Are you someone who is...

​

  • Overgiving to others

  • A people-pleaser

  • Not used to voicing your opinions

  • Afraid to say "No."

  • Hyper independent

  • Or co-dependent 

  • Unclear about your sense of self 

  • Self-sabotaging

  • Always procrastinating

 

If so...

Then you've come to the right place!

Hi, I'm Marisa

I'm a certified trauma-informed coach and Neuro-Linguistics Programming practitioner, and trained in Root Cause Therapy. 

 

I grew up in Singapore in a dysfunctional family where my parents were very strict and conservative. My mother was an emotionally unavailable mother who was critical and abusive.

 

I had low self-esteem and very few boundaries; a chronic people-pleaser.

I didn't know how to stand up for myself, and I was in and out of toxic relationships and friendships, attracting narcissistic men and women.

Here's how I changed my life...

As a teenager up till my late 20s, I partied a lot and drank to numb and distract myself from my pain. 

 

At 30, during a detox program in Thailand with my husband, I was introduced to nutrition, yoga, meditation, and breathwork, leading me to train as a holistic health coach. 

 

I spent the next 10 years exploring different healing modalities: fasting, nutrition, yoga, breathwork, meditation, sound healing, shamanic ceremonies, ecstatic dance, 5 rhythms, coaching, neuro-linguistic programming, and root cause therapy. 

 

For 7 years, I was coaching women with their health challenges, but I began to see that all the women who came to me had a difficult relationship with their mothers, which was causing them to have low self-worth, leading them to burnout and develop unhealthy coping mechanisms. 

 

Now, I focus on supporting women to heal from their mother wound, childhood trauma and guide them to step into their authentic power. 

​

I'm also a mother of two, and together with my family, we live in Zurich, Switzerland.

Here's how I can help you...

  • Break free from past narratives without ever asking you to discuss your past in detail. 

  • Release emotions & limiting beliefs that have been holding you back

  • Rewrite new beliefs in your subconscious mind

  • Teach you how to regulate your nervous system and stop reacting to your triggers

  • Stop procrastinating and start working on your goals in small, bite-sized steps.

  • Focus on the present moment.

  • I use a unique blend of Somatic practices, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Root Cause Therapy
