My Story:
How Holistika Embodiment Began
The Beginning
My journey began years ago as a therapist in community-based mental health, where I faced chronic stress that manifested as:
Overwhelming fatigue
Constant prioritization of others
An inability to care for myself
Despite my struggles, I pressed on, relying on techniques that provided only temporary relief (including talk therapy) — only to find myself back in the grips of stress and fatigue time and time again.
Turning Point
Just when I thought I was getting a handle on things, my world was turned upside down by multiple losses that left me stuck in grief and burnout.
A New Path
It was through the lessons of grief and a documentary on holistic healing that my desire to learn about natural healing through body, mind, and spiritual modalities was ignited. Specifically, Somatic Experiencing provided me with a deeper understanding of:
Trauma
Stress
Nervous system healing
This knowledge gave me a second chance at life.
Transformation
When I shifted my focus to healing the nervous system — both in myself and my clients — everything changed. Today, my clients experience:
Lasting relief
Renewed confidence
Increased energy
Joyful relationships
They no longer have to rely on ineffective tools or endure chronic dysregulation of their nervous systems.
