AWAKEN YOUR INNER MUSE
Empowering Transformation Through Holistic Alchemy
Private tailored guidance and retreats for those ready to stop losing themselves in others—and come home to their own soul. Your journey toward authentic well-being—emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
The Alchemist Muse is a sacred space where Western psychology, intuitive energy healing, and ancient wisdom meet - a space where you can finally breathe deeply and exhale all that you’ve been carrying.
Together, we work holistically—addressing the emotional, energetic, and spiritual roots of your challenges.
Think of it as tending to a garden, where we gently nurture the soil, prune the excess, and allow your true self to flourish. This is your turning point. No more hiding. No more shrinking. No more overgiving. No more hustling for worth.
Just truth, healing, and radical homecoming.
Come as you are. - tender, tired, or tangled. Leave as who you were always meant to be. Let’s begin your soul return.
THE VISION
Healing yourself is an act of deep, profound love.
Imagine a world where every individual is empowered to find and live their true, authentic self; a world where healing becomes a natural part of growth, self-discovery, and self-love.
I support individuals on their healing journey by guiding them through personalized practices that restore and harmonize the body, mind, and spirit.
My holistic work combines healing techniques, self-awareness tools, and emotional growth support to remove blockages and enhance the natural state of well-being.
Through cultivating a deep connection to ourselves and each other, rooted in truth and authenticity, we aim to contribute to a global shift in emotional well-being, mental clarity, and spiritual peace.
By honoring the journey of becoming, we facilitate a life of wholeness, purpose, and inner peace.
My mission is to guide you home to yourself.

• Channeling spiritual insight through personalized guided meditations, energy work (such as Reiki and channeled guidance), sacred sound, intuitive dreamwork, and light language to support deep inner knowing and healing.

OUR STORY
The silent seed for The Alchemist Muse was planted in 2015, during a time when I was still setting fire and walking through the ashes of my own healing. I searched for light in places that governed darkness or offered only surface solutions—struggling not only to find the right support, but to summon the courage to face and embrace the shadows and trauma I carried.
I felt unseen, unsupported by the systems designed to help, and painfully aware that true healing was never about numbing the pain or fixing symptoms—it was about meeting the root. Depression, anxiety, and disconnection became my messengers. And so began a long and stony inward path: one of unraveling grief, meeting my tormentors not with rage, but with radical acceptance—and eventually, with deep gratitude.
I abandoned myself countless times before I could finally hear the call of the child within—the one who bore the wound of abandonment, and yet, held the key to my becoming. That key unlocked my purpose.
Through nearly a decade of deep inner work with teachers, mentors and elders across the world—and initiations in Reiki, Yoga, Meditation, Herbalism, Shamanic Counseling, Somatic Therapy, Aromatherapy, Access Bars, and EFT Tapping—I came to understand my calling: to guide others back to themselves and to serve as a Threshold Keeper.
I was born into this life to walk others through sacred transitions—from wounding to healing, from forgetting to remembering.
With deep intuitive gifts and psychic sight, I serve as a portal, helping others step fully into their own light.
I help unlock the sacred memory of the soul, reclaim the parts you've disowned, and guide you in transmuting wounds into wisdom. Beneath the pain, roles, and expectations lives a truth—whole, radiant, and untouched—and I am here to help you remember it.
My purpose is to awaken remembrance, illuminate truth, and hold space for lasting transformation. I blend ancient wisdom with modern modalities to create a grounded, holistic, and heart-centered path home.

THE TRUE MEANING OF HEALING
True healing does not come from outside—it is a journey that begins within. Across ancient traditions, the healer’s role was never to "fix" but to guide, empower, and illuminate the path to self-restoration. Throughout history, healers have been seen as intermediaries between the physical and the divine, using wisdom, natural remedies, and energy work to facilitate healing. They serve as a bridge between the seen and unseen, helping to remove the blocks that prevent the body, mind, and spirit from returning to their natural state of balance.
Healing is not linear—it is cyclical, layered, and deeply personal. It asks for patience, presence, and willingness to feel. It’s not about achieving perfection, but about remembering wholeness. True healing honors the intelligence of the body, the memory of the soul, and the sacred timing of the heart.
Since the dawn of time this wisdom has been understood and honored by various ancient cultures:
-
In Sanskrit, Ayurveda (Ancient India): A healer was called a Vaidya (वैद्य), one who understood the balance of the three Doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and restored health by aligning the body with cosmic energy.
-
In Buddhism, the term Kalyāṇa-mitta (Pali: "spiritual friend") is often used to describe a guide on the path to enlightenment rather than a savior. A Kalyāṇa-mitta supports others in their spiritual growth through wisdom and compassionate guidance, rather than "healing" in the conventional sense.
-
In Vajrayana Buddhism, a guru (or lama in Tibetan) guides students to awaken their inner wisdom, but enlightenment remains their own journey.
-
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (Ancient China): Healers were known as Shen Yi (医生) (divine physicians) or Da Yi (great doctors), those who harmonized Qi (life force) through acupuncture, herbs, and energy work.
-
In Taoism, the Zhenren (真人) or "true person" aligns with nature’s flow rather than forcing healing.
-
In Hippocratic Tradition (Ancient Greece) (θεραπευτής): A healer was one who worked with the body's natural ability to restore itself, following the principle of Vis Medicatrix Naturae—the healing power of nature.
-
In Latin: Medicus – Root of "medicine," meaning one who restores balance.
-
Shamanic Traditions (Indigenous & Tribal Cultures): Healers were the medicine men/women, shamans, or sages (curanderos) who communicated with the spirit world to bring healing, using rituals, plant medicine, and energetic realignment.
-
In Ancient Egyptian Texts: Healers, known as Sunu, combined herbal medicine, prayers, and sacred symbols to treat the body and soul, often working within temple healing centers.
-
In Hebrew: Rophe (רופא) – Meaning healer or one who brings restoration.
-
In Arabic: Al-Hakim (الحكيم) – Meaning "the wise one," often referring to a healer who also imparts wisdom.
These ancient understandings, which form the foundation of this work, honor healing as an inner awakening—not something bestowed, but something remembered. Every offering and space created here is rooted in this philosophy: a sacred, trustworthy container that gently supports and empowers each individual to reconnect with their own innate ability to heal, transform, and reclaim the sacred power within.
