Healing Spiral

Happiness hasn’t always been a given for me. It still isn’t.

I have struggled a lot with depression and anxiety — especially the past 5 or 6 years. It took so much deep self-work to pull myself out of those dark, uncomfortable, grief-filled corners of my life. Therapy, plant medicines, herbs, groups, nature, nutrition, exercise, music, body work, art, purpose, even my tattoos!...all of these pieces have played a critical role in my healing. It was holistic, and it took dedication and discipline above all else. 

This was not a linear journey — at all. I would make some progress, and then watch myself slide into regression. I would take a few steps forward and then spend another week in tears. It was a series of difficult ups and downs. Now, I understand that the healing journey is a spiral — giving us the opportunity to revisit people, feelings, patterns, programs and cycles over and over again until we can be with them, fully. Integrated. 

Man, I have so much to say about this topic. Healing, integration, etc. I will make some videos soon...but for now...

These days when I work with clients, I pull from this well of experience as I guide others towards mental and physical health. I am so passionate about this work because I know what is possible. I know you can get through it and I know you will find peace and happiness with effort and dedication. 

This is all to say...I believe in you. Keep your head up. All is coming.
