Just a few months ago, I could never have imagined living the life I have today, a life I once thought impossible. With Trish’s guidance, I found the courage to leave my narcissistic husband, reclaiming not only my peace of mind but my true sense of self. I stepped away from a corporate job that had been slowly draining me, and pursued my true calling. I launched my own private practice as a Naturopathic Doctor, guiding others to heal in ways that feel authentic, empowering and meaningful, without relying on harmful treatments or pharmaceuticals. I wake up each day living my purpose, and every moment is a beautiful blessing.
None of this would have been possible without Trish’s guidance and wisdom. She helped me face my deepest fears, release the pain I had carried for so long, and rebuild my life from the ground up. Sometimes, all it takes is one person to change everything, and for me, that person was Trish. Her retreat is truly a gift to the world.
Before I began my journey with Trish, I felt like I was just going through the motions of life, never truly living it. For over forty years, I carried emotional and physical pain that stole my joy and strained my relationships, especially with my family. Each morning, I woke up dreading the day ahead, overwhelmed by constant worry, exhaustion and a lingering sense of hopelessness.
Being an empath felt more like a burden than a blessing. I spent years trying to meet everyone else’s needs, hoping to be seen, loved and accepted. But no matter how much I gave, the love I craved never seemed to come. My childhood was filled with abuse and abandonment. I yearned for my parents’ affection and approval, but it was never there. As an adult, I found myself in relationships with narcissists who drained every ounce of my energy and shattered my spirit. The constant stress triggered my fibromyalgia, making each day a painful battle, both physically and mentally.
I knew I needed change, but I didn’t know where to begin. I’m grateful to have found Trish at my lowest point. From the very beginning, I knew this was unlike anything I had ever experienced. I began connecting the dots between my past experiences and my present suffering. As I worked through my trauma, something extraordinary happened—my physical pain began to fade. It was as if, by healing my heart, I was finally allowing my body to release the years of tension and hurt. For the first time in decades, I began to feel a deep sense of peace and freedom.

Charlotte's Story
One of the most valuable lessons I learned was how to nurture my soul. To truly invest in my well-being and heal the emotional wounds that had been with me since childhood. This shift in perspective was life-changing. I realized, for the first time, that I was worthy of love and care, something I had never believed before. By healing the trauma, I finally felt whole and at peace with who I am.

William's Story
I want to start by saying that I saw many therapists before Trish, but never felt deeply connected. Session after session, I would talk about current issues, my feelings and learn coping skills, but it always felt like I was only scratching the surface. There was no clear direction, no real progress. After years of searching for answers and coming up short, I eventually gave up on therapy altogether. I convinced myself that getting married and starting a family would finally bring me peace, that they would fill the emptiness I carried. But no matter how much love I poured into my relationships, the void only grew. I had fallen into a pattern of people-pleasing, keeping my own needs silent, and hiding the pain I felt inside.
For years, I carried a secret I never shared with my wife- my childhood sexual abuse. I wanted to be the strong, reliable man my family could rely on, not someone who was “broken.” But it’s hard to be dependable when you’re battling mental breakdowns and unpredictable mood swings. My anger became explosive, and every outburst left me feeling more ashamed, isolated and distant from the people I loved most. All I wanted was to be a good father and husband, to protect my family and watch us grow together, but instead, I pushed them away. I was terrified of ending up alone, without a family to grow old with.
While my trauma nearly cost me everything, I chose to fight for my life, and I’m so grateful I did. The most important advice I can give to anyone going through something similar: don’t give up. Keep fighting, no matter how dark it feels. Do whatever it takes to work with Trish, because her program will completely change your life and your relationships.
Trauma slowly took over my life. Bottling up my emotions only made them explode, and my anger and frustration began to sabotage the ones I loved. My marriage was crumbling and I no longer had a relationship with my daughter. You could say I was at “rock bottom.” The guilt and shame were suffocating, and at times, I felt like I couldn’t go on. I considered ending my life. After twenty-eight years of therapy and countless attempts to manage on my own, I felt broken beyond repair.
