Trauma Awareness & Addiction Recovery Coaching
Your Healing Starts Here—From the Inside Out
At Grow From Within, we believe true healing begins at the core—within ourselves. Just like a tree, our growth is deeply connected to the roots of our experiences, and our branches extend into every aspect of our lives. Through compassionate guidance, holistic approaches, and deep inner work, we support individuals in healing past wounds, nurturing resilience, and cultivating personal growth.
The numbers
75%
Did you know that over 75% of people suffer from Complex Trauma without even knowing it?
It often hides behind anxiety, depression, chronic anger, people-pleasing, or codependency. Many think trauma only comes from major events, but complex trauma is built up over time—often through emotional neglect, inconsistent caregiving, or growing up without having your core needs met. Recognizing these patterns is the first step toward healing
97%
Even more shocking—97% of people who struggle with addiction also have Complex Trauma.
Addiction is often not the problem itself, but an attempt to soothe deep, unresolved pain.
Understanding Complex Trauma is the first step toward healing. You're not broken—you’re wounded. And you can heal.
98%
Complex Trauma isn't just about what happened to you—it's about what didn't happen.
It's rooted in your core emotional needs not being consistently met—like feeling safe, seen, soothed, and supported.
When those needs go unmet over time, it creates deep patterns of anxiety, depression, anger, people-pleasing, or addiction.

Somatic Healing
Somatic healing therapy is a body-centered approach that addresses the mind-body connection to promote healing, particularly for trauma and stress. It focuses on releasing stored tension and trauma from the body by increasing body awareness and using techniques like movement and breathwork.
Our Mission
Is to create a safe and transformative space where healing is not just about addressing symptoms but about understanding and healing the roots of trauma. When we heal from within, we create a ripple effect—strengthening our relationships, our communities, and the world around us.
At Grow From Within, we don’t just treat the surface—we nurture the whole tree. Because true growth happens when we heal from the foundations .

Testimonials
You simply must work with Morag. And I don't say this lightly.
In the year that I've known her, I've consistently been amazed by her capacity to show up with warmth, incredible insight, strength and grace, but more than anything, the deepest of authenticity.
I've been in the healing field for 17 years, always learning, always practicing, and I've never met anyone who embodies what she teaches as much as Morag. With her, there's zero nonsense, there's intimate knowledge of darkness and yet - or because of it - she knows all about love and how to hold a light for others. She will see you, the best version of you, and she will walk with you until you get there.
Oh - and she's also super fun
Basically, what are you waiting for?
Having tried therapy at different stages in my life, I had doubts when I signed up for REACT. Is this even going to work? But this was different. Going through the program, I saw a transformation in the pain I was carrying around and painful experiences and feelings that I’d never spoke about lost their power over me. Morag provided the education and the framework for me put words to emotions that I previously did not know how to express. She gave me tools to live a lighter and more emotionally sober life.
