Grow with me

“Change is inevitable. Growth is optional.”
John Maxwell

Who You'll Work With

 

I knew from a young age that the world can be a difficult place to navigate.

None of us age free of unmet needs from our childhood, and I too grew up facing the challenges they can unleash.

My unmet needs left me seeking external emotional support from others, something I could never seem to give myself. I smothered my lovers and felt unable to manage my emotions in healthy ways.

Everything felt confusing, like a fight for survival in a world I had been so protected from as a child.

 

Until at the age of 22, I was gifted with an Imago workshop. 

Everything shifted.

I gained insight into the ways in which I was not taking responsibility for my own needs, and the ways I acted out my childhood frustrations in my relationships and behavior. Everything that I struggled with in my life was brought into the conscious light. There was no escape from that reality, and simply, no turning back.

I realized that being happy, being healthy and mature, meant understanding where I came from, the attachments I formed as a child, and equipping myself with effective tools to heal and reach wholeness again as a young adult.

I learned how to grow in myself so that I could attract the connections and love I wanted.

 

This marked the start of a long and studious journey. I had already completed my degree in Performing Arts, and decided to start studying Developmental Psychology. I then became a teacher in underprivilaged environments, studying my Post Graduate Certificate of Education, and later completing my Post-Graduate in Psychological Counseling.

I found the classroom to be a laboratory of souls trying to learn about the world around them, just as I was rediscovering. 

An immense sense of responsibility fell on my shoulders. I spent more time with these children than their parents did.

How would I help them grow into fully alive humans?

So, I started attending more Imago workshops and had the privilege of learning with Imago pioneers Maya Kollman and Heidi Schleifer.

I longed to bring the learning I had come to know to the lives of as many children as I could so they could grow into adults that could communicate and manage their needs and emotions in healthy ways.

Humans that would change the world, just with their very presence within it.

 

Fast track some years to nearing 40 years old and living in Asia the past decade.

I’m now a counselor, certified Imago Facilitator, psycho-educative workshop trainer and communications specialist.

Combined with a holistic approach to self-empowerment being a yoga instructor, advanced Reiki Master, meditation and sound bowl therapist, I tackle mental health from a body, soul, and mind perspective.

I’ve learned the intricacies of nurturing and the need to communicate using tools and techniques that, in a very natural way, empower people as well as creates environments that foster a growth mindset so that people want to grow. 

I’ve gone on to, quite passionately, run psycho-educative workshops, assisting people in managing mental health challenges, with a special focus on adult ADHD, educating how it ‘shows up’ in one's personality, the cause-effect and reactionary responses to it, and how one can shift from suffering and coping, to thriving and finding how their ‘challenge’ could be a superpower - it’s so much about how you perceive it, right?

 

I believe that innate in us all, is an ability to shift towards wholeness, to rekindle the parts of ourselves we lost or suppressed in our childhoods, and to live in all of the aliveness we were meant to.

 

Imago, can be that first real step towards this.

testimonials

"My first experience with Imago alongside iO was truly transformative. From the outset, iO's skillful guidance and warm demeanour set the tone for a session filled with understanding and exploration. Through the process, iO adeptly facilitated communication, allowing me to delve into the depths of my emotions and experiences. It was also more affordable than other professionally trained counselors in the area and online, which really helped me. I could see she was in this for the right reasons and I felt relieved finally finding someone professionally certified here (Chiang Mai, Thailand)."

 

"I felt a remarkable sense of empowerment and self-awareness emerging within me. The Imago session proved to be a catalyst for profound personal insights, shedding light on aspects of myself that were previously unexplored. As the session unfolded, the weight of unresolved emotions lifted, leaving me with a palpable sense of lightness and relief. iO's expertise and compassionate approach made this Imago experience not only effective but also deeply enriching, laying the foundation for ongoing personal growth."

"My partner and I never expected the transformative experience that was facilitated for us. We believed our relationship and communication was already strong, but we never realized how much power lies in attentive listening and the deepened connection that Imago could bring about until iO helped us through the dialogue. Her guidance on how to avoid misinterpretation and increase awareness when responding has been truly invaluable. The insight we gained that we hadn't realised before was a surprise. And the connection with each other after fifteen years in a relationship shifted to a whole new level of love and compassion. We can't recommend iO enough to anyone who wants to level up their communication and relationship skills. We're thrilled to continue on this journey with her and eagerly look forward to our next session!" "iO offered my ex-husband an I counseling during a very stressful period of our lives separating with a child, during covid. She used Imago Therapy to help us shift from a space of blame and shame to being able to find forgiveness and more effective communication skills with each other so we could model what was becoming an unpleasant separation to a healthier one for our child.”