By the grace of God, I found Nouvelle Amour and connected instantly with Trish. Her retreat became the light in the darkest chapter of my life. For the first time, someone truly saw me and understood my pain. Trish offered more than just therapy, she created a safe, structured space for healing, where each week I released layers of deep trauma. Through her program, I was able to heal decades of pain and rebuild myself from the inside out. Today, I stand as a new man- calm, confident and finally at peace with who I am. Challenges no longer shake me; instead, I move through life with a steady strength.
But the most beautiful part of this journey has been my family. My daughter and I are closer than ever, and I see her often. I’m happy to share that I’ll soon be a grandfather! The thought of holding my grandchild just fills me with joy! I’ve even made amends with my ex-wife, finding forgiveness and closure in our relationship. Healing has given me back not just my life, but my family, which means more to me than I can put into words.
Today, I am living a completely new life—sober, free and fully present. I wake each morning with peace in my heart and gratitude for the second chance I’ve been given. Learning to forgive myself for past mistakes has been both challenging and deeply transformative, showing me that I am worthy of a second chance. Trish, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. You didn’t just save my life, you saved my marriage.

Hannah's Story
For years, alcohol was my escape. It started in my early twenties, when the weight of depression and anxiety became too heavy to bear. Every night, I’d pour a glass of wine, hoping it would ease the pain, quiet the racing thoughts and make life feel just a little lighter. But in reality, it only made things worse. My struggles spilled into my relationships. I lashed out, sabotaged friendships and pushed away the people I loved most.
Deep down, I never felt good enough. Feeling unworthy led me down a path of self-destruction, including multiple affairs. I chased validation in all the wrong places, desperately searching for a sense of worth. But with every affair, I sank deeper into shame and guilt. I hated myself for the choices I made, yet no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t break the cycle.
I was ready to give up. No matter how hard I tried, nothing seemed to change. Years of therapy, two treatment centers and many promises to myself and my family all ended the same way—I relapsed, and felt heartbroken and ashamed. I didn’t understand why I kept hurting the person I loved most, my husband. The guilt weighed so heavily on my heart.
Everything shifted when I met Trish. For the first time, I felt truly seen—not just my mistakes, but the wounded parts of me I had buried for so long. Trish helped me uncover the root of my pain. I began to understand that my drinking and affairs were attempts to numb the trauma I had endured as a little girl, the trauma of being molested. For the first time, I realized that my past was not my fault, and that my actions were my way of coping with pain that had never been addressed.
Trish’s empathy made me feel safe enough to face my most painful memories. She showed me that my trauma didn’t define me, that I wasn’t worthless. I was someone who had survived unimaginable pain, and that gave me hope. Hope that I could heal. Hope that I could become a better person. Hope that I was worthy of love, forgiveness and a fresh start. She gave me the tools and confidence to finally believe in myself again.
Her trauma retreat was beautifully and intentionally designed, with each step building upon the last to guide me toward strength, confidence and self-trust. The journey took courage and effort, yet I never once felt alone or overwhelmed. Trish’s support turned even the hardest moments into opportunities for growth. It was an experience that was not only empowering and nurturing but also profoundly healing. Every challenge was met with compassion and encouragement, and I can truly say this program has been the most life-changing investment I have ever made in myself.
Brent's Story
For the past ten years, my life had been slowly falling apart. I was sinking deeper into a depression I couldn’t escape. I felt completely alone and didn’t even recognize myself anymore. Every day was heavy with sadness, and I had no idea how to climb out of this hole. On top of that, I carried so much anger and resentment toward my family for abandoning me, leaving me with a babysitter who abused me.
Over the years, I tried therapy, hoping someone could help me make sense of my pain. We talked about my past here and there, but no one ever addressed the sexual abuse I had endured. Instead, I was given coping strategies. But I didn’t want to just “get by.” I wanted to find myself again. To laugh, to feel joy, to finally live a life that didn’t feel like a daily struggle.
A friend mentioned Trish and her Transformational Healing Retreat, saying it had completely changed their husband’s life. Desperate for something different, I took a leap of faith and joined the program.
From the very first session, Trish had a way of making me feel completely safe, like she could see all the pain I had been carrying. I had a huge breakthrough- trying to move forward without healing my trauma was like trying to build a house on quicksand. No matter how hard I pushed, it kept collapsing beneath me. I finally realized that true growth only comes from repairing the foundation first.
