Hello beautiful Soul

I could go on about all of the certifications I have, but really at the end of the day - it was my trauma that had me in an endless loop of education. The struggle on my journey was not a lack of knowledge, understanding or capability in my life, but a lack of self-worth. The fear and terror that would arise in me when it was time to practice on clients or market myself. The constant avoidance of connection and endless hours self-isolating to avoid "having to people" or engage in social situations. The over extending of my energy for everyone else around me, yet neglecting my own mind, body and soul. Forfeiting my opinions, voice, wants and desires. The deep seated fear of people and the shame I felt towards the real me, as I have always felt different. I started to think there was something wrong with me, that I was broken or that I just wasn't meant to have the life and service that my heart so desired. It wasn't until I found somatic breathwork and ultimately, Spinal Energetics that everything changed.

I had so many negative experiences throughout my life with others, with myself and in my childhood. My wounds were invisible to everyone, and yet I felt like I was constantly carrying around the weight of the world on my shoulders. It was all stored in my body, my soma. This profound breathwork experience fundamentally changed the way I viewed addictions, mental health and the health of the physical body, including dis-ease. As I continued with somatic practices and then found Spinal Energetics, a lot of the things that I was struggling started to melt away, pain relieved and a healthy sense of self started to develop. I have now dedicated over a decade to my own healing and over coming trauma that I’ve experienced in my own personal life. This ultimately led me here, as a practitioner and owner of Soma Waves | Wellness studio, where everyone can safely express their love, their joy, their pain, their trauma, their experiences, their authenticity - their humanness.  

​

So, I am a certified intuitive energy healer, Spinal Energetics and SomatIQ Breathwork Practitioner, and mentor. I weave together a blend of modalities to create and restore balance within the mind, body and Soul. I strive to keep a balance of science and the esoteric to keep my practice grounded, yet as profound and deep as your Soul desires.

​

I have been practising and working with energy since 2018, followed by my 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training, and Kakao Ceremony Facilitation training in 2020. I then began the pursuit of a degree in Psychology and graduate certificate in Addictions and Mental Health that led me down an unexpected path. I became very interested in intergenerational trauma and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) which then led to the fascinating world of somatics and body-stored trauma. This led me to the pioneers in Somatic Therapy, Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, Dr. Gabor Mate, and Dr. Peter Levine. I then had the privilege of studying with Ratha Check, M.C., RCC. at the Integrative Somatic Studies Institute to get my Integrative Somatic Therapy Practitioner Level 1 certificate. I recently added SomatIQ Breathwork to my practice in early 2024 and am currently in practicum for Spinal Energetics. My work and I are constantly evolving which, enables me to be in service of others in a very unique and individualized way.

My wish for you is healing, wellbeing, joy, love, connection and a life worth living. Life is too short to live it as anyone other that YOU. I love you dear Soul. Thank you for being here xx.
