Somatic Coach, SE practitioner, EmRes Certified

 

Hi, I'm Eva

I have over 30 years of experience helping others transform their lives.

I hold a safe place for you to feel heard and seen to resolve your blocks, and Come Alive!

You will learn to live the life you love!

 

I have “been there, done that”. I have lived my own journey through recovery and beyond

I started my journey in Self-Awareness and Integral Healing started in 1990 and have now been in the field of personal development and coaching for 33+ years.

I  was Certified as an

  • Integral Coach in 2002
  • Somatic Experiencing Practitioner in 2008
  • EmRes practitioner in 2015.

I teach you to become self-aware and resolve emotional pain and difficulties which often cause addictive behaviors and habits.

 

You will learn new methods and tools to understand your own true thoughts, feelings, and abilities, and begin to live the life you want.

I use a multitude of avenues to heal herself and develop her own Body-Mind connectedness and wisdom.

My training and personal experiences have created a wonderful mixture of awareness and expertise to support clients who suffer from early childhood trauma, domestic violence, rage, anger, psycho-somatic body pain, anxiety and internal stress, and addictive behaviours of all kinds.

MORE ABOUT TRAINING AND QUALIFICATIONS

"I liken the body to a pressure cooker. You put the lid on. You lock it down. You put it on the stove and turn the heat on. In other words, you’re born."

Every pressure cooker has a valve that relieves the pressure to keep it even and manageable for the pot, so that the lid doesn’t fly off.

As humans, our valves that release the pressure may be a book, a cigarette, a glass of wine, sex, food, exercise, and the Internet.

These valves become a way of releasing pressure, escaping, or numbing ourselves, so we don’t feel too much pressure from the heat, and so that we do not explode, or have our “lid fly off” as in a rage attack, nervous breakdown, or psychotic episode.

Some of us have the luxury of living a life of simmer.

These people have support while they get to go to school. They marry.

They have a career. They bring children into the world. So they might not need the release valves too often because the heat is manageable. After a stressful day, they may have a glass of wine.

Or they may feel the need to exercise or just to “check out from life” with the help of a movie or a book. All are acceptable ways to stay in balance and healthy ways to let off steam.

Others, however, including me, didn’t have that luxury..

The heat was turned up very early in life: broken boundaries, neglect, rape, violence. It all makes us need bigger valves..

One glass of wine works…until it doesn’t. One turns into two, turns into a whole bottle. But we manage our pressure and pain.

I managed for more than 15 years. Vodka was my valve. I started at the age of 13. I had a glass of red wine. Wow! That felt so good going down. And the best with it was that it numbed out the discomfort in my body.

The jitters, the shaking, the cramp in my stomach, the pressure in my chest, it all got “softer,” it didn’t feel so “sharp” and painful anymore.

I quickly learned that vodka worked even better, and used alcohol to medicate for the next 17 years.

READ MORE ABOUT EVA'S STORY

I remember the day I stormed into my therapist’s office and demanded to know why she had not offered me medication.

What she said put me on the journey I am on now.

'If I offer you medication, I offer you an umbrella. You will not feel the rain, but you will not feel the sunshine either.'

I felt stuck.

I asked her, So, when I close the umbrella, I have still not figured out how to deal with the weather, right?

With a smile she said, “Nope!”

That’s when I understood that MY healing had to come from my core. I had to find a way to deal with the weather.
