Hi, I’m Ana and I’m an herbalist and recovery coach who helps folks address their relationship with alcohol and connect to their herbal allies. I work with creative, compassionate, dreamers whose ambitions and lives are big. Are you: an artist, musician, activist, healthcare worker, teacher or food industry worker? Then you know firsthand how normalized, and even glorified, heavy drinking is in these circles. 

​

Growing up I was surrounded by artists and musicians who struggled to find the congruency between the myth that alcohol is a magical creativity and social elixir, and the reality that it was ruining their health and masking their truth. And I get it–I spent years working and drinking as server in NYC, trying to moderate so booze could stay in my life!

 

The problem is, trying to thrive in a culture of pervasive drinking you often feel trapped, lonely, or jealous. You want to feel inspired, but you end the night agitated and scrolling.

 

You don’t play it safe–you dream passionately, but perfectionism often stops you in your tracks.You want to use your talents and voice for good, but with your intuition blocked by alcohol use, it is hard to see your visions and a path toward collective liberation. You want to show up for your calling and begin or deepen your social justice work, but you haven’t learned to sit with discomfort without the fleeting salve of booze.

 

Maybe you’ve even taken a few months off from drinking and felt the benefits of an alcohol-free life, but you weren’t sure how to make it stick. Are you ready to spiral up and invest in your own evolution?

 

Together we can infuse your daily life with simple tools to help you steer your own boat, creating a life you're ecstatic to be present for. With Sober Spirals Holistic Sobriety Coaching, I will help you address your underlying physiology and patterns with an herbalist’s approach to healing. Using plants, ritual, practices, and habit formation knowledge I will support you daily in your sobriety journey.

 

When I finally recognized the dissonance between the myth and the reality, I removed alcohol from my life for good. This allowed me to learn new ways to regulate my nervous system and step into my full power. I’ve found more growth, more love, more creativity, and more joy on the other side of the decision not to drink–and so can you.
