Holistic Health/Energy Practioner/Spiritual Coach helping people with chronic health conditions to improve symptom management and quality of life through alternative healing when traditional medicine has failed them. My name is Rachel Yugen, and I am and Empowerment Coach with a passion for helping women who have been involved in abusive and/or toxic relationships that have damaged their sense of self, self esteem, and their spirit. Relationships that have damaged them physically, and/or emotionally and left them questioning their worth, purpose, and their ability to love themselves fully and be loved by others in this same way. I have a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, and was a Mental Health casemanager for 14 years that has worked with adults diagnosed with Chronic lifelong mental health diagnoses, Trauma and Abuse Survivors, Substance Abuse disorders, and have had extensive specialized trainings in all these areas through the Department of Mental Health. In addition, I am also the survivor of a Toxic and Emotionally Abusive relationship and have struggled with Depression, Chronic Anxiety, and a Dysregulated Nervous System and have a personal experience and understanding of these issues. After recovering from my own experience of being in a !3 year emotionally abusive and toxic relationship, it took me several years to heal and work through my emotions, and the damage it did to my sense of who I was, my self esteem, my chronically overworked nervous system, and my damaged heart and spirit. Spirituality and incorporating spiritual practice in my life was a major part of the healing process for me, and has enabled me to forgive and gave me back the peace in my soul that had been lost for a long time. After going through that experience, and having my background in psychology and mental health, I felt called to help other women who have also gone through a similar experience, and are struggling to heal and recover, and get their lives back, and that is what led me to develop my coaching program. I hope to use my education, background and training, coupled with my own personal experience, to help women to recover, heal, and move on to a new chapter in their lives in which they understand who they are, reclaim their power and strength, and know that they are meant to be loved and cherished both within themselves and from the other relationships with people in their lives.
