Somatic Practitioner & Self Trust Coach. But more importantly, I’m a human who loves her life. But it hasn’t always been that way.

For years I didn’t feel safe in my body, I didn’t trust myself. I heard it from teachers, bosses, mentors, “Just trust yourself.” Looking back I had no idea just how much my lack of self trust was truly costing me. 

Notes I could easily sing in private? I’d bomb during auditions. Relationships that were going well? I self sabotaged. Career growth? Too anxious for it. 

 There was a time when I didn’t even trust the words that came out of my mouth. I stopped trusting my own reality, and became hyper vigilant of every word I said, every  facial expression I made, every breath I took. 

On the outside, I was holding it together. Underneath, I was barely surviving. Talk therapy wasn’t working. Medication wasn’t working. I was at a loss. But then I discovered somatics. That alone shifted the reality that I was living in.

Through somatic work, I developed a deep relationship and awareness of my body. I learned to work with it instead of against it. I listened to it. I gave it what it needed.

And from there I was able to release the energy that kept me anxious and self sabotaging. I closed the loop on the paranoia and intrusive thoughts. And instead gave my body a new experience.  Mindset work is powerful, but if there’s one thing my somatic journey taught me, it’s that the body informs the mind. The mind informs your behavior. And your behavior informs the life you lead. In helping my body feel safe, my thoughts stopped looping. And when the thoughts stopped looping I was able to respond more calmly. And when I responded more calmly, my life was less chaotic.

What started as my personal healing journey turned into my life purpose. Somatics didn't just heal my anxiety, it changed my outlook on life. It changed who I was being, and how I allowed myself to be treated. It shifted my identity and instilled the self trust to walk away from the things that were hurting me. My career, my social circles, places that were once sacred to me. I left with clarity. Because leaving wasn’t an act of self preservation, it was an act of self trust. And for the first time I believed there was a whole world that I could thrive in. So I took a leap of faith and left my old life behind. Because if somatics could restore my entire sense of self, it was worth studying more deeply. It was worth sharing with others.

So I pursued formal education and certification, studying the mind-body connection, neuroscience, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Light Leader Kundalini™, and Somatic Experiencing. I became deeply trained in the language of the body: how it stores stress, how it responds to stimuli, and how to navigate various nervous system patterns.

Today, I blend Traditional Chinese Medicine and body based practices with Somatic Experiencing to help clients find safety in their body, so they can stop looping in fear and start living with authenticity.

Because healing isn't about becoming someone new. It's about embracing all parts of yourself. It’s about trusting yourself.
