How can I help? Where should we start?

Hello, My name is Ivana. Are you seeking support and a safe environment to problem solve, learn to soothe your nervous system and work through feelings of sadness, loss, anxiety, depression and hopelessness?

Are you an adolescent navigating your self-worth, expression, or relationship dynamics?

Are you an adult navigating heartbreak, mental wellness and how to live a better quality of life?

Are you in a high demand work environment, helper or healer whose mind, body and soul are aching for better alignment with the things they enjoy?

 

My holistic and integrative perspective focuses on the mind, body and spirit. While you have everything you need inside, sometimes we need someone to bring it to light. I help my clients see through their pain and suffering and into their strengths, their gifts, their barriers and their resources so that they can say:

"I accept who I am and the amazing person I am".

" I realize I can be responsible, successful and meet my needs". 

" I create the life I want."

"I know I have grown, and I am able to advocate for my needs. I am no longer afraid."

"I didn't realize that these things were holding me back from a life that I didn't even know was possible."

"My sleep is better, I am less reactive with my friends and family, I don't feel as on edge and I can see things getting better for me." 

​​​

 I create a space of empathy, safety and hope where you can begin your journey towards healing and growth. At times of loss, despair, longing, and hopelessness it can be difficult to know where to go for support. I love offering tools, intuitive guidance, and empathic leadership, all while incorporating levity, deep exploration and empowerment into our work together.

​

I provide a compassionate, optimistic and down to earth experience for my clients as we work together in a comfortable environment. As a mom, diagnosed with chronic fatigue, a history of trauma and a hearing impairment, I empathize with most. My perspective on holistic health, keeps me openminded towards avenues of treatment for mental, physical and spiritual health.

 I thank you for joining me on this journey and I look forward to working with you.
