Step into your Power, Embrace your FREEDOM

Dedicated to helping others immerse themselves in their own balanced power, into a place of internal freedom.

A little bit about me. . . .

I was my first client. Not by choice, by force. Everything I teach my students/clients I have integrated into my own life. Every technique and tool I use, I have practiced myself so that I can heal a lifetime of trauma, over 24 years of emotional, physical, and sexual abuse since early childhood. I am very familiar with the dark side of life. The challenges we face, the pain, chaos; the physical and mental chronic illnesses which are birthed from these places.

The reason I do what I do now (holistic trauma therapy) is due to the western medicine system failing me as it had to many others in attempts to heal the debilitating symptoms of C-PTSD. Once I untangled myself from the web of pharmaceutical medications, ECT (Electroconvulsive therapy) and band aid solutions, I started to do my own investigations.

Through the empowering, knowledgeable teachers and kindred beings I have had the honor to meet in my life and through my own critical thinking practices, I found the things that work to gain full liberation. It is a full mind-body process. A regeneration, a deeper connection to self, a relationship so profound where you can create a life you enjoy waking up to.  Once I found that for myself, I knew I had to share it with those who also want liberation. How could I not? I didn’t even know this kind of freedom was even possible. . . weeks/months/years would go by without being able to leave my bed. Chronic pain, chronic illnesses , and severe mental health instability riddled my entire being. Spending a month at a time in and out of hospitals for 2 years. Medicated with a multitude of different pills from A-Z trying to find the right combination. . . to numb? To forget? To simply to get by to no avail? That was not freedom. That was not living. That doesn’t mean that pharmaceutical medications don’t work for some people, or that they can be useful during certain periods of your healing journey, they can provide assistance. Unfortunately, that was not my reality as it only made everything significantly worse. Thus I sent myself out to find a mixture of different tools, techniques, therapies, and deep spiritual practices that work, cultivating real peace, real harmony. Healing, clarity and closure.  If you are looking for alternative methods, I am honored to teach you what I know and find the create combination of methods for your specfic needs.

Over the period of 13 years, I have taken over a dozen courses, studied and practiced various techniques from around the world including Suicide Prevention, Life Coaching, Ayurvedic Nutrition, Mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Vipassana Meditation, NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming), Harm Reduction, Shamanic Quantum Regression Integration Therpay, 500 Trauma Informed Yoga Therapy, Somatic Release, Holotropic/Rebirthing Breathwork, Pranayama, Critical Thinking Skills, Emotional Regulation, Sound Therapy, Massage, and working closely with plant medicines such as ayahuasca, cannabis, and psilocybin. I have found through my own journey to freedom, everything necessary to reach the highest potential. To let go of every limiting belief. To dissolve the emotional attachments to events that occurred within my life. To use that pain as a catalyst to become the best version of myself forging self love, self respect, awareness, wisdom, strength, and freedom from the depths of my internal purgatory, creating a blissful and peaceful life.

 

You can heal and you will. I believe in your innate greatness, your power, and your birthright to freedom.

Embrace Your Highest Potential

Lisa Lynn:

I just wanted to say the I had an amazing session with Ivy yesterday! The amount of epiphanies I had during our time together was quite profound! The session activated clarity, which was an intention we set together and I’m still receiving downloads of clarity. When I initially set the intention for clarity, I had no idea what type of clarity I would receive and it was bigger than I expected! Thank you Ivy. My heart is full, and I’m truly grateful for you! #GratefulWarrior

Hollie Zecca:

I was fortunate to work with Ivy over a few months, she is an exceptionally skillful, professional, and thoughtful therapist who takes time to understand your needs. Highly recommend, for a fantastic therapeutic massage.

Tom Jennings:

Ivy's massages have to be tried to be believed, she is a compassionate, knowledgeable therapist who will leave you feeling renewed, reinvigorated and relaxed. Highly recommended!

Abdiel LeRoy:  ·

I have received therapeutic body work from Ivy, and took part in a breath workshop she conducted. From the outset, I have been astonished at her breadth of study into healing modalities, and then at how she powerfully combines empathy and discipline in her work. I trust her to be vulnerable in her presence. That's rare and greatly to be treasured. Thank you, Ivy!

