Welcome to my corner of the digital world! I’m Naomi, and I invite you to join me on a journey through this messy human life.
Navigating this messy human life
As a therapist, business owner, mother, daughter, chronic illness warrior, my life is a whirlwind of responsibilities, joys, and challenges. Amid my chaos, I’ve found solace and purpose in helping others navigate theirs.
In 2015 the diagnosis was two chronic illnesses, B12 deficiency and Fibromyalgia. These conditions stripped away my health, mobility, independence, and even my sense of self. Rock bottom became my starting point, but with my therapy training and knowledge, and the love and support of my family and friends, I slowly fought my way back.
In the meantime, I decided that I would not give up on having a career. So, in the hope that eventually I would be more independent, I set up my own online psychotherapy practice, helping others navigate their own challenges.
Life isn’t linear
Between 2020 and 2022, life brought a new set of hurdles that continually tested me as I grew my practice. In 2023 my messy human life changed again, my chronic illness intertwined with the onset of perimenopause sending my health on a downward spiral. This has forced me to reassess my life, prompting a deep dive into understanding the intricacies of the human experience.
As a therapist, it’s not lost on me that even those of us who guide others through their struggles grapple with our own. Now, my journey is turning inward. Now I’m on a quest to comprehend the complexities of the human experience. I want to discover and share how our experiences, environments, thoughts and feeling mould us. I want to know how we can heal and navigate the highs and lows of everyday life on a deeper level than before.
Often, life can be isolating, especially when we’re trapped in our own thoughts or swayed by the expectations of others. That’s why I’m here to share my knowledge and explorations with you. Together, we can make choices based on our true selves, fostering healing and resilience in the face of life’s messiness.
Pause your messy human life for a moment, and join me. Grab a cuppa, settle in, and let’s explore the journey of self-discovery. You’re not alone, and through shared experiences, insights, and understanding, I hope to inspire you to heal and navigate through your own messy human life.
Remember, you are not alone. Embrace the messiness, learn about yourself, and let’s navigate this journey together.
