Why I Do This Work – My Story
My journey into this field wasn’t just academic—it was personal.
At just six years old, my world turned upside down when my parents separated.
I struggled with persistent stress, poor self esteem, resulting in people pleasing and difficulty relaxing.
As I became an adult, I began searching for solutions, determined to reclaim my sense of peace and confidence.
My Turning Point
One of the pivotal answers came through therapy, which improved my self-image into one of confidence and peace.
Effective therapy and skills coaching were the tools I needed to heal, grow, and thrive.
Today, I’m helping others relax, build confidence in self and grow.