Trish helped me open up about feelings I had buried for years, feelings I was afraid to even name. For the first time, I could speak my truth without feeling judged, criticized or misunderstood. It felt like a weight I was carrying had finally lifted off my shoulders. She showed me that my pain wasn’t something to hide or be ashamed of, it could actually become a source of strength. Every scar, every painful memory could be used to fuel my growth. And in that moment, I finally felt free.
This program has truly changed me. I no longer dwell on the past. My mind feels lighter, clearer, and the sense of freedom I experience now is hard to put into words. Trish, thank you for your patience, your kindness and for being a ray of sunshine in my darkest days. You’ve made an enormous impact on my life, and I hope our paths cross again someday.

From the outside, my life looked perfect - an impressive career, a loving family and a beautiful home. But behind that polished exterior, I was deeply unhappy. It felt like I was living two lives: one for the world, perfectly put together, and another where I was barely holding on. Even simple things, like running errands or putting on a smile, felt overwhelming. I was constantly on edge, terrified that the life I had worked so hard to build could crumble at any moment.
I had spent years searching for peace - therapy, medications, wellness retreats - hoping something would make me feel whole. But nothing worked. By the time I found Trish’s program, I wasn’t just skeptical, I was exhausted from all the failed attempts to heal. Still, reading about Trish’s approach and the hearing the stories of others who had transformed their lives gave me small glimmer of hope.
This retreat felt completely different from anything I had ever tried before. Trish didn’t see me as broken or needing to be fixed. Instead, she made me feel safe enough to stop running from myself. It was like opening a locked room inside me that I had avoided my whole life. With her guidance, I was able to walk into that room, face the pain my younger self had been holding onto, and finally see parts of me I never even knew existed.

Today, we’re traveling the world as a family and making memories I’ll never forget. Seeing life through my kids’ eyes reminds me how beautiful it is. I’m proud that our journey is teaching them what resilience looks like and why taking care of yourself matters. Every day, I focus on what’s most important- loving myself, soaking up time with my family and being fully present. Healing has given me the freedom to finally be myself and the courage to follow my heart in everything I do.
I know how scary it can feel to open up about your trauma. I’ve been there- hurt, let down and disappointed so many times that I didn’t want to trust anyone or anything again. But Trish’s retreat is unlike anything else. You’ll walk away feeling like you can finally let go, be yourself and face the world with a fresh start.
Before all this, I was just trying to get through each day. Completely drained and stuck in the cycle of keeping everyone else happy. Now, life feels totally different. I’ve found real peace, and my husband and I are living the life we used to dream about, full of love and adventure.

Celine's Story
Growing up, I always felt like I didn’t belong in my own family. No matter what I did, it never felt like enough. My dad kept his distance, never showing the love or affection I needed. And my mom’s constant criticism slowly chipped away at my confidence, leaving me feeling small and unworthy. After a while, I started to believe their words, and felt like I was always a disappointment.
When I was seven years old, my uncle molested me. I never told anyone. I didn’t even understand what happened. I just felt confused, ashamed and broken inside. I didn’t realize how much it shaped my life until years later. As a teenager and even as an adult, I kept chasing love in all the wrong ways. I thought if I could make people happy, they’d love me. I confused love with sex, and the guilt and shame just grew heavier. It eventually showed up in my marriage. I had affairs that hurt my family and my kids. I hated my body, I blamed my parents for not protecting me. And deep down, I hated myself.
Finding Trish’s retreat felt like it was meant to be, like the universe gave me exactly what I needed. For the first time, I faced my trauma and start healing. As I worked through the pain, things started to make sense. I finally understood why I had felt so alone and disconnected for much of my life. Trish helped me see new possibilities and, more importantly, helped me see myself in a whole new way. I didn’t just heal my past, I actually started to love and accept myself. That’s been the most empowering part of this journey, realizing that I am worthy of love and happiness.
I now give myself the love and care I used to beg for from other people. I’ve let go of the relationships that drained me, and I’ve learned how to set boundaries that actually protect my peace. I’m not afraid to say “no” anymore. For the first time, I truly believe I’m enough, and I know my worth.
