I am a deeply curious, highly sensitive human who has always felt a little out of place. I come to this work from my own journey healing from complex PTSD. This means that I know what it’s like to be misdiagnosed over and over again. I know what it’s like to not feel safe in your own body. I know what it’s like to have no idea who the heck you are. And I know what it’s like to seek out treatment after treatment and feel like nobody understands, and nothing helps. I know what it’s like to lose hope that a better life is even possible.

Complex trauma affects more than just our mental health—it’s a disruption in the nervous system. It often keeps us stuck in a heightened state of survival, where fear, shame, and self-protection take over, leaving us disconnected from our bodies, our sense of self, and the present moment. The path to healing isn’t about returning to a pre-existing identity, but about building a new foundation from within. The journey is not straightforward or swift, but it is indeed possible with safe and attuned support and guidance, and a willingness to do the work.

Healing from trauma involves more than just addressing thoughts and emotions. It’s about restoring balance to the nervous system, reconnecting with the body, integrating fragmented parts of ourselves, and letting go of fear. This process helps us return to a state of wholeness and alignment with our true essence.

As I healed and began to come home to myself, it became crystal clear to me that my purpose was to do whatever I needed to do in order to be able to go back into the darkness and help others find their way out too.

I believe every single one of us has a very important purpose on this earth, and I want to help you transmute your pain into power so that you are able to evolve into who you came here to be.
