LEARN MORE ABOUT TRAUMA INFORMED PRACTICES

Meet Jodie Edith Finch

As a little girl, I felt things deeply. I was sensitive to the energies around me, always searching for safety, belonging, and understanding. Life handed me some incredibly painful experiences — abuse, abandonment, and unthinkable loss. As women, we mask — we show the outside world that everything is okay, when inside it’s a different story. For a long time, I coped the only way I knew how: by surviving. I coped by unhealthy drinking at a young age, unhealthy thought patterns, high functioning anxiety and not understanding healthy boundaries.

My healing began when I stopped judging my pain and started listening to it. Through a combination of hypnotherapy ,Neuro linguistic reprogramming and my deep belief in the power of the human mind, I began to heal. Now, I support others on their healing journeys — as a hypnotherapist, an integrative counsellor, a motivational speaker, and a guide.

It's not what's wrong with you — it's what happened to you.

That decision — the willingness to heal — changed my life forever.
