What Forward-Facing ® Means to Poy:
Personally, the Forward-Facing ® approach has given me something that years of rehab and therapy was not able to, the ability to be comfortable with my own body, the felt sense of safety that I was longing for a very long time and the ability to be alone with my thoughts.
This had vastly improved the quality of my life and my practice. The Forward-Facing ® Approach not only helps my clients with trauma toxic stress and history of adversities but also those who wants more in life. Forward-Facing ® brought us Home.
Coaching with Poy:
A CONDUIT OF CHANGE Poy de Lara is the founder and executive coach of JUAN LIFE GROUP, a support group that aims to build a community that is focused on SELF-IMPROVEMENT and RECIPROCAL ALTRUISM and believes that INVOLVEMENT and MEANINGFUL CONNECTION in its true form could help alleviate the incidents of suicide, depression, addiction and other behavioral disorders. This group then gave birth to UDRIVE GROUP OF COACHES, a group of like minded individuals whose mission is to provide a holistic approach to mental health care and recovery by offering an individualized, comprehensive, accessible, and affordable array of coaching services for everyone.
