I grew up in a family, like many, where emotional intellegence was foreign and not talking about tough, real, and raw feelings was instead, the norm. So, I spent most of my life hiding my emotions. This left me searching for any sort of connection in my younger years, putting me on a fast track to drug abuse, in turn leading to situations where abuse was an easy trap to fall into.

I Started my family young and loved being a mom to my three beautiful children, but I was in deep and lost what little connection I had to myself. I realized I had never really spent time figuring out who I was in the first place. I couldn’t help but to feel that there had to be more than what I was experiencing.

The doors opened once I began therapy as this chapter led me into experiencing deeper holistic modalities such as EMDR, DBT, and Hypnotherapy.

Over the last decade, I have learned sooooo much about myself and the family system I had been experiencing for the past 40 years. I was finally able to SEE and FEEL how abuse and neglect was impacting my day to day life, my relationships, and most importantly, the lacking relationship I had with myself.

As Is continued my holistic healing and awakening journey, I started stepping into somatic therapies and shamanic healing which helped me to actually FEEL my emotions instead of talking in loops and trying to outthink discomfort.  These years were long. The rollercoaster of emotional integration included shamanic healing, tribal medicine modalities, energy healing, new spiritual connections, psychedelic medicines and deep deep shadow work. And, I continue to explore and discover these authentic spaces of emotional intelligence. 

The most vital part of life begins when we learn that we are meant to feel it all, and trust that it will all be OK!!

Thank you for getting to know me. I truly look forward to meeting you.

Love,
