Dakota Quackenbush |

Dakota Quackenbush is the founder of Authentic Bay Area. She is a coach and group facilitator who cares about making you feel seen and heard. Her professional background and extensive training for the last 10+ years is in addiction, mental health, trauma, interpersonal dynamics, social health, mindset reprogramming, and human potential. She largely facilitates authentic relating, circling, and t-groups. Her focus is reducing the stigma surrounding mental health and making authentic, vulnerable connections the norm. She regularly closes her eyes to connect to her emotions and physical sensations. When she’s not facilitating connection, she can be found writing poetry or dancing any time a beat comes on.
