The Family Inventory Project

A self-paced holistic program to understand your family history —and consciously shape your legacy.

  • You feel echoes of your family's patterns in your own life

  • You're curious about what you've inherited—gifts AND challenges

  • You have an incomplete family history and wonder if that matters (it doesn't—we work with what you have)

  • You want practical tools AND spiritual depth. You're ready to transform what was passed down to you from the generations gone by instead of just repeating it

Whether you have detailed family records or only fragments and feelings, this process honors what you carry.

This work is for you if:

Do you ever wonder why certain patterns keep showing up in your life—

the same relationship dynamics, the same health concerns, the same fears around money or success?

Maybe you've noticed that some struggles feel older than you are. Reactions that seem too big for the moment. Beliefs about yourself that you can't quite trace to your own experience. 

You didn't choose what was passed down. But you can choose what you carry forward. This is your ancestral inheritance. This is your legacy. 

You carry more than your grandmother's eyes or your father's laugh.

You carry patterns of resilience and wounds not your own.

Unspoken rules about love, money, and belonging. Gifts that no one named. Survival strategies passed down like heirlooms.

The Family Inventory Project helps you discover what you've inherited—and consciously choose what you'll keep, transform, and pass forward through intergenerational healing..

This isn't genealogy. It's not therapy. It's a living practice. It's an inner and ancestral journey to recognize, reclaim, and reweave the story of your family line.

The Family Inventory Project is a holistic program for discovering and transforming your ancestral legacy. More than genealogy, this is a living document of inherited patterns, gifts, challenges, and wisdom—helping you understand what you've carried, consciously choose what to keep, and create a legacy of awareness for generations to come.

Let Me Be Your Guide for Ancestral and Healing with the Family Inventory Project

I help people uncover and understand the stories that live within their lineage—the ones carried through generations that quietly shape our beliefs, behaviors, and sense of belonging.

This work is about more than tracing a family tree. It’s about illuminating the emotional and energetic inheritance that lives within us—the patterns of love and loss, silence and survival, that have been passed down and are ready to evolve through awareness.

My journey into this work began during a powerful period of awakening. I began to see how I had internalized my family’s wounds and carried them forward in my own emotional scarcity, constantly trying to rescue and repair what was never mine to fix. It was humbling and liberating to realize that what I had been holding didn’t entirely belong to me.

Through my training in depth and psychodynamic psychotherapy, I’ve seen again and again how early experiences—our parents’ and our own—create imprints that shape our adult lives in profound ways. After more than a decade in private practice, and countless conversations tracing clients’ early experiences and inherited patterns, I began to see clear threads emerge. No matter our story, so many of us carry the weight of what came before us—unhealed grief, fear, and unmet needs rippling through our lineage. These cycles reveal not only where we’ve come from but where our healing can begin.

Exploring epigenetics, alchemy, and mind-body teachings further affirmed what I was witnessing in practice: how much we are shaped by and can transform our inherited experience. I came to understand healing as a sacred process of integration—of transmuting unconscious patterns into conscious power. 

This program, The Family Inventory Project, is a culmination of those discoveries. It’s a synthesis of psychological insight, ancestral awareness, and practical reflection—designed to help you see your own family story with compassionate clarity.

By mapping your lineage—its values, wounds, and wisdom—you’ll uncover the deeper “why” beneath your habits, choices, and emotional imprints. You’ll begin to see what was carried forward for survival, and what you now have the freedom to transform.

This is your opportunity to reclaim your inheritance—not as a weight to carry, but as wisdom you’re ready to evolve into.

This program opened my eyes, my heart and my head to the powerful healing that can be done when you acknowledge and accept your inner child. It was one of the best things that I have done for myself in a very long time. Carla provided a safe, nurturing space for participants to share ideas and experiences and to learn and grow. I’m blown away by how much of a life changing experience this was for me.

What they’re saying about inner child work…

Overall, I loved the concepts that I was thinking about and accepting. Making time for the things that bring me actual joy and seeking them out…giving myself permission to explore it all. A breath of fresh air and a break from some of the usual thought patterns of the week. And it’s still going!”

- Krista

Inner child work has helped me find a lot of forgiveness for the negativity and neglect that I’ve shown myself over the years and it’s allowed me to connect more to my truest self - and comfort myself through difficult things in a way that feels valuable and necessary. My inner child guides my response to others, to things and to events and now that I’ve started this work, I’m able to check in with myself wholly and make healthier decisions.