Trish, I don’t even have the words for how grateful I am. I wouldn’t be where I am today without you and your program. You’ve changed my life in ways I never thought possible. For anyone out there who feels stuck, like there’s no way forward, I promise there is. Working with Trish was the best decision I’ve made for myself. She helped me see that I am worthy of healing, worthy of happiness and I can finally live a life that feels truly mine.
I’ve always believed that certain people come into our lives for a reason, and meeting Trish proved that to be true. Before her retreat, I was drowning in depression, constantly anxious and living in fear. I felt lost, out of control, and couldn’t manage my emotions. I tried to escape by throwing myself into work, but all it did was push me further away from my wife and the life I wanted.
My wife could see how much I was struggling and encouraged me to get help, so I started going to therapy. It helped a little, but it didn’t fix everything. I kept falling back into old patterns—pulling away from people, throwing myself into work and just feeling completely drained from trying to handle everything on my own.
The day my wife discovered Trish’s retreat online felt like a turning point for me. Her program helped me see how a lot of the problems I’d been dealing with were connected to the sexual abuse I experienced as a kid. She helped me dig deep and reconnect with parts of myself I had lost along the way. For the first time, I could look back at my past without feeling completely crushed by it.

Bentley's Story
Trish inspired me in many ways, to be a better person, a better husband. What I’ve learned through this journey is that if you want to truly connect with others, you first have to understand and connect with yourself. Her retreat gave me the tools and insights to do that. The changes I’ve seen in my life and my marriage are proof of the amazing work she does. I owe where I am today entirely to her program.
This change has not only shifted how I see life, it’s completely changed our marriage. Our connection is stronger, more loving and balanced. My wife and I actually have real, heart-to-heart conversations every day, and it feels amazing. I’ve learned to open up to her in ways I never could before. Looking back, it hurts to see how emotionally distant I had been and how that affected her. I’ve learned just how important it is to show love and appreciation.
Before I started working with Trish, it felt like I was constantly climbing a hill that never ended. Every day was a struggle. I was stressed, full of doubt and always second-guessing myself. No matter how hard I tried, it never felt like I was getting anywhere.
I’ve always known deep down that I was meant to work in the medical field. Becoming a nurse has been my dream for as long as I can remember. Lately, though, I was struggling to focus and concentrate, and finishing my Nursing Degree felt impossible. My dream felt like it was slipping further and further away, and on top of that, I was dealing with really bad depression. I just felt like a failure in every way.
It wasn’t just my career that was falling apart. I was trapped in a toxic relationship with a narcissist who constantly tore me down. Every word he said broke my self-esteem, until I barely recognized the person I had become. It took me years to finally leave him, but even after I left, his cruel words haunted me. I felt shattered and alone.
My mom had gone through Trish’s trauma retreat and kept telling me I should try it. At first, I wasn’t sure. The thought of talking about my past, my traumas and the messy relationships in my life felt too overwhelming. Honestly, it scared me. I didn’t know if I was ready to face it all.
Months later, I just couldn’t take feeling like this anymore, so I took my mom’s advice and enrolled. I can’t believe I waited so long, because this whole experience changed my life.
Trish has this amazing way of gently, but directly uncovering the pain and patterns controlling my life. Every session, we worked through memories that had shaped my thoughts, how I acted, and how I felt about myself. By the middle of the program, I started to notice my depression lifting. And for the first time in what felt like forever, I caught myself smiling, genuinely smiling.
One of the most valuable lessons I learned was how to face my emotions instead of running from them. Before, I spent so much time trying to push the pain away, hoping it would just disappear. But this program showed me that real healing happens when you face what hurts, not hide from it. That small shift changed everything for me. It gave me the courage to stop burying my feelings and start accepting them as part of my story. And in doing that, I started to believe in myself again.
What I loved most about her program was how everything was put together so thoughtfully. Each week, the lessons and exercises felt easy to follow. They never overwhelmed me, but they always pushed me a little deeper toward healing. It was like everything came at exactly the right time. Going through this journey gave me a whole new perspective on life. I started to feel peace within, knowing myself on a deeper level, and finally felt connected to my purpose.
One of my most meaningful celebrations with Trish was finding the courage to return to nursing school. Being in a career where I can make a difference in people’s lives is something that deeply resonates with my soul. Signing up for my final semester reminded me that my dreams still matter, and Trish helped me see that they weren’t out of reach. I just needed the confidence to go after them, and she helped me find that.

