Hi! I’m Dani, owner of The Holistic Skin Studio.

After exploring various careers that didn't resonate with me, I decided to pursue my passion and obtained my aesthetics license in 2014. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working in some incredible spas. However, I have often felt disconnected from the beauty industry, and I've been part of it for quite some time.

I believe that "beauty" should not be the standard for our goals. Beauty is an innate part of being human and not something we need to aspire to. My purpose in opening a skincare studio is not to help you meet rigid Western beauty standards, but to create a space that promotes skin health through self-compassion. I am trauma-informed and certified in skincare nutrition and breathwork. Since my diagnosis with a chronic pain disorder in 2015, I have studied various aspects of holistic health. I have learned that true healing comes from considering the whole person, and the same applies to our skin.

If your skin is behaving in a way that concerns you, my goal is to identify the root cause to ensure long lasting results. The Holistic Skin Studio is a queer-owned skincare studio that celebrates all gender identities, sexualities, body shapes, sizes, and races. It is a safe space where your skin is already beautiful, regardless of its type or condition. No matter who you are, you are welcome to be yourself here.
