My Story

Skylar grew up in Massachusetts and has recently moved to the West Coast. She loves reading, spending time in the ocean, and cuddling her two cats. As someone new to Santa Barbara, she is excited to explore all the nature that the California coast offers her and has been soaking up the sunshine by the beach in her free time. Skylar brings her adventurousness and appreciation for the small things in life into the therapy room, creating a warm and empowering atmosphere.
