Who I Am

I’m an essential part of your care team, providing personalized cold cap therapy, coaching, and holistic support to help you navigate chemotherapy with confidence. I offer physical, emotional, and nutritional guidance tailored to your needs, and I’m welcomed at infusion centers including Sutter Oncology (Auburn, Roseville, Sacramento, Davis), UC Davis, and Kaiser facilities. If your location isn’t listed, please reach out — I’m not limited to these sites. I also have trusted local support available on days I’m fully booked.

I worked with Penguin Cold Caps for a year and a half starting in 2019, supporting patients across San Francisco, Oakland, San Ramon, Marin, Santa Rosa, and surrounding areas. In late 2020, I founded Ice Ladies to bring that same level of care closer to home. While I am not affiliated with Penguin Cold Caps, my background with them — combined with the extensive hands‑on experience I’ve gained independently over the years — informs the expertise I bring to every client.

My Approach

I take a practical, holistic approach to health and wellness — one that puts the individual first and focuses on root causes rather than restrictive diets or one‑size‑fits‑all plans. True health is about more than what’s on your plate. It’s about sustainable habits, balanced nutrition, movement, and emotional resilience, especially when your body is working hard through treatment.

Restrictive diets are difficult to maintain and often don’t reflect what current research shows about nutrition and cancer prevention. Instead, I help you build realistic routines that support strength, stability, and healing. Everything is tailored to where you are right now, not pulled from a generic template.

Your Choice Matters

You have the right to choose your preferred cold‑capping provider. You are not required to work with representatives from the cap rental company, and anyone can cap for you — a trained professional, a caregiver, or someone close to you. What matters most is selecting someone you trust and feel comfortable with throughout the process.

Whether you’d like coaching for a caregiver, prefer full capping support from me, or simply want information and resources, I’m here to help.

Insurance & Reimbursement

Coverage for equipment rental and scalp‑cooling services varies widely. I encourage you to check with your insurance provider to see whether reimbursement may be available. While some clients receive partial reimbursement, it is not guaranteed.

Supporting Your Healing Journey

A life‑changing diagnosis affects every part of your world. My goal is to help you slow down, breathe, and care for both your mind and body during this time. I’m here to ease some of the overwhelm so you can focus on healing.

I aim to help you feel better so that you can heal better.
