Just ten years ago I was stuck in a relationship where I was abused. Mentally, physically, emotionally, financially, and when my son was born, I woke up. I saw the writing on the wall and I got out.

In the blink of an eye, I became a single mom when my eldest was barely two months old. I was lost, confused, traumatized. I buried it in thinking I could make it through life by just ignoring my trauma.

Then I started therapy in 2019. I uncovered childhood trauma, abuse in my dysfunctional family, and the emotional abuse I endured as an adult at the hands of my parents. I was uncovering trauma but beginning to lay the foundations for healing.

Therapy was working. I was healing–I’m still healing.

And now I am working hard to destigmatize mental illness with my newly launched podcast Dopamine Deficient, TikTok videos, and working with others to create an arsenal of mental health tools.

Getting the right mental health information sometimes means getting a VERY clinical perspective. Lived experience information is also incredibly validating and important for so many people. Check out what you can expect below.
