My Approach
My process is a non-clinical integrative approach based on my personal and lived experiences, as well as 30+ years of training in traditional teachings, Western psychology, and various healing modalities and traditions. My work is grounded in shamanic practices and the earth-honoring practice of Mayan spirituality. It also draws from my training in positive psychology, coaching, eco-psychology, somatic therapy, depth psychology, and expressive arts, as well as my personal practice in the Maya K'iche' spiritual lineage. I've developed my approach after holding over 600 group and individual preparation, navigation, and integration sessions and workshops.
I tailor each private session to the specific needs of my client. This can mean choosing and vetting the right retreat center, preparing for a solo journey, developing the skills to engage with inner parts during a session, or learning somatic techniques to work with difficult experiences. Above all, I help my clients transform insights from their journeys into positive, sustainable changes in their lives.
The way I hold groups is based on years of experimenting with different approaches. After holding hundreds of group sessions, I've developed an approach that is a combination of self-inquiry, group process, and mastermind groups. This provides my clients a safe space for inner inquiry and connection and allows them to implement practical changes in their lives that lead to sustainabel transformation.
