Dominique’s Official Bio

Dominique is a Self-Marriage Minister and Counselor. Her purpose in life is to help hold a space within and for all to drop into our true nature of being, to love ourselves more fully, and to experience the true intimacy of the divine in order to create a world where we live, serve, and embody love.

Dominique has dedicated her life to the pursuit and study of love as a force for global, social, and personal change. She holds a B.A. from Stanford University in Cultural & Social Anthropology, with a focus in Love, Ritual, and Religion.

In 2010, Dominique took a 6-month solo-pilgrimage across India to connect more deeply with her own self-love. Immersed in Indian culture, she learned how to truly listen, how to slow down and be grateful for the simple fact of being alive. She realized the power of commitment to a force greater than, yet within herself whether named God, love, truth, or justice. She witnessed the way love affects the human heart across the span of a culture, generation, and a single life.

Every day, Dominique works to deepen her practice of self-love as a way to live by example, be the change she wishes to see in the world, and practice what she preaches. As a result, the practices she shares in her Self-Marriage sessions are ones she has tested and benefited from herself. Her own commitment to Self-Marriage has helped her heal tremendously from the obstacles, traumas, and heartbreaks in her own life. Though she has been practicing self-love for many years, Dominique officially first took her vows of Self-Marriage on her birthday in 2011, in a private ceremony on a farm in Sebastopol, CA.

If anything were possible, Dominique would choose to spend her days in service, helping people authentically and practically love themselves and the real challenges of their lives in an embodied way as the foundation for creating a better world, using her wise and motherly nature to help reduce the suffering of collective existence, one heart at a time.

Dominique currently lives a humble, beautiful, and love-filled life in the Northern California Sierras. It would be her deepest joy to meet and work with you.
