Your symptom whisperer.

Who am I? What a question. 

If you asked me when I was seven, my cheeks would burn as red as my hair and I'd quietly say, "I'm Paula". You'd ask me to repeat myself, or get my name wrong because I said it so quietly. I probably would defer most questions to my mom or have told you who I was in relation to my three siblings (third born).

If you asked me when I was 13, my cheeks would have been equally as red but I would have done my best to say my name with pride. I might tell you I'm creative; I like to make my own jewelry and bake, I like biking around with my friends and being in the local church musicals (as the chorus, I'm in it for the friendships).

At 15, you’d see some confidence shine, but also an abundance of self-judgment. You’d see me as responsible, someone who over-cares for her friends problems, the therapist of the group. A lot of anxiety, starting to wonder about her sensitivies. You’d hear me blathering about becoming a homeopath if you asked the right questions.

By 21, on the outside, you’d see someone following their dreams and taking big leaps. Moving to Toronto to become a homeopath-finally! But on the inside, a different story. One of collapse and self-suppression, of turning away from who I was and putting on a facade of “okayness”.

If you asked me to write this page at 25, and you did because that’s when I started this business, I’d tell you the facts.

What I wouldn’t haven told you is how unqualified I felt, how many hours is pour into self-doubt, and how hard I was trying to find my own authenticity while preaching it's importance to the world.

Between the lines: I’m on this journey too. I haven’t figured it out yet, but I’m working on it.

Today, at 31, I’m still working on it. But the ease of which this about me page comes about suggests I’ve come a long way.

I can tell you the facts - I can tell you the titles, I'm a homeopath and a mother and a wife and a daughter and a sister.

I’m a crafter and a baker and a walker and a camper. I’m a laze on the couch watching a good sitcom-er, a hermit and a homebody, an overthinker and collector of ideas.

 

I’m a master pattern finder. I’m still an over-giver, a worrier, a and my off switch works as well as my dachshund's when he's got accidental access to a garbage can.

I’m a 2/4 manifesting generator, a Leo sun-Aries moon-scorpio rising, a 9 life path number. Those things have helped me see myself, sometimes they help other people see me too.

I can tell you all the identifiers that help you categorize me in your mind - but what I really want you to know?

That homeopathy has been the greatest catalyst for coming home to myself and remembering who I am.

Me as a homeopath

I got into homeopathy because I saw how allopathy absolutely fucked people up, pardon the language - it’s needed to properly express the damage the allopaths do.

I saw it in loved ones, particularly through mental health. I struggled with anxiety, in hindsight, from a very young age. You could slap “highly sensitive” on me, always attuned to others’ needs and emotions. So when homeopathy landed in my life and my first homeopath made me feel like every bit of my expression was important.

I was enthralled by her giant books, her odd questions, and the way she made me feel seen. Bonus points: it worked.

My journey of becoming a homeopathy has mirrored and catalysed my journey of becoming Paula.

Sprinkled along side the life events of traumatic relationships, meeting my now husband, starting my business, the insanity of Covid, major health issues, having my sweet baby (by emergency c-section) - this journey is not for the faint of heart.

I am a testament to the potency of homeopathy and I infuse that into my work everyday.

My flavour of homeopathy has classical foundations from my time at the Canadian college of homeopathic medicine, which I’ve then built upon and burst beyond with integration from Hypnosis, human design, poly vagal theory, parts work, journalling practices, intuitive homeopathy, and so much more that doesn’t have a proper title.

Today I focus on what I’ve learned and what I needed. My modus iperandi is to guide you back to you - there’s plenty of people out there telling you who to be and how to be, I hope to not be one of them.

My goal is to remind you of who you are, that you can trust in her deeply, and that your body and vital force has all the wisdom it needs in order to heal.

About that eord, heal, I’m a purist. The dictionary say:

To heal; to become whole.

And that’s our orientation. No getting rid of, no fixing, no cut burn kill. We’re bringing you home and reconnection with the parts of you that have long been abandoned, shamed, exiled or hidden.

How I work:

My practice is ever evolving but at this point I lean heavily on my intuition, which is informed and supported by my knowledge and wisdom of homeopathy.

When we work together, I’m on a quest for patterns - looking for the common threads of expression, points of major disconnection from self, and mapping out timelines of disease.

I do not shy away from ancestral influences and the recognition that we carry, often, what wasn’t ours to begin with.

I place great importance on the unseen, unheard, unexpressed.

My goal isn’t to find a remedy to fix you. It’s to give you space to tell your story, to witness and be witnessed. I believe the quality of your relationship with yourself, your symptoms, and your vital force is the most important factor in healing.

this is a space where you get to turn towards yourself. All of you is welcome here (people love to tell me their secrets, I think it’s my scorpio rising). I’ll do my best to be witness, to mirror back the patterns I observe, and connect with the remedies that can best carry your journey forward.

but remember, it’s not the remedy doing the healing, it’s all you.
