About Mirin

I've always been a multi-passionate creative, fascinated by human behavior, the inner workings of the mind, and what makes relationships work. And I truly believe the world would be a better place if we could all learn to know ourselves intimately, love ourselves wholeheartedly, and express ourselves fearlessly.

Undiagnosed neurodivergent - maybe autistic, definitely highly-sensitive, and a full-blown empath

As a teen I struggled big time. This manifested as self-harm, two eating disorders, depression, a suicide attempt, and  a deep self-loathing. I now know that I was an undiagnosed neurodivergent - maybe autistic, definitely a highly-sensitive-person, and a full-blown empath. I felt too much, and was overwhelmed and exhausted from sensory issues and masking all day, crashing and burning when I got home. I couldn't understand why nobody else seemed to feel as much as I did, and it was as if everyone else got this manual for life and I didn't. And I loathed myself for it. This self-hatred made me more and more disconnected from myself yet I had these big emotions and I had no idea what they meant.  Traveling a lot as a child meant I was a master at fitting in so on the surface I smiled and followed all the social cultural rules. And although I could fit in anywhere, I never felt like there was anywhere I truly belonged.

Self-love, unshaming, reconnecting with my body, creativity, and learning to speak up and express myself were massive milestones in my journey

As modern western treatments failed me, I reached a tipping point and embarked on my personal journey of discovery and self-healing. Searching for that something more that I knew was missing. And so I dedicated my 20s to traveling the world, visiting 30+ countries, and learning from ancient and modern cultures and their alternative approaches to healing.

The work I do is deeply body based and centered around self-compassion. And yes it requires healing the past, but using that so we can create sustainable change in the present and future

In my offerings I draw from the ancient philosophies of yoga, Ayurveda, Chinese medicine, Shamanism, and a variety of energy healing techniques. These combined with modern psychotherapy, mindfulness, coaching, nervous system regulation, and creativity are what inform all of the services I provide. Thus, it is my mission to support others in becoming free from their doubt and inner critic, so that they can do the things that scare them and express their true authentic self, and create a deeply meaningful life. So that they can stop compromising themselves to make others comfortable, and be loved and accepted for who they truly are.

I'm a child at heart: I just want to play and explore, be silly and dance, and eat lots of chocolate

Fun Facts about me: I'm a chocolate addict, who loves fluffy things, and is obsessed with house plants, hiking  and the sea.  I spent my childhood in Ireland, Italy, France, and the UK and am 1/4 Vietnamese. I would rather be human than perfect.

My Approach

Where therapy meets coaching meets mindfulness meets bodywork meets art therapy meets somatics meets nervous system regulation meets transformation. The coaching work I do is deeply bod- based, as sustainable change happens effortlessly when you work with the body instead of only the mind. My coaching approach also involves a deep curiosity and a lot of self-love, unshaming, and integrating the parts of you that you've exiled and rejected. Nervous system regulation is a big part of this coaching process too, alongside trauma healing, creative practices, and rewriting limited beliefs. Most importantly I adapt my approach to suit the needs of each client, so every single coaching experience is different. And while we do trauma healing work, we focus on the present and future to create the change you seek in the here-and-now.
