InĀ Derek's Words:

My Path of Discovery:

I began my professional journey as an associate marriage and family therapist and life coach. While these paths offered valuable insights and techniques, I soon realized that they didn't resonate deeply within me. It was during my personal exploration that I encountered somatic work and emotional release, and I found myself completely drawn to their transformative potential.

My Personal Struggles:

From a young age, I battled with binge eating, which shaped my relationship with food and myself. As the shy kid, I often felt overwhelmed by anxiety and fear, hindering my ability to fully express myself. I felt stuck, trapped in a version of myself that didn't feel genuine or aligned with my true essence. Deep down, I believed that being my authentic self was unsafe in this world. I sought validation through people-pleasing, mistakenly thinking it would meet my needs. However, I soon realized that this path only left me feeling unfulfilled.

The Path to Liberation:

Through my own healing journey, I discovered the extraordinary power of somatic work and emotional release. These modalities provided a safe and nurturing space for me to explore the depths of my being, unravel my emotional baggage, and step into my authenticity. It was a journey of self-discovery, self-acceptance, and profound transformation.

My Mission and Approach:

Inspired by my personal transformation, I have made it my life's mission to guide others on their own path towards liberation and authenticity. I believe in creating a space of safety and connection, where you can freely explore, celebrate, and set free the truth of who you are. Together, we will delve into the rich wisdom of your body and emotions, releasing the layers of conditioning that have held you back.

In our sessions, I provide gentle guidance, deep listening, and unwavering support. I bring a holistic perspective that honors the interconnectedness of your mind, body, and emotions. Through somatic work and emotional release, we will unlock the potential for profound healing, self-awareness, and empowerment.

It's time to break free from the limitations that have kept you in a state of disconnection from your true self. Let us embark on this transformative journey together, where you can rediscover your authenticity, reclaim your power, and experience the joy of living as your truest expression.

I invite you to step into a world of transformation and healing. Contact me today to begin your journey toward emotional liberation and embrace the vibrant, authentic life you deserve.
