My mission is to facilitate healing for the masses through secure relationships

Growing up, my family faced a lot of challenges starting with the death of my older sister when I was a 1.5 years old. My mom experienced deep grief and became mentally unstable shortly after, and was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. My sister drawn while my mom was changing my diaper so I unconsciously stuffed down feelings of grief, sadness, shame and guilt from what happened. I became responsible for everyone’s emotions since then.

My parents blamed each other, and became resentful with each other. They fought often and eventually divorce when I was 14. I witnessed them fight several times, and I felt scared and helpless.

I was 32 years old when my life changed again forever after I was diagnosed with bipolar I disorder. That led me to a healing journey for the next 20 years. I was living my life purposeless, disconnected from myself and others. I felt scared, alone, and empty inside most of the time.

As I began to do my inner-work, I realized I had layers of trauma, and years of failed relationships. My biggest fear was never find a man who loved me because I felt defective.

I went back to school and became a student of relationships, psychology, attachment styles, trauma and the nervous system.

Something amazing happened after my first second year in school! I attracted a great man into my life thanks to all the work I had done. Together we have a loving secure relationship based on trust, safety, respect, care, support, and acceptance of each other. We encourage each other to be the best version of ourselves, which occasionally shines the light, uncomfortably, to where I need to grow.

After several years, my continued pursuit of healing lead me to Dr. Nima Rahmany. Thanks to his work, knowledge, experience, care and compassion, I cured myself from bipolar disorder after 20 years.

Nothing inspires me more than watching my clients transform in front of my eyes, seeing them shift and overcome their perceived limitations, witnessing them go deeper into their hearts while becoming more empowered, and seeing the spark in their eyes the moment they reconnect with themselves.

I live in beautiful Seattle with my husband Brett and our kitty Valentina.