Sophia's Story
Wow, where do I even begin? This past year has been nothing short of miraculous. Since joining Trish’s program, it feels like I’ve stepped into a new chapter of my life. Just a year ago, I was on the verge of giving up on my dreams, feeling lost and unsure about what was next. But now? I’ve achieved milestones that once seemed out of reach. I finished my nursing degree and landed a job at one of the top surgery centers in the country. Every day now starts with excitement and purpose. It feels like I’ve been given a second chance, and I’m embracing it with all my heart.
And that’s not all, I’ve met an incredible man who cherishes me. He treats me with the love, respect and kindness I’ve always deserved but never knew how to receive. Our relationship is a testament to the personal growth I’ve experienced. We make each other smile every day, encourage one another’s dreams, and share a real connection built on the same values and passions. What we have is rare and special, and it’s a beautiful reminder that I am worthy of this kind of love.
Trish, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your warmth, kindness and genuine care have meant more to me than I can say. You helped me get through some of the darkest times in my life, and because of you, I’ve started to truly embrace who I am and feel proud of myself again.
Trish has been a huge inspiration to me as a woman, encouraging me to go after my higher calling and to stop playing small. That if I don’t go for my dreams, someone else will, and I deserve to follow my heart. Thank you, Trish, for seeing the light in me, for believing in me when I couldn’t, and for showing me that I am capable of so much more than I ever thought possible.
- ONE YEAR UPDATE -
For most of my life, I thought being independent was a strength. I didn’t realize it came from feeling abandoned as a kid. From ages 11 to 13, I was sexually abused by my mother’s boyfriend, and I didn’t really understand how much it affected me. I grew up believing that asking for help was a weakness, that relying on anyone would only let me down. So I handled everything on my own, thinking being truly independent meant never needing anyone.
But after 42 years, life became unbearable. I was emotionally and physically drained. I started turning to food for comfort, trying to cope with the pain I didn’t know how to face. The emotional eating got out of control, and I gained a lot of weight. I didn’t recognize myself anymore, and my confidence disappeared. I felt trapped in a body that didn’t feel like mine, exhausted and helpless. I remember praying for a way to heal, something that would help me feel whole again.
Finding Trish’s website felt like an answer to my prayer. Talking with her, I could feel her warmth and empathy. She didn’t just acknowledge how hard I’d worked to get through my struggles, she celebrated it. And she said something that really stuck with me: asking for help isn’t a weakness; it’s a sign of strength. No one is meant to go through life alone.

Jillian's Story
Working with Trish has completely transformed my life. She genuinely cares, and it shows in everything she does. I’ve evolved more in the past few months than I had in years of therapy, and I attribute all my progress to working with her.
I learned to stop using food to numb my feelings. Instead of eating my emotions, I started sitting with them, really working through them. And as I healed, something amazing happened—I lost over 30 pounds without even focusing on dieting.
What I didn’t realize was how much my body had been holding onto all that trauma. Letting go of it didn’t just lift a weight off me emotionally, it actually felt like a physical release too. It was mind-blowing to experience how intertwined my healing was with my physical transformation.
The confidence and self-love I’ve gained has completely changed how I show up in life. I don’t feel like I have to control everything anymore. I’ve learned to relax, trust the process and fully be present. I’m noticing joy in the little things now—a beautiful sunrise, a warm cup of tea, getting lost in a good book. My heart feels lighter, and I’m excited to see what this next chapter brings. Trish, you really have a gift for changing lives. What you’ve done for me is something I’ll never forget.
Sebastian's Story
Trish literally saved my life! Six years ago, I went through an intense weight loss journey, shedding nearly 250 pounds. I pushed myself to the limit, driven by self-criticism. I believed the only way to succeed was to punish myself, to control my body through sheer will and discipline. That mindset probably came from my years in the military, where being tough was everything.
But even though my body changed, my mind didn’t. I was still trapped in negativity and self-doubt. I couldn’t celebrate my hard-earned transformation because, deep down, I felt ashamed and unworthy.
