma, grief, loss, depression, domestic violence, and struggles with self-esteem and self-worth. I’ve had the privilege of guiding children, teens, and adults through deep emotional healing, helping them process their experiences and reclaim a sense of inner strength.
In addition to private practice, I have worked in shelter and residential treatment facilities supporting children and adolescents with severe emotional and behavioral challenges. I’ve also helped teens recovering from substance abuse in outpatient treatment settings and provided care for adult women in inpatient chemical dependency programs, guiding them toward recovery and self-empowerment.
These experiences have given me a profound understanding of the complex emotional landscapes individuals navigate and the resilience that emerges through the healing process. My approach is rooted in compassion, trauma-informed care, and a deep commitment to supporting each person’s unique journey toward growth and transformation.
Therapeutic Approach ::
My approach to therapy is holistic, compassionate, and interactive—offering a safe, supportive space for deep healing and growth. I believe every individual holds the innate capacity to heal, though at times, we all need guidance, reflection, and a nurturing environment to process where we are and where we want to go. My style is warm, engaging, and collaborative, often infused with a touch of humor to bring lightness to the process when needed.
Life’s transitions and challenges can feel overwhelming at any stage. Whether you're an adult navigating a major life shift or a young person struggling to express complex emotions, therapy can be a powerful space for healing and self-discovery. I work with individuals and families, helping them process unexpected changes, regulate emotions, and develop tools for resilience. For children and adolescents, in particular, emotional struggles may manifest as shutting down, acting out, or internalizing distress—my role is to help them feel seen, heard, and supported in finding healthy ways to navigate their experiences.
I believe that every person deserves to feel accepted, valued, and safe. My goal is for each client to experience a deep sense of belonging and understanding throughout our work together.
My practice is rooted in an anti-oppressive, social justice framework, honoring the diverse identities, backgrounds, and lived experiences of those I serve. I am committed to continuous learning and growth in my own anti-oppression work to ensure therapy remains an inclusive and affirming space for all.
Coaching Approach ::
Throughout my journey as a therapist, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing clients navigate profound challenges, break through emotional barriers, and evolve into more empowered, authentic versions of themselves. This transformative process has deepened my passion for guiding others—not only through therapy but also through coaching and breathwork as powerful tools for self-discovery, growth, and lasting change.
While therapy is the foundation of my work, coaching offers a unique space for forward-focused transformation. Whether you’re a parent seeking balance in the ebb and flow of life, a professional navigating career transitions, or someone yearning for deeper alignment with your purpose, coaching provides the structure, clarity, and accountability to help you step into your next chapter with intention and confidence.
Our coaching journey is both introspective and action-oriented. Together, we identify the subconscious patterns holding you back, rewire limiting beliefs, and cultivate the mindset, strategies, and soul-aligned action steps that will propel you forward. Coaching is about more than achieving external goals—it’s about reclaiming your inner power, embracing your full potential, and navigating life with resilience, authenticity, and purpose.
Empowered Transformation
Throughout my work, I’ve had the honor of guiding clients through some of life’s most profound transitions—breaking free from intergenerational cycles and inherited relational patterns, navigating major career shifts, uncovering their authentic selves and life’s purpose, overcoming imposter syndrome and limiting beliefs, and stepping boldly into new chapters. Whether it’s launching a private practice, moving through relationship changes like separation or divorce, welcoming a new baby, or redefining personal and professional aspirations, I am here to help you navigate these pivotal moments with clarity and confidence.
In a coaching setting, I integrate a diverse range of modalities, allowing me to approach your journey from multiple perspectives. This dynamic, holistic approach empowers you to break through limitations that may have once felt insurmountable, shifting from a place of uncertainty to one of deep trust, resilience, and aligned action.
Are you ready to step beyond your comfort zone and into the life you’ve always envisioned? I believe you are—and I’m here to guide you in unlocking your inner power, embodying your evolution, and creating a life that resonates with your highest self.
