About Isabella’s Story of Healing —
“You’re Not Meant To Heal Alone.“
I resonate deeply with the saying, ‘In life, we’re most qualified to help the people we used to be.’
Over nearly 10+ years, I’ve struggled on and off with depression and the repercussions of a dysfunctional, traumatic childhood: divorce, verbal/emotional/psychological abuse, witnessing infidelity, feeling abandoned, religious trauma, disordered eating, cyberbullying, questioning my sexuality, constantly struggling with suicidal ideation, anxiety attacks, etc.
I’ve experienced many seasons where getting out of bed, being social, and caring for my mind and body felt incredibly challenging. I’ve felt numb, unable to connect with myself or others, consumed by my trauma, feeling extremely overwhelmed by my emotions/triggers, having endless health issues, and overwhelmed with hopelessness. Despite religiously attending therapy to address every traumatic event, I sometimes felt more defeated, as if I had only scratched the surface. Regardless of how many times therapists or psychiatrists made me feel safe to open up, I had to learn how to find safety and acceptance in my own mind and body to truly find healing.
That feeling of abandonment as a little girl stuck with me. I found a pattern of constantly self sabotaging every aspect of my life; Attachment issues, low self esteem, emotional instability, fear of rejection and a lack of trust. That lack of trust in the people who were supposed to keep me safe as a child, resulted in me not trusting myself enough to do the work to heal as I got older, causing me to never feel safe enough to connect with myself.
Uncovering the authentic Isabella, the little girl I was before societal expectations and trauma took her away from me, has been a journey. It was through processing my trauma with Ketamine + learning the power of Mind-Body connection that I found true transformation. Now, I have the privilege of helping others find their authentic selves too.
I firmly believe that we all hold the answers within us. Each person possesses a unique inner knowing, shaped by their experiences, emotions, and intuition. As a wellness and life coach, my purpose is to guide my clients through a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, leading them back to their authentic self. I assist them in reconnecting with their inner wisdom, peeling away layers of conditioning, societal expectations, and past traumas that may have obscured their ability to align with their truth. I help those heal through intentional listening and leading with love, providing them with a safe space to confront the darkest parts of their past while learning to find that safe space within themselves too. This enables them to feel freedom and empowerment to face the future.
You're not meant to heal alone.