After dealing with a series of injuries, the weight started creeping back. Slowly, I gained back about half of what I had lost, and with every pound, the shame and failure crushed me. I felt like all my hard work had been for nothing. I was lost, broken, and drowning in a dark place and didn’t know how to escape.
When I first decided to work with Trish, it was because she lived the kind of life I wanted for myself. She was confident, happy, and it felt real, not fake or forced. I loved how she cared for herself, not just physically, but emotionally and mentally, too. Her life wasn’t just about looking good, it was balanced, healthy and full of purpose. I needed someone who didn’t just give advice, but actually lived it, someone who had been through struggles and could guide me with understanding.
Trish was exactly that person. She didn’t just help me lose weight and keep it off, she helped me find the real me underneath all the layers of trauma, insecurity and self-doubt. She gave me the tools to rebuild my confidence and showed me that my worth has nothing to do with a number on a scale. Trish taught me to be kind to myself, to accept both my strengths and my flaws. For the first time, I felt truly free, not just in my body, but in my mind too.

After 58 years of struggling, my life has become very peaceful. I don’t let my problems take over anymore, I face them head-on, knowing I can handle whatever comes my way.
Trish is unlike any therapist I’ve ever met. She truly cares, not just about your progress, but about you as a person. She’s right there beside you, walking through the trenches with you, never giving up. She’s always been my biggest cheerleader, encouraging me when I thought I couldn’t go any further. Trish is truly a one-of-a-kind therapist, and I can’t express enough how much she has helped me achieve, both inside and out.
Let me start by saying, I never thought I needed therapy. I always told myself, “This is just who I am,” and I accepted it without question. But everything changed when I faced the real possibility of losing the woman I love, my girlfriend of five years. The thought of a future without her hit me hard, and it was the wake-up call I needed.
During this tough time, I was referred to Trish. I hoped to find a way to become a better partner and a better man, but what I found was so much more.
Working with Trish opened my eyes to a new perspective. I was shocked to see just how much my childhood trauma had shaped everything in my life. I’d built these walls around myself, thinking they would protect me, but really, they just kept me isolated from love, from connection, even from my girlfriend. Those walls made it almost impossible to have a real, meaningful relationship.
As I began imagining our future together, it hit me- I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. With the love and support of her family and friends, I planned a beautiful proposal, and she said “Yes!” We’re now engaged, and looking back, I know without a doubt that I wouldn’t have reached this place without the work I did with Trish. She helped me become a better man, a more loving partner, and most importantly, she helped me heal my heart. I’ve never been this happy in my life.

Kenneth's Story
I was stuck in a dark place, and it felt like my life was slipping through my fingers. The pain from my childhood was so heavy that I didn’t know how to deal with it. I started drinking, thinking it would take the edge off and help me forget. For a while, it felt like an escape. But in reality, it only pulled me deeper into an addiction that was slowly destroying me.
My turning point came the night I got arrested for a DUI. I’ll never forget the mix of shock and shame that hit me. In that moment, it felt like my whole world had collapsed. I had to face the truth I’d been avoiding—I wasn’t the person I wanted to be, and I was nowhere near the life I’d once hoped for. That night was the red flag I could no longer ignore. I realized I couldn’t keep running from my past or numbing my pain. Something had to change.
I tried going to therapy, but after working with two different therapists, it just didn’t click. Their sessions felt surface-level, and I wasn’t getting what I needed. I kept thinking, there has to be more than this. I didn’t feel a connection, so I kept searching, hoping to find someone who truly understood what I was going through. That’s when I came across Trish’s website. The moment I saw that she specialized in trauma and addiction, I felt this spark of hope. I hadn’t even met her yet, but this voice inside me was saying, this is it… this is who can finally help you.
With Trish, it just felt different. I felt an immediate sense of comfort and trust, like I was talking to a lifelong friend. She didn’t judge me or try to rush me. Instead, she took the time to listen and understand my whole story, past and present. For the first time, I felt safe enough to put everything out there.
It hit me one day in our session, that the drinking wasn’t really the problem. It was just my way of numbing the abuse I endured. My trauma had affected so much of my life, and instead of feeling lost in it, I started to see a way forward. It’s hard to explain, but it was like the fog lifted, and I could finally see life with a clearer, more kinder lens.
