My Story

My grandparents, though gone too soon, gave me seven joyful years that laid the foundation for how I love and relate to others. Despite the beauty of my surroundings, my early life held unspoken pain. I was born via C-section and separated from my mother for two weeks, which interrupted the essential bonding we all need to feel safe in the world. Emotional neglect and a sense of isolation shaped my childhood, and by adolescence, I felt lost and deeply alone.

 

In my twenties, I left my home country in search of a fresh start. I landed in London in 2005 and slowly began the process of building a life — though the sense of inner safety remained elusive. Relationships were often painful, and underneath it all, I was still chasing love and belonging in ways that didn’t serve me.

 

Traditional therapy helped in parts, but something still felt missing. Over time, I was drawn to practices that helped me reconnect with myself on a deeper level. Reiki and sound healing offered gentle entry points. Ancient wisdom traditions, meditation, and somatic therapies guided me into the language of my body — where the real healing began.

A pivotal turning point came during a plant medicine retreat, where I finally met the part of myself I had long disowned — the one who never felt good enough. In that moment, I understood how my early adaptations had helped me survive, but were no longer needed to thrive. Around that time, I also discovered I have ADHD, which brought even more clarity and compassion to my journey.

What’s emerged since is not a story of being “fixed,” but of deep reclamation — of softness, strength, and joy.

“The Self-Discovery Journey,” the approach I now offer, is grounded in my lived experience and enriched by over 250 hours of clinically-informed training in somatic and psychotherapeutic modalities.
