Rebecca grew up in beautiful Vancouver, and now resides in Richmond, B.C., Canada. She has a Bachelor of Kinesiology from the University of British Columbia (UBC) and in 2012, a change in professional direction occurred. She furthered her education to receive an Infant Development Certificate, also from UBC. For the past eight years, Rebecca has worked as an Infant Development Consultant, supporting parents and their infants, as a home-based visitor. She is trained in attachment-parenting and co-facilitates educational parent groups and works alongside families to help support them in their child's early development. Rebecca spends her free time shining light on the damaging impact of being raised by a parent with severe psychological issues that not only prevented secure attachment but lead to fear, self-doubt and insecurity that impacted all relationships. Unfortunately, the disturbing controlling relationship she had with her only parent led to multiple adverse childhood experiences, and a personality disorder diagnosis. She speaks openly about this diagnosis to demonstrate that with professional help, we can overcome our traumas to find self-worth. At this point one can truly grow up, and she feels lucky that it happened at the relatively young age of forty. When she is not sharing her story, Rebecca is mom to two daughters and one son, and enjoys waking up before the rest of the house :). Long walks and watching anything house-related on HGTV are also on the free-time list! By sharing her story, Rebecca hopes to inspire others to work through their trauma and free themselves.
