Welcome
I hope you find the inspiration you are seeking. As a holistic therapist I work with the whole person, mind, body and spirit together. I find people come to me with multifaceted situations and so working on these levels I find the outcome more effective and the greater the outcome the more I am motivated to continue! People often ask "what inspired you to become a therapist?"
I tell them that I was born with an active sixth sense - now we refer to this as someone who is hypersensitive. It wasn't until later in life, I realised that from an early age, I sensed and saw things that others did not. Growing up, I saw this as a disadvantage "something is wrong with me..why am I different?" Now, I appreciate that being sensitive is a precious gift that can help others.
To give some more background, at age fifteen, an enormous catalyst for me was when my father passed away and I began seeking some answers. I found faith in the supernatural and learned many things including healing, but was still battling with the effects of childhood traumas. I had an inbuilt thirst for understanding and began a process of self-healing - with the help of various therapists! (It is important to mention, that therapists are people too and have their own journey with obstacles like everyone else. The important thing, is to be able to deal with things as they come up and to realise that none of us have 'arrived' we are on an ever changing journey).
I tried very hard to be conventional - marriage, a home, children... However, with lessons learnt and many marriages later, I am now content, with the right person and I even have some step children! On my journey, I have done many courses and worked hard to find inner strength and now happiness. I learnt a lot about life frameworks - how we look at life and the belief systems that we base those frameworks on. This in turn, opened many a closed door that had long since held me back.
