About Us:
What We Do:
Own Your Truth was founded in 2013 out of necessity for a different way to constructively process and understand Trauma. It was designed with accountability being the core factor in trauma rehabilitation in addition to exercise based problem-solving methods.
The objective of OYT is to thrive on encouraging, empowering, and assisting individuals to evolve whose lives have been interrupted by a traumatic event. It’s outlined to aid in learning self acceptance and understanding by reestablishing a new sense of self/life and purpose. This is done through alternative perspectives, accountability exercises, and internationally researched methods. Our practicing philosophy was piloted and used for over 15 years and was engineered via 12 years of comprehensive research spanning over 50 countries on 6 continents.
Since it’s inception OYT has helped many individuals process through traumas related to childhood abuse, sexual abuse, eating disorders, domestic violence, divorce & separation, human trafficking, gender transitioning, grief & loss, suicide survival, recovery from the pandemic, and a multitude of other socially inflicted traumas.

Mission:
Originally from NYC, as an expat from the US for over 10 years, I’ve spent time living in four different countries with a majority of my experience living in Seoul, South Korea.
In addition to my education and training, my expat experiences allow me to offer a unique perspective on expat life as well as affectively assist individuals in transitioning in and out of the distinctive lifestyle.
Having licensure and certifications in both the US and South Korea enables me to offer a textured and advanced global perspective on how to handle multifaceted cultural, social, and mental health concerns.
