From digital strategy to healing
For nearly two decades, I built my career in the fast-paced world of digital strategy and leadership across Lebanon and the GCC. I loved creating, leading and solving problems, but alongside that career there was always a deeper pull toward understanding people, emotions and what truly helps us feel better from within.
That path eventually led me to energy healing.
Today, I bring the same curiosity, discipline and intuition into my work as a certified Emotion Code, Body Code and Belief Code practitioner. After eight years of practice and working with more than 500 clients across 20+ countries, my purpose is simple: to help people gently uncover and release the emotional, energetic and subconscious layers that may be keeping them feeling stuck.
Why this work became personal
I discovered the Emotion Code during a period when I was asking deeper questions about my own life, wellbeing and purpose. What began as curiosity quickly became something much more personal: a way of understanding the emotional patterns we carry, often without realizing it.
Before I could truly hold space for others, I had to begin with myself.
Motherhood deepened that journey even further. It made me more aware of inherited patterns, subconscious beliefs and the cycles we can unknowingly pass from one generation to the next. It gave me an even stronger desire to do the inner work, not from fear, but from the intention to create something lighter for myself, my children and the generations that follow.
How I see emotional wellbeing
I believe emotions are not something to fear, suppress or judge. They are part of being human, and often they are showing us where something within us needs attention.
Sometimes an experience passes, but the emotional charge connected to it can remain. In the Emotion Code, we refer to these as trapped emotions: emotional energies that may continue to influence how we feel, react and move through life.
My approach is not about forcing anything to change. It is about listening to the body and subconscious, allowing them to guide the process, and gently releasing what is ready to be released.
For me, healing is about creating more space: space to feel lighter, respond differently, reconnect with yourself and move forward with greater ease.
What this work can support
You may come to this work because you feel anxious, emotionally heavy, stuck in repeating patterns, disconnected from yourself, or simply aware that something deeper is holding you back.
Sometimes the work is emotional. Sometimes the body points us toward an energetic imbalance. And sometimes the deepest layer is a subconscious belief, an old inner story about who you are, what you deserve, what is safe for you, or what is possible.
The intention is not simply to feel better for a moment. It is to help you release what no longer serves you, shift the patterns beneath the surface, and create space for a lighter and more aligned way of living.
