Reconnecting After the Cocoon: A Journey of Transformation
Welcome to My Space of Healing, Self-Discovery, and Transformation
It’s been a while since I’ve written here, and so much has shifted in my life and work over the past few years. I’m excited to reintroduce myself and share how my journey has evolved—and how it might inspire or support yours.
To those who’ve followed along for a while, thank you. Your trust and presence mean the world to me. And to anyone who’s newer here, welcome! I’m so grateful you’ve found this space. I’d love to share more about what guides me, what fuels my passion, and how I can support you on your own path of inner healing and transformation.
Emerging from the cocoon is a delicate yet empowering process—one that requires patience, self-compassion, and an openness to what unfolds. For me, this journey has been one of rediscovery—stepping back into a space of authenticity and healing, and reconnecting with the parts of myself that were tucked away in the stillness. Like the caterpillar turning into a butterfly, transformation doesn’t happen overnight, but with each breath, each release, and each step, we shed what no longer serves us and make space for the new.
The lotus blooms from the mud—a powerful symbol of transformation that resonates deeply with my journey and work. Just as the lotus emerges untainted from murky depths, we too can rise from our struggles and emerge into our fullest selves. Though the process may not always be clean or straightforward, it’s in life’s messiest moments that the deepest healing and growth happen. Each step forward is like the opening of a petal, shedding old layers and embracing the light.
A Journey of Healing That Led Me Here
If I look back to the beginning, my journey started with a deep calling to help others. I didn’t know it at the time, but that calling would lead me on a transformative path of growth and evolution, not just in my work but also in my own healing.
Becoming a therapist felt like a natural step—a way to hold space for people navigating the highs and lows of life. But as I continued this work, I began to sense there was more to explore, more ways I could guide people toward healing and wholeness. I wanted to go beyond traditional therapy, to dive deeper into the emotional, spiritual, and somatic layers that influence our lives.
That desire to expand led me to shadow work, where I trained through the CreativeMind Jungian Life Coaching program. This experience profoundly shifted my perspective. It gave me the tools to guide clients in uncovering hidden parts of themselves—often the very parts that hold the keys to self-acceptance and freedom. The transformation I witnessed, both in myself and in my clients, was remarkable and planted the seeds for what would come next.
Eventually, I discovered the power of Trauma-Informed Breathwork. From my very first experience, it felt like I had found a missing piece—not just for my own healing but for the work I wanted to offer. Through training with Pause Breathwork, I learned how breath could be a bridge between the mind, body, and spirit, allowing us to access and release emotions that might otherwise stay trapped within.
But I wasn’t finished yet. To deepen this work even further, I pursued certification through the Go Within Institute in Hypno-Breathwork and Hypnotherapy. This journey brought me face-to-face with the profound power of inner child work and emotional release. It was a deeply personal process that helped me heal old wounds, while also equipping me with invaluable tools to help others do the same.
Today, my work is an integration of everything I’ve learned along the way: counseling, breathwork, hypnotherapy, somatic healing, coaching, shadow work, and TRE. Each modality has shaped how I approach healing, and together they form a holistic framework that allows me to guide clients toward deep, lasting transformation.
Looking Ahead
This reintroduction is just the beginning. I’m excited to use this blog to share more about the healing modalities I offer, tips for navigating life’s transitions, and insights into the transformative power of retreats and holistic practices. Whether you’re here for inspiration, tools for your journey, or just a sense of connection, I hope this space becomes one of discovery and growth for you.
Thank you for being here, and I can’t wait to share more with you soon!
