Self-Healing Stories
-
“I have finally found trust in my body again, and my confidence is soaring…After 30 years of an identity rooted in restriction and control, I finally let go—and my body did too. The work we did together helped me stay with myself and allow my body to feel safe again…I’ve been able to eat without my stomach cramping, seizing, or feeling nauseous, sluggish, or dizzy. I can finally experience stress as just stress instead of it turning into ongoing physical symptoms. The work we did truly supported me during a time when I felt helpless and hopeless.”
-Evanye Lawson, psychotherapist
