Just Me Authentically-Life After Trauma
Natural Healing by the Power of Touch
At Just Me Authentically, my journey began with something as simple, yet profound, as touch. While offering massage sessions, I discovered that people weren’t only seeking physical relief they were also longing for a safe space to release what weighed on them emotionally.
Often, as muscles were being relaxed, hearts began to open. People shared their stories, their losses, their struggles, and their hopes. A session would naturally evolve into more than massage it became a space for healing conversations. Clients would often walk away saying, “I feel like I just had counseling and a massage at the same time.”
This realization led to the creation of Natural Healing by the Power of Touch an approach that embraces both the physical and emotional sides of wellness. Sometimes, even without massage, simply sitting in conversation, asking the right questions, and allowing someone to unpack their burdens helps them feel lighter, freer, and renewed.
The gift is not forced, it’s natural. Whether in a therapy room, a community space, or even casual encounters, people have found themselves opening up, releasing pain, and leaving with a sense of healing. We believe this is God’s design: a natural ability to hold space for others, to listen, and to guide them toward wholeness.
Through Just Me Authentically and Natural Healing by the Power of Touch, which are one and the same, I am building a greater platform for people to find authentic healing. By linking the inner and outer self, we provide a safe space for individuals to unpack, heal, and begin again.

Meet the Founder – Just Me Authentically
Hi, I’m Phonan, a licensed Massage Therapist with over 10 years of experience in healing and wellness. I created Just Me Authentically as a space for transformation, not because healing is easy, but because it’s possible.
As a survivor of domestic violence, childhood trauma, failed marriages, and learning differences like dyslexia, I’ve walked the long, quiet road back to myself. I homeschooled my children through it all, rebuilt my life from the ground up, and now hold space for others to do the same.
This isn’t just a website. It’s a mirror, a guide, and a soft landing place for anyone learning to love themselves again.
