Between the ages of 21 and 26, I practiced the coping skills that Dr. Fay taught me: practicing more effective communication, implementing healthy boundaries, tools to manage my anxiety, and connecting with hobbies, interests, and travel as a way to not feel so hopeless.
These skills supported me for a period of time; however, later, different symptoms began to manifest and the coping skills I had no longer supported the gradual increase of severity in my symptoms.
At age 26, I was living in North Carolina as a recent college grad, enrolled in graduate school and working three jobs. My need to disconnect from myself was so strong that I hit rock bottom. I could no longer live every moment suppressing my emotions, unwilling to self-reflect on my own behaviors, and my mind in a constant state of distortions. I decided I needed to begin therapy again at the age of 26 and wholeheartedly decided I would do whatever it took to live a life free of emotional bondage.
From ages 26 to 29, I received treatment from Dr. Tara Ferguson. Dr. Tara utilized Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as the key to unlocking the root of my symptoms. It was during this time together that we worked through my childhood sexual abuse and trauma. During this heavy period of processing my childhood trauma, my Mom passed away unexpectedly.
During those four years with Dr.Tara, I decided to repurpose my pain and grief and learn everything I could about the subconscious mind, subconscious beliefs, our individuation process, the mind-body connection, inner child work, how spirituality and the subconscious are connected, and so much more.
Now, after dedicating 15 years to my own personal internal work, I have been able to break through the behavioral limitations of my past. It is my mission and passion to teach you how to do the same.
