Somatic Practitioner & Traditional Midwife
Hello.
I am Demi.
I specialize in guiding individuals through the transformative journey of healing from past trauma and emotional pain. I hold a deep conviction that our bodies are profound storytellers, carrying the narratives of our experiences, traumas, and, ultimately, the key to our liberation. However, in the midst of life's noise, we often overlook the language our bodies speak. My commitment is to empower and guide you to listen and decipher these messages, unlocking the path to profound healing.

My Journey to Wholeness...
In 2016, I embarked on a profound journey back to wholeness, a path that initially felt distant and challenging. While I had delved into many realms such as yogic philosophy all the way to midwifery (birthing babies), both through clinical and traditional lenses, and maintained a fierce dedication to my physical well-being, I discovered an entire microcosm I had overlooked in my personal and professional life—the landscape of my inner world.
​
As someone deeply attuned to my body, it became apparent that true healing required a journey within. This inner terrain held not only my traumas and wounds but also my unique gifts and, beneath it all, my truest essence. I began a dedicated exploration of deep healing and Self-love, a journey that urged me to listen intently to the subtle signposts within my own body.
​
Pain and sensations emerged in specific places, and I learned to interpret them as messages from my inner "parts" aka children. This became the starting point for profound healing. I embraced various modalities to unlock the stories stored within my body, mastering the art of death and rebirth both within mySelf and through my professional journey.
​
Now, having traversed the depths of my own being, I am passionate about guiding others on their paths to Self-discovery and healing. Through my experiences, I teach individuals how to attune to their bodies, listen to the whispers within, and embark on their own transformative journeys.
​
This journey of Self-discovery, marked by embracing the stories within, has become not just a personal odyssey but a foundation upon which I build connections and facilitate healing for others.
