Frequently Asked Questions

A mind-body mentor helps you understand the connection between your emotions, your nervous system, and your behaviour, so you can stop cycling through the same patterns in relationships, work, health, and self worth. My role is to guide you through somatic practices, nervous system education, and inner work so you can shift out of survival mode and into a grounded, embodied version of yourself. I help you recognize the emotional wounds and survival patterns driving your reactions and teach you how to regulate, process, and respond from a place of clarity instead of overwhelm.

A nutritionist focuses on food, a therapist focuses on mental and emotional health, and healthcare professionals focus on medical conditions- all incredibly important. A Mind-Body Mentor fills a different gap that can't be fully reached in the current healthcare system: I help you understand how your body and nervous system hold your lived experiences and how those patterns shape your relationships, stress responses, habits, and sense of safety. I help you understand difficult concepts in terms you can understand and provide you with life-changing knowledge you can actually use in your daily life. I don't replace therapy or medical care; I compliment them by giving you practical, embodied tools you can use in real time, especially when you feel activated, insecure, or stuck. 

If you're tired of understanding your patterns but still not being able to change them, you are a good fit. If you're done pretending you're "fine" and you're ready to work with your body instead of fighting your reactions, you're a good fit. If relationships, stress, or life transitions keep activating you in the exact same way- and you don't want to keep living from that survival pattern- you're a good fit. You don't have to show up healed, confident, or perfect; you just have to be willing to be honest with yourself and take small steps towards your desired outcome.

Inner work is the process of exploring your thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and past experiences to uncover what’s truly driving your patterns. Somatics brings the body into this process—using gentle movements, breath, and sensation to release stored stress, regulate the nervous system, and create lasting change.

I use the mind-body connection to help you shift not just your mindset, but your entire internal state. When your body feels safe, your mind opens up. That’s when transformation happens—from the inside out.

Absolutely. Most abandonment wounds don't start with someone physically leaving (although some do); They start with emotional gaps, inconsistency, pressure, or feeling invisible even when people were "there". If you struggle with over-giving, people-pleasing, staying too long in relationships, choosing unavailable partners, shutting down when you feel criticized, or constantly doubting your worth- those are common survival patterns associated with the abandment wound. Even if you grew up in a home where all your physical needs were met, your nervous system may still carry an old fear of not being chosen, not being supported, or not being safe to need anything. This work help you untangle those patterns so you can finally trust yourself again.