I’m proud to say I’ve been sober for five months now, and, it has been truly life-changing—not just for me, but for my entire family. Trish didn’t just help me heal my trauma, she helped me reconnect with the people I love. The biggest gift has been my relationship with my dad. We’re rebuilding our bond, and it feels amazing to have that closeness again after many years.
I also worked up the courage to leave a corporate job where I felt invisible and undervalued. It wasn’t an easy choice, but deep down I knew I deserved better. Now, I’m going after my Doctoral Degree, and just last week, I landed my dream job! I’m working with people who see my worth and are excited to help me grow. It feels incredible to finally be in a place where I’m appreciated. I’ve never felt more on track in my life or more hopeful about what’s ahead.
Trish isn’t just your typical therapist; she’s a coach and mentor who genuinely cares about you. She never judged me, no matter how messy or complicated my life felt. Instead, she helped me face the parts of myself I’d been avoiding for years. Her support gave me the courage to face it all. Because of Trish, I’ve rebuilt relationships with my family and finally feel confident going after my dreams. Trish, thank you for turning my life around, you truly are the best!
- Kenneth
The changes I went through inspired my dad. He saw how much I was growing, how I was finally finding some peace, and it made him want to start his own healing journey. Now we’re going to therapy together, working through our past, and building a bond that’s stronger than ever. Trish helped bring healing to my family.
For years, I felt like I was wandering through life with no direction, disconnected from everything that used to bring me joy. Depression and fear weighed me down so heavily that even the simplest days felt like a battle. Gradually, I started pulling away from the world and the people I loved most. I buried myself in work, hoping it would take away the pain, but instead, it only created more distance between me and my children.
Looking back, I can see that I was unknowingly sabotaging my own life. The depression kept getting heavier, and I started turning to food for comfort, which only made me feel even more isolated. I felt stuck in a lonely cycle, losing connection not just with the people I loved, but with myself too.
The last eight years felt like a blur. I reached out for help so many times- therapists, EMDR sessions, even two wellness retreats. Each one brought a little relief, but I always seemed to slip back into that same dark place. The financial strain was heavy, but the emotional toll felt unbearable. I felt like a failure. Suicidal thoughts haunted me, yet I couldn’t bring myself to tell my husband. I was terrified of burdening him, so I kept my pain hidden. I felt completely alone, scared and lost.
While searching online one day, I came across Trish and her Transformational Healing program. Signing up felt like a last-ditch effort. What I didn’t know at the time was that it would turn out to be the best decision of my life. Through Trish’s guidance, I healed thirty years of trauma. The journey wasn’t always easy, but it led me to a profound peace I had never thought possible. For the first time in years, I genuinely feel excited about the future. Every day, I’m grateful I took that leap, because the darkest chapters of my life are finally behind me.

Trish empowered me to become my higher self. She has this incredible gift for seeing the best in people, even when we can’t see it in ourselves. Whenever I doubted myself or felt completely overwhelmed, her support and encouragement gave me the strength to face my toughest challenges. I honestly don’t even know where I’d be without her. The transformation I’ve experienced has gone beyond anything I could have imagined. My heart is full of gratitude, not just for the healing, but for the joy, peace and connection that now fill my life. Trish’s program didn’t just change me; it changed everything.
This retreat transformed my life. My husband and I have grown closer than ever. We laugh together, talk more openly and really enjoy being with each other again. I cherish every moment with my kids- their laughter, their curiosity, the way their happiness lights up my world. This journey has taught me what really matters. Life is no longer something I take for granted. I treasure every single second with my beautiful family.
For years, I hid behind a mask of strength, always putting on a brave face and convincing everyone, including myself, that my life was perfect. On the outside, I looked happy, but inside, I was struggling. I built walls around myself because letting anyone in felt too risky. I didn’t trust people, and when I did, I usually ended up disappointed. Sharing my needs felt impossible. Most of the time, I either stayed quiet or lashed out, never letting anyone see the pain I carried inside.
For the past twenty years, I was in and out of therapy, always searching for healing. Sure, it helped me handle day-to-day life, but it never addressed the deeper pain I carried. My childhood trauma was still there, buried beneath years of coping and just trying to survive. Then I was referred to Trish. Reading her success stories gave me hope, and I decided to take a leap of faith, trusting that this would be my new beginning.
