Holistic Psychotherapy

My Story:

How Holistika Embodiment Began

My journey began years ago as a therapist in community-based mental health, where I faced chronic stress that manifested as: overwhelming fatigue and putting others first.

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.
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.


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.

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.

Master your stress with ease by becoming your own healer.
