My Story
The Wound is the Gift
Growing up as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) in a home with abuse and neglect, I suffered chronic depression, anxiety, and debilitating self-loathing for most of my life.
In my quest for relief, I first turned to eastern mystical traditions in my early adulthood. To this day, I still practice meditation and yoga, which helped me immensely.
However, while these practices made huge impacts on me, I still struggled with poor mental health and failed relationships throughout my 20’s and 30’s. It was painful to feel chronically disempowered and frustrated.
My quest for answers next lead me to learn, and eventually facilitate both Nonviolent Communication and Authentic Relating. Teaching conscious relationship skills became a passion of mine, and I’ve held events in these modalities since 2017.
In 2019, I also took these skills into working with SeekHealing — a local non-profit that provides trauma-informed educational experiences to foster genuine human connection.
Healing On All the Levels
Yet despite having better relationships with others, my depression and anxiety still plagued me.
It wasn’t until NIASZIIH Healing & Bodywork came into my life that I found the answers I was looking for. In 2019, I enrolled in wildernessFusion, a healing school based in Lipan Apache philosophy and spirituality.
Through wildernessFusion, I’ve learned how to become the “Vessel of Healing” — to effectively transform from the inside-out, and help others do the same. Now my life is rich with the kind of self-love and personal empowerment that I always dreamed of. And I aim to kindle that kind of self-connection in clients as well.
