My Story
My life changed when the word “trauma” came into my life.
After years dealing with health conditions such as arthritis, polycystic ovary syndrome, UTIs, binge eating, digestion issues, depression and a huge list of other symptoms, and after many more looking for solutions and only finding a mere direction, the word trauma made everything clear to me.
I understood that the state of my health was a consequence of years of repressed emotions in my body and spirit, the result of violence, emotional and physical neglect suffered growing up. All the signs took me to same conclusion - unresolved trauma.
Then, Somatic Experiencing (SE) entered into my life giving me a difference perspective of healing.
SE showed me that the journey of resolving trauma did not have to envolve catharsis, talking over and over again about the pain which could lead me into re-traumatisation and days or even weeks to recover from it. It showed me that this journey can be soft, slow. SE showed me that healing can respect the limits and capacity of my own body.
I understood that SE was not only therapy, it was a way to educate myself about my body, my nervous system, my resources, trauma and other people’s body. It gave me tools that helped me immensely to understand the world within and outside of me.
Somatic Experiencing gave me all the answers I needed and ultimately helped me feel safer in my skin in a way I have never felt.
I have studied Trauma extensively for the last years from masters like Gabor Maté and Peter A. Levine to be able to acquire the skills and knowledge to share this journey with the world in the best way I can.
And I want to take you with me.
My mission is to guide you on the journey of reconnection with your own body, through nervous system regulation and trauma renegotiation, so you can finally feel free to live your dream life!
Today I offer 1:1 sessions, self-regulation workshops and other tools to show you that the body is magical, and it is possible to feel safer in your skin, no matter how hard your past and present was and is.
Shall we? 🌹
