About Me
My healing journey began 12 years ago. I had an abusive boyfriend, abused substances, grew up in a turbulent household, had suicidal thoughts and attempts, I suffered from soul loss, felt extremely depressed, grieved deeply from the loss of close family members and eventually developed a severe eating disorder called bulimia nervosa. At the pinnacle of my eating disorder; it literally took over my life. I knew I needed help. I could no longer live this way.
So, experiencing a lot of shame, I went to my family doctor and told her what was going on for me. She connected me to a team of specialists including a psychologist and nutritionist to help me start to heal from my eating disorder. Slowly, my life began to shift. I learnt what my triggers were and what helped curbed the urge to binge eat and purge. This was the beginning of my healing journey.
Removing myself from my home environment were initially remedies to my healing process. When I arrived in Thailand for 3 months; I felt deeply scared and alone yet strangely at home. There I learnt and began to experiment with many different holistic healing modalities; yoga, meditation, ceremony, journalling, dance, steaming, colonics, counselling, plant spirit medicine and juice fasting. I started to loosen my dreadful past more and more. I continued travelling and remaining curious to finding guides to show me the way few of whom were psychotherapists, yogis and gifted healers.
After much travelling, I decided it was time to put my life lessons to work and share it with others. I started going to University to study Psychology. Along the way, I continued on my path in working with yoga, meditation, earth-centric spirituality, and visionary plant medicine ceremony as a means to cultivate a deep sense of connection to myself. I have continuously been learning the scientific and more mystical forms of healing. Striving committed to this path, is what has led me to becoming a transpersonal counselling therapist which allows me to blend my spiritual awareness and practices with the practicalities of life. I am now a Mother, Wife, daughter, community enthusiast and dear friend. And is ever passionately striving and learning on this path of healing arts.