It’s hard to fully express just how life-changing this journey has been. Trish is a rare gem—wise beyond her years, incredibly compassionate and intuitive. She opened my eyes to inner wounds I didn't realize I was carrying, showing me how shame and guilt had been holding me back from truly living. I began to see that many of my choices, my fears and even my self-doubt were rooted in feeling "not enough" or “unworthy.”
Working with Trish taught me to set higher standards for myself and to value my own happiness. I began carving out space for my dreams and focusing on my priorities. One of my proudest moments was opening my own yoga studio, a dream I never thought possible before Trish’s retreat. She gave me the confidence to fully go after what I wanted, and the joy I feel every day, doing something I love, is indescribable.

Trish achieved what five other therapists couldn’t—she truly saw me, deeply cared about my well-being and helped me heal the parts of me I thought were lost forever. In her safe, nurturing presence, I healed deep trauma, and my life began to transform in ways I never imagined. My inner child and I are forever grateful for her wisdom and care. For anyone ready to heal deeply and live fully, Trish will show you the way.
Growing up with a narcissistic father affected so much of my life. When I was young girl, our family’s life revolved around him. If he was angry, we all felt it. He manipulated situations to get what he wanted, and lashed out when things didn’t go his way. I learned early on to walk on eggshells, trying not to upset him, trying to keep the peace. But no matter what I did, it was never enough.
And then there was the emotional distance. He was physically present, but emotionally absent. It was like he had a wall up, and no matter how hard I tried, I could never break through. That left this emptiness inside me, a void I didn’t know how to fill. For a long time, I thought this was just “normal” family life. It wasn’t until I reached my thirties that I began to see how much this shaped me and my relationships.
As I got older, that pain followed me everywhere. I was always battling worry, self-doubt and fear, and most days it felt impossible to cope. I found myself running from anything that reminded me of him- the rejection, the criticism, the feeling of never measuring up. I kept trying to prove myself at work, in relationships, even with friends, but the more I tried, the more empty I felt inside. Deep down, I didn’t believe I was worthy of love. I thought if anyone really saw me for who I was, they’d walk away. And carrying that belief around every single day was exhausting.
After just a few months of working with Trish, I started to see myself with clarity. I realized how much I’d been carrying this impossible need to be perfect. My dad’s critical voice had been stuck in my head for years, making me feel like I was never enough. But with Trish’s guidance, that voice started to quiet. I began to imagine a life where my past didn’t control me, where I didn’t have to live for anyone else’s approval. I started trusting myself, speaking up, setting boundaries, and making choices that felt good for me. I felt free to build the life I had always hoped for.
And then, the pandemic hit. Looking back, I know that if I hadn’t been working with Trish, I would have completely fallen apart. The fear, the isolation, the unknown- it all would have pulled me right back into the same old patterns of overwhelm and helplessness. Even with the world shutting down and so much uncertainty everywhere, I stayed steady. I felt grounded in a way I never had before. The work Trish and I did together had given me practical tools, but more importantly, it gave me strength. For once, I could meet life’s challenges head-on instead of running from them. I grew more in those few months with Trish than I had in the previous seven years of therapy.
What really set Trish apart from other therapists is was how practical and personal her approach was. This wasn’t the typical “just think positive” advice or a generic list of coping skills. I had tried this before, and none of it ever worked. Trish actually took the time to understand me, my struggles, my story and my life. We built a plan together that felt uniquely mine. She gave me real, actionable steps I could lean on every day.

Through this journey, Trish opened my eyes to the real me, hidden under years of pain and self-doubt. Now, when life throws challenges my way, I don’t fall apart. I face it with a calm confidence. Even family and close friends have noticed the change. They see the confidence I carry, how peaceful and grounded I am. This makes me feel so proud of all the inner work I’ve done.
To celebrate, I’ve booked a solo trip to Italy this summer, embracing my adventurous side and my love for travel. This feels like such a beautiful time in my life, everything is falling perfectly into place. I know this transformation wouldn’t have been possible without Trish. She gave me the tools to heal, and even more importantly, she helped me believe, deep in my soul, that I am worthy of this life.
