#99 - We Have All Been Traumatised | Chats With Ryan
Ryan is Co-Founder and CEO at The Centre for Healing. His passion for helping people with Mental Illness and Addiction comes from his own pain.
Ryan suffered from anxiety for as long as he could remember and that manifested in many destructive patterns throughout his life, culminating in a hardcore drug addiction to Methamphetamine & GHB.
Whilst this addiction took everything material from his life, it was also Ryan's greatest blessing. He was forced to face up to his mental and emotional demons, and he not only overcame the addiction but also his anxiety to feel peace for the first time. This led him to completely immerse himself in how people end up in emotional pain and how it’s possible for anyone to be free from it. This led him to opening The Centre for Healing, to help people who have found themselves in the pain he once was.
He has successfully helped many people in getting past their Addictions & Mental Health issues through his experience, understanding and knowledge.
