What I am! A kind, compassionate, empathic, non-judgmental person, experienced in a wide range of metaphysical schools of thought, here to listen to what you’re going through and reflect back words of empowerment and encouragement. I am here to act as a mirror to help you recognize your strengths and gifts, reorient yourself in moments of confusion or feeling stuck, or to find grounding in this specific moment of life. Whatever you’re bringing in to talk about won’t be too weird for me, be it aliens, spirits, occult practices, bizarre dreams, spirit encounters, multiverse-jumping or psychedelic trips that upended your whole view of reality. While I have experience in and familiarity with many metaphysical schools of thought, I do not work from one particular modality or adhere to any specific esoteric system. I have developed a strong intuition and a trusting relationship with my ancestors and spirit guides, and I can typically meet my clients right where they are, using whatever framework under which they operate.

What I am not! I am not a licensed therapist, doctor or a psychologist, but rather someone who has taken a lifelong personal interest in educating myself on these subjects because of my passion for helping people progress and grow through a variety of tools available to us in this life. I am not an energy healer and crystals are legit but I personally don’t work with them. I am not a psychedelic therapist, and I do not prescribe or provide substances of any kind in my practice. I am not an astrologer, but I have a working knowledge of astrology and working with planetary energies. I am not a career, business or relationship coach, though our work may positively influence those areas of your life.

Religious Deprogramming: For those in the process of deconstructing their faith—whether leaving Christianity, questioning long-held religious beliefs, or untangling the effects of spiritual brainwashing—I offer a grounded, non-judgmental space to explore what comes next. Having gone through my own journey of deconstruction, I understand the challenges of unlearning ingrained beliefs while still feeling drawn to something mystical, expansive, and unexplainable. My work in this area includes helping you process religious trauma, redefine spirituality on your own terms, and cultivate practices that resonate with your evolving worldview. Through reflection and open conversation, we work together to shed the fear-based narratives that no longer serve you and step into a more authentic, liberated way of being.

I do not accept barters or energy exchanges in lieu of payment.
