Every journey has its ups and downs and twists and turns. Even though I have over 20 years of experience and a doctorate in clinical psychology, where I’ve integrated neuroscience, mindfulness, and spiritual psychology to help countless women reclaim their power and heal deeply rooted emotional pain...my own journey pushed me to challenge the conventions and chart a new path to wholeness.

Quite a while ago, I discovered something that shook me to my core. I realized that our subconscious mind remembers everything — even the time in the womb.

I was sitting in a pre- and perinatal psychology course in graduate school when I heard about womb twin loss, and everything in me stopped. The traits, some of the emotional patterns, the strange habit of preferring two of everything… they described me. I remember the smells in the room, the way time seemed to freeze. It felt like a veil had lifted — and I was staring directly into a grief I had carried my whole life without knowing.
No one had known I was a twin. There was no name for the grief. No validation. I felt ashamed and confused for mourning something that happened before I was even born. I kept thinking:
        "Why can’t I just get over this?"
        "Why does this hurt so much?"
        "What’s wrong with me?"

And beneath it all was a silent scream: “That was supposed to be the safest place...”

But for me, the womb had become a place of profound loss — the light of a soul I had shared space with, suddenly gone.

Looking back, I understand now why I was such a sensitive child. Why grief felt like a companion I could never shake. The subconscious wound was always there, waiting for healing.

Eventually, I was faced with a choice: Keep carrying the invisible grief that had haunted me since the womb... or step into the unknown and begin seeking healing — even if no one could name the pain I felt.

I didn’t know where to start, but I knew I couldn’t ignore it any longer. So, I chose to listen. To sit still. To trust the quiet voice inside — the one that didn’t have all the answers, but held all the truth.

That decision — to follow intuition over intellect, presence over just pushing through — became my lifeline.

My mindfulness skills became my anchor. They helped me sit with the unbearable, without needing to fix or explain it. I began exploring alternative approaches: energy healing, ancestral clearing, past life work, somatic practices, and eventually, the MAP Method.
And with each modality, I felt layers of grief begin to loosen.

I had no roadmap — just a heart full of questions and a quiet trust that healing was possible.

It was when I discovered the MAP Method that everything changed.

After decades of healing work, MAP reached the layers that nothing else had. It helped me clear the lingering trauma from the womb — the kind no one could name, but I had always felt. For the first time, I felt what it meant to be free.

I no longer had to push through or over-function to feel okay. I could be still… and feel whole.

If I could freeze-frame one moment, it would be the day I realized I no longer felt the weight of the grief. I felt my body truly rest — no pain, no tension, just presence. That moment felt like a reunion with my own soul.

Every sacrifice, every sleepless night, every confusing wave of grief — it was all worth it. Because now I live with clarity, resilience, and purpose.

I have a career I love, a partner I adore, and a daughter who came into this world during the healthiest chapter of my life — a chapter I never thought I’d reach.

And as I brought her into being, I became aware of something even deeper: the unspoken grief woven through my maternal lineage. Both my grandmother and great-grandmother lost their mothers at birth. That kind of wound doesn’t just disappear — it echoes through the DNA. And I could feel it. But unlike the generations before me, I had the tools to heal. To free the lineage of that deep grief once and for all.

Giving birth was not only a beginning — it was a profound act of healing across time.
And that’s why I’m so passionate about helping midlife women heal the hidden wounds that are still shaping their lives — so they can rewrite their future with the truth of who they really are.
