MY JOURNEY

On my 27th birthday, I discovered that I was a survivor of child sexual abuse and suffered from complex PTSD.

Despite having already been involved in the somatic, healing, and personal transformational work for several years, this revelation still rocked my world. Everything I thought I knew about myself and the world was shattered; everything was called into question.

The next few years were spent facing the unimaginable - with therapy, with extensive men’s work, with grief work. I re-built a relationship with my body with Alexander Technique and the Feldenkrais method. Eventually, I re-found my relationship with joy, in my artistic practices of partner dancing, parkour, and piano.

However, the single most important part of my process became building a relationship with the Divine. How could I trust myself, other people, and the universe after what I had experienced? How could it all be one, when I knew very intimately of what kind of violence was possible? For a long time, I was deeply bitter and resentful.

Unfortunately for me, I had no models for this. I grew up in a secular family; in a secular country, and would have considered myself an atheist until I went to college, and only started calling myself an ‘agnostic’ just to be able to hang out with more people and go to Shabbat and not feel bad about it.

Fortunately for all of us, the Divine has a way of meeting us where we can be met. For me, that was through VortexHealing® Divine Energy Healing*, which I had started right before my repressed trauma emerged. Through Vortexhealing®, I met an avatar named Merlin, who became my spiritual guide and connection to the Divine.

As it would turn out, not only would Vortexhealing® set me on a spiritual path; but it would also give me access to my most powerful healing tools. With the transmissions I received in classes, I could work directly on my trauma myself. Nothing else I had learned in almost a decade of personal growth tools compared, it was the most empowered I had ever felt.

While I am still deeply committed to my own healing process, I know now that it is possible to live a peaceful, fulfilling, and beautiful life; not in spite of my trauma and not because of my trauma, but along side it.

Our sessions will primarily consist of Vortexhealing®, but also be informed by my decade of somatic and movement education, various relational skills I’ve had to learn along the way, and my experiences as a teacher and coach. I’m especially fascinated by relational and power dynamics, and constantly seek to expand my understanding of the world around me.

I hope that my work can help you discover more agency, empowerment, and independence; bring new understandings to your emotional landscape; find a deeper center; and bring some levity and lightness into the dark.

About Vortexhealing

  • The philosophy of VortexHealing®* is that all of life is one. However, because we have lost awareness of that, our experience of life is one of separation.

    This experience of separation, over time (and lives) imprints our consciousness and energy systems, creating ‘conditioning’. This can manifest as identities that we believe ourselves to be, chronic emotional positions that we experience the world through, and can even create blockages in our energy systems that lead to weakness or physical issues.

    VortexHealing® is a comprehensive system designed to clear this conditioning on every level it can be found in our energy systems.

    As we clear this conditioning, not only do we experience more emotional clarity, resilience, and physical wellness, but we also begin to awaken to the true nature of who we are.

  • VortexHealing® is a healing art that works with both Divine energies and Divine consciousness to release conditioning.

    The source of this is not the practitioner themselves - they are simply a channel for this work to come through.

  • The VortexHealing® tools can be applied to a wide range of life’s challenges. Much of what we experience is shaped by - and sometimes entirely created from - our conditioning: patterns that influence our behavior, amplify our reactions, and shape the lens through which we see the world. As this conditioning is cleared, we often discover greater inner freedom, allowing us to meet ourselves and the world with more heart, clarity, and presence.

    Conditioning can also contribute to physical imbalance. Working at an energetic level may support the healing of physical injuries or chronic pain by addressing underlying patterns that affect the body.

    That said, VortexHealing® is not the only tool for healing, nor is it a replacement for medical or mental health care. It works best as part of an integrated approach.

    In my experience, it is often remarkably effective when used alongside other modalities and thoughtful self-inquiry - which is why my work is informed by somatic methodologies and relational practices as well. VortexHealing® is a living, evolving lineage that continues to learn from and be inspired by many healing traditions.
