The people who I work with are a reflection of me, in that the mental health challenges they're going through in general are what I struggled with as a young person and into adulthood. It was my own healing journey and the pains of my childhood growing up with an alcoholic father and mother addicted to hoarding and both of them being at each others' throats constantly and blaming each other and then projecting that onto me where I grew up feeling like the reason home was the way it was, was my fault, just left me desperate for answers.

 

I was riddled with confusion, anxiety, depression, self-hatred, fear, doubt, and just a deep sense of despair, but there was this little spark and voice and ember that kept pushing me on, and then fast forward 18 years of insanely hard healing work, I can now say that I've healed through it all in a lasting way (inclusive of the dynamic with my parents, with my father now sober and both of them doing coaching work with one of my teachers from the C.H.E.K Institute).

 

I was where my clients come to me at, and I have lived through everything that I share with them. Aside from just living it, I've been part of the C.H.E.K Institute for 5 years now professionally training and working, and have been studying Paul Chek's work for over 12 years now, so what I have to share is a combination of my own lived experience of being fully in the thick of unresolved trauma patterns, but now with professional training and coaching which has allowed me to streamline my experience into methods and structures that I can guide my clients through and help them heal through this stuff in a lasting way just how I did. I know how impossible and hopeless is can seem in the moment, but once you understand how this all works, you realise that hope never actually went anywhere and this stuff can be healed in a lasting way even if in the moment it seems utterly impossible. That's what I offer, myself as the living proof that it's absolutely possible.

​

​

So having experienced my own crisis period and successfully going through my own trauma healing journey, this holistic approach to healing unresolved trauma and community is the product of all that I've learned during that 16 year journey, combined with what I've studied and put into practice professionally as a C.H.E.K. Institute Holistic Health Practitioner.

​

With a holistic and integral approach, healing trauma that often seems 'impossible', becomes possible to heal. Once you know where 'the wires' are supposed to be, you can see which ones are out of place and re-align them.

It takes awareness, knowledge, and consistent practical application, but that is the principle essentially. There is ALWAYS hope!
