Were you adopted as a child and struggling with your identity? Experiencing feelings of loneliness and being lost? Wondering where you belong, where you fit in this world? A feeling of emptiness and that you are disconnected from yourself? Don’t feel like you always fit in with your adopted family? Do you wonder if you look or possess the traits of anyone else? Wondering how to begin to search and discover who you are and to truly love yourself?
Together, we will embark on a path to reconnect with your true self, overcoming feelings of loss and loneliness. Set's work towards helping you develop a profound sense of belonging and self-love. My goal is to help you feel excited and proud of the unique person you are and to help you understand your journey.
As an Indigenous adoptee during the sixties scoop, I have an understanding of losing your biological family, losing your culture and identity, wondering of who you truly are and where you come from. I am rooted in Indigenous and holistic knowledge, the connectedness to others and the world. Call or email me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation.
