Spiritual Modalities

Cultivating Intuition

When we assert intuition, we are therefore like the starry-night: we gaze at the world through a thousand eyes.” - Clarissa Pinkola Estés

You are drawn to therapy that reaches beyond words — the kind that touches something subtle, symbolic and deeply alive. You may have encountered this through movement, song, meditation, plant medicine journeys, tarot or intuitive readings — moments where you felt seen in a way that reorganized you from the inside out. And yet, when you brought these experiences into therapy, they may not have been fully welcomed or understood.

My work is rooted in honoring these ways of knowing without leaving the body, the nervous system, or psychological integration behind. I am trained to work at the intersection of intuition and clinical depth — integrating complementary methods such as astrology, reiki, energetic protection and ancestral healing in ways that support embodiment, safety and coherence. The intention is not transcendence, but return: to your authentic Self, your intuition, and your capacity to live from a grounded inner knowing.

Spirituality can be a profound resource when we are moving through darkness — not as a way to bypass difficult feelings, but to orient us toward inner guidance and meaning.

My work is grounded in evidence-based trauma therapy that invites in imaginal, symbolic and energetic layers. Internal Family Systems brings us into relationship with the Self and our parts. Brainspotting supports nervous system regulation and access to the subconscious where trauma patterns are held. Together, these approaches help us to alchemize trauma into a renewed sense of dignity, wholeness and power.

We may incorporate energy work to support boundary repair and release, astrology to provide context and meaning, or ancestral healing to address generational patterns. These elements are always optional and used in service of integration — helping what has been fragmented come back into relationship.

The areas of intuitive development:

Astrological Counseling

Energetic Boundaries

Ancestral Healing

Reiki-assisted therapy

Astrology offers a symbolic language for understanding timing, temperament and inner dynamics. Through an IFS-informed lens, we explore how different pats of you may resonate with planetary themes in your natal chart. Transits can illuminate moments of activation, growth or contraction, helping us to bring curiosity and compassion to what is arising. This work supports insight without determinism — astrology as reflection, not prescription.

Astrological Counseling

Some patterns did not begin with you. In IFS work, these may appear as legacy burdens - emotional, behavioral or energetic imprints carried across generations. We approach ancestral material with respect and discernment, allowing what does not belong to you to be acknowledged and released, while strengthening your connection to internal and ancestral resources.

Ancestral Healing

For highly sensitive and empathic people, boundaries are often energetic before they are verbal. Without conscious containment, empathy can become porous and overwhelming. We explore how parts of you might take on other’s emotions, responsibility, or pain — and work to restore a felt sense of separation and choice. This includes grounding practices and energetic maintenance that support being connected without being depleted.

Energetic Boundaries

Reiki-assisted Therapy

Reiki can gently support nervous system regulation by inviting the body into a parasympathetic state. When trauma processing feels activating, this work may help restore steadiness and containment. Used intentionally, reiki can assist in releasing energetic residue and strengthening internal boundaries. It also can help parts experience a felt sense of Self Energy during IFS therapy.
