Meet Dr. Brad

Director of Wellness Services

Warm greetings and a welcoming embrace from the San Jacinto Mountains in the sunny Sonoran desert. Deserts and mountains are potent places revered for their healing powers. I was called to this sacred place to establish a wellness center. So here I am, living large in my tiny home named Santosha in Desert Hot Springs. Woohoo!

My intention here is to create a place for you all to heal and grow. As a wellness services provider, I dip into a deep well of 45+ years of inspiring experience and formal academic education in the fields of western psychology, eastern philosophy, yoga, feng shui, grounded spirituality, nature-based healing practices, and much more. Yes, I have many degrees and certifications, but more importantly, I care about you.

 

In that spirit, I've assembled a collective of wellness service providers to attend to your wellness needs. Together, we have over 150 years of experience in our fields. If you'd like to know more about any of us or have questions, please email us and we'll set up a free curiosity call. Please let us know what you're curious about learning and we'll explore that frontier together. May mountain mojo and desert delight be with you.