Dylan Fioriglio:

In the time that I spent growing and healing with the wonderful amount of methodologies Ivy has to offer. Well, let's put it this way: I never knew how much I needed, and I never knew how far I would come thanks to her amazing support and dedication. I had both mental and physical problems that I had been ignoring for most of my life that weighed heavy on me daily. After working with ivy, be it cupping /massage /sound healing /therapy or just having someone that actually hears me when I speak. With this help, all my past whights have all but vanished. If your having second thoughts, don't. There is no risk, only reward.

Aubrey Duffy- On Therapy:

When I came to Ivy for help, I was at my wit’s end. After a year of chronic, debilitating gas and diarrhea, all I had established was that the doctors were stymied. Over-the-counter medication helped a little, but I was still underweight and spending way too much time in the bathroom. I would drag myself through the “have-to” parts of my day and have zero energy for fun.

Ivy asked me questions that nobody else had, and got me started on effective ways of caring for myself. She guided me to take loving charge of my body, myself, and my life. She knows every healing technique in the book, so we zeroed in on what worked for me. She was a gentle, fearless and take-no-prisoners guide as I tackled the traumas that are the root cause of my illness. She informed, advocated, and believed in me even when I couldn’t believe in myself.

Today, I am down to 1/5 of my former dose of medication. My physical symptoms are 90% gone. I have regained the weight and feel energetic again. Best of all, for the first time in my life, I feel whole and complete. Life’s a lot more fun, and when it isn’t I have the tools to deal with it positively. Ivy, you are a true healer!

On Breathwork-Holotropic Breathing:

I had never done holotropic breathwork before, so I was nervous. At the start of our session, Ivy explained how it would work and what I could expect. She was with me the whole time, guiding my breath. As long-buried emotions came to the surface, I felt free to ride with them. I was never lost or alone because Ivy was with me every step of the way. She guided me into a place of love, freedom and acceptance. She allowed me time to gently gather myself at the end of the session. She also requested feedback in order to improve her practice. Ivy brings great compassion, knowledge and ability to every aspect of her healing work. If you are voyaging to the more mysterious parts of yourself, or simply feel that it’s time for a spiritual housecleaning, I can’t think of a better guide than Ivy.

Fatima Mechtab-I have been seeing Ivy as my life coach since October 2019 and the tools she has provided me in order to cope with trauma and anxiety have been invaluable; especially during a time of self-isolation due to COVID-19. I have also gotten so much from her mediation instruction; I use her lessons almost every day and I feel such a lightness of being, from incorporating this into my daily routine. As a coach, she is extremely flexible, accommodating and is generous with her time and information. I highly recommend her services; seriously life changing!

Omar Anon.-I've just finished my first session with Ivy and already I have a deeper conviction as to who I am supposed to be on this earth and what needs to be done to become that. You will love being in her presence 🙏🏾

Phoenix Nyx- Ivy is super knowledgeable and compassionate and I think we accomplished more in one session than I have from working with other therapists for months. I am super happy and impressed so far and look forward to future sessions. I highly recommend working with Ivy.

Tristan Tsuji-"I just went for my first ever session of reiki here, and I feel light. There was so much building that I wasn't aware of. I carry way too much weight, physically AND metaphysically, and I wasnt actually expecting anything tangible. Without getting too detailed, I finally felt safe enough to unburden and grieve.
There is a reason its a legitimate practice in Japan."

This was in the summer while dealing with a breakup, quitting Opioids, and trying to piece my life together while dealing with some very dark people who wanted to derail my recovery in their unconscious need for power. One of the only safe spaces to feel I was being encouraged to grow was during Reiki treatments here.

Stella Watters-Ivy offers such a welcoming and relaxing environment. I have chronic pain, MS, and Fibromyalgia. Since working with her, I feel stronger, more able to focus and motivate myself to reach my goals. She is very knowledgeable, supportive and offer many different therapy treatments. I've lost 12 pounds since July and have gone from using my electric wheelchair to using my walker. I recommend 100!
