East meets West

Hi there!

I'm so glad you found your way.​ Perhaps like me you too have been on a life-long quest to experience optimal health and help the people in your community liberate themselves from suffering and debilitating pain.

 

After 10 years in the corporate world, I went back to school to become a professional counselor and middle school volleyball coach. My work soon took me down the path of addiction counseling and trauma work where clients taught me that their "disorder" was actually an adaptive way to cope with the challenges of life.

 

Fast forward to being trained in Brainspotting (BSP) - a pathway to healing and expansion that validated my belief that we all have the answers within. Over the years, I have learned the benefits of integrating the wisdom of ancient eastern and indigenous healing practices with the science-based western disciplines.

 

I am passionate about supporting the well-being of therapists both in and out of the BSP community. My commitment to supporting fellow practitioners takes many forms --

  - BSP trainer and consultant for practitioners from around the globe

  - co-host of the BSP Embodied Learning Circles

  - consultant for couples co-regulating work (Imago, Parts work & BSP)

  - co-host of the Chicago and Beyond peer support group

 

Inspired by the resilient clients I met at Above and Beyond Family Recovery Center, a holistic outpatient clinic on the west side of Chicago, I founded Hana Wellness Studios. Brain Body Revolution which focuses on offering inclusive BSP training experiences and professional support for healing practitioners is a professional extension of that original vision.

 

As a first-generation immigrant, addiction, complex trauma, and chronic physical and emotional pain is part of my own story. I am reiki-informed as a master practitioner and teacher in the Mikao Isui tradition, and trauma responsive as I integrate breath work, SunDo Energy Healing, EFT and Body Tapping, and Pilates Therapy to help clients access the root of their issue and experience deep transformation.

                     

If you're a fellow healer, I hope you will consider attending an introductory Phase 1 training. And If you're here looking for personal counseling or coaching, I am happy to explore possibilities -with you. The work ahead is about letting go of limiting beliefs, gaining clarity, finding freedom, and a renewed sense of who and what you are with the help of a supportive guide.
