The teachings I use are experiential and impactful

resourcefulness of our heart and soul along with

our learning and changing brain.

My Informal Education:

As a curious scholar I also researched alternative esoteric ancient teachings to learn more insights on human development at the levels of heart and soul. The following are examples of how I enriched my ‘tool box’ of perception and understanding in addition to and in harmony with my academic knowledge on the learning brain.  

I completed training in the following domains:

  • Healing Touch

  • Reiki Karuna Master level 
  • Kabbalah studies 
  • Human Design analysis 
  • Astrology
  • Numerology
  • Soul Realignment
  • Hypnosis with the Canadian Association of Clinical Hypnotherapy
  • Ancient teachings of India in India
  • Vipassana 10 day silent retreat meditations
  • Self-study of Carl Jung approach to personal growth and Dream Analysis 
  • Archetypes teachings
  • And many other conferences and explorations of teachings about how to improve living, loving, and learning in a gentle way, yet reaching deep and creating long lasting changes.

My previous work experience includes: 

  • Elementary school teacher
  • School Psychologist at the Vancouver School Board
  • District Consultant on Learning Disabilities in British Columbia 
  • Research Assistant in the University of British Columbia
  • Independent Educational Consultant for students and parents
  • Holistic practitioner guiding adults in managing crises and transitions

If you are experiencing debilitating stress or burnout in your pursuit of accomplishing successes I can help by offering you profound teachings and meditative practices for experiencing clarity, peace, connectedness, and wholeness. 

The therapeutic teachings I offer are grounded in a blend of research-based and ancient wisdom that I have acquired through five academic degrees and continuously investigating ancient wisdom and practices of mastering the mind through meditations, alternative energy healing modalities, and soul searching methods. 

Mastering these eclectic teachings prepared me to skilfully and gently navigate the fine nuances and paradoxical complexes of our development, growth, change, and transformation as ambitious and aspiring individuals living within our specific social and cultural contexts.
