After more than ten years in active addiction, my body gave out. Liver failure. Kidney failure. Brain swelling. The damage to my nervous system was so severe that I lost the ability to walk for six months. And then, in the midst of finding my way back, I experienced a major manic episode that led to thirteen weeks of hospitalization — another loss of identity, another layer of shame to work through.

The road back to myself was not quick or linear. It was humbling and at times, incredibly painful. But it was also the most profound journey of my life.

Every single tool I use with clients today — somatic therapy, holotropic breathwork, yoga, empowerment and mindset work— is something that helped me heal. Although I am a lifelong learner with numerous certifications, I didn't just find this work in a textbook. I found it in my own body, my own recovery, my own slow and steady return to wholeness.

Four and a half years into recovery, I can tell you that staying sober was just the beginning. The real work — the beautiful, expansive work — is learning to feel safe in your own skin again. To understand yourself. To love yourself. To give your body, mind and soul what they actually need. To feel empowered in your decisions and at home in who you are.

That is what coming home to yourself means to me. And it is what I am here to help you do.
