I’ve always been someone who wanted to help people. I knew what it was like to be in pain, and if I could ease that for anyone else, that’s what I hoped to do.
When my own healing began many years ago, I dreamed of going to university, and becoming a therapist was at the top of my list. But I never thought I was smart enough. I didn’t have the money. And trauma from my past often held me back. The years kept flying by.
Then one day an opportunity came, and I said yes. I started my bachelor’s in 2021, at 44 years old, and I’ve been in university full time ever since. I studied psychotherapy, finished my master’s, and now I’m working on my doctorate. I’ve loved it more than I ever imagined.
When you know you’re in the right place at the right time, it’s a marvellous miracle from God. I’m so grateful to be on this journey, and to walk alongside people on theirs.
For a while now, I’ve also been quiet online. Behind the scenes, I’ve been building: videos about where our work comes from and what actually happens in therapy, a mentorship group for therapists who want to reach more people, and tools that make the work a little lighter.
