Depression is a common mental health condition characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed.

Types of depression:

major depression
Bipolar disorder
Seasonal Affective Disorder
Psychotic Depression
Melancholic Depression
Situational Depression

I help women who’ve experienced toxic relationships, emotional abuse, or deep disconnection come back home to themselves through nervous system regulation, embodiment, and gentle, trauma-informed tools. But before I ever trained in any of this, I came to this work as a survivor, just like you.

my story


Four years ago, I had to run away from my country  to preserve my life after surviving a toxic, violent and abusive relationship. I was left completely broken in my thoughts, my body, my spirit, and my sense of identity. I know exactly how it feels to be in a violent relationship and how hard it is to leave. It’s not as simple as just walking away. The truth is, it can take a survivor 7 to 10 times of trying before finally leaving for good. I lived through that cycle. I went back. I held on. I blamed myself. I lost trust in my own voice. I searched outside of myself for love, for safety, and for someone to choose me, all while feeling like I was losing myself more and more. That’s the painful reality of the trauma bond it keeps you tied, even when you know it’s hurting you.

Everything changed when I finally chose myself and asked for help. That moment, when I reached out and accepted support, was when true healing began. Asking for help and having a support system is not just important, it’s absolutely necessary to break free from the trauma bond. We cannot do it alone, and we don’t have to.

I didn’t just want to survive anymore. I wanted to understand. I wanted to heal. And I wanted to help other women who are going through the same pain. I know the courage it takes to start all over again, because I had to begin from zero in a foreign country, far away from the people I loved the most. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done, but I was blessed to be alive and to finally be free from that toxic relationship.

The best way I can give thanks for the gift of being alive is to give back to support other women in their healing.

MY TRAINING & EXPERIENCE

I’ve trained under world-renowned experts like Dr. Ramani Durvasula, Caroline Strawson, Dr. Arielle Schwartz, Dr. Gabor Maté, Dr. Peter Levine, Jackie Viramontez, Nita Bushman, and Nitida Gessel.

Over the past three years, I’ve completed hundreds of hours of training and supported dozens of women through mindful, body-based practices such as breathwork, EFT tapping, sound healing, trauma-informed yoga, and somatic coaching.

I hold certifications as a:

Healing Within icon.

There’s nothing ‘special’ about me I’m simply someone who knows what it feels like to be stuck, scared, and ashamed. I’ve walked through the darkness of losing myself, searching outside for love and safety, and believing I wasn’t enough. And because I’ve lived that, I also know the profound power of finally coming back to yourself of choosing your own voice, your own body, your own truth.

The best way I can give thanks for the gift of being alive is by giving back by supporting other women in their healing. That’s why I prepared, studied, and immersed myself in trauma-informed practice. I learned how trauma lives in the body, how the nervous system holds the key to healing, and how, with the right support, it’s possible to break free, to rebuild, and to create the life you deserve.

I share this because I want you to know there is hope. You are not alone. You deserve love, freedom, and peace. And I am here to walk with you, just as others once walked with me.

Healing Within is more than my story.
It is A movement.
A sacred space.
A sanctuary for survivors ready to reclaim
their voice, their body, and their truth.

My Difference

Unlike a traditional therapist, I bring lived experience as a survivor and guide from a place of embodied wisdom.

My work blends trauma-informed somatic coaching, polyvagal theory, Trauma Informed Yoga, Trauma Informed  EFT, and emotional repatterning to help you reclaim safety, voice, and power. You don’t have to explain every detail for me to understand  how you feel and what you are going through, I’ve lived the chaos, the gaslighting, the trauma bonds… and I’ve also walked the healing path.

You’ll feel seen, validated, and gently empowered. Together, we’ll move from surviving to thriving not by pushing, but by deeply listening to what your body, heart, and soul need most.
