Machu Picchu is a sacred site of peace and power. It is one of the 9 sacred mountains, the Apus of Peru, from which I source the healing wisdom of the ancient linage of the Laika Shamans, the Earth Keepers. The moment I stepped onto Machu Picchu, I felt the vibrant healing energy. I felt like I’d collided with my destiny, which was to become a Shamanic Healer.
We are not victims of our lives!
I believe you can heal and transform your life by changing the way you perceive it! I have seen it happen and experienced it myself.
When you change the relationship with the things that happen to you, you can change your life
Utilizing Shamanic techniques in energy healing and the principles of transformational coaching, I can help you release the old limiting toxic stories that are holding you hostage and keeping you from becoming who you know you can be.
Whenever we suffer a trauma, either physically or emotionally, the information is stored in our energy body, as an imprint, and becomes toxic, blocking the natural flow that enables good health and good feeling.
I listen deeply and track the energy flow in the body. Using Ancient Peruvian Shamanic Healing Techniques, we work to release and rebalance energy where imprints, toxic energy, and soul wounds are held in the body. And I work with you through techniques in soul coaching to map a whole-healed path forward.
Shamanic Energy work is for you if:
- You are bright and successful…you have all the trappings of a happy life. But, you have a sense that there’s more out there for you professionally, spiritually or personally.
- There’s something standing in the way.
- You’ve been bullied. You’ve suffered abuse because of your sexuality. There’s a place deep inside that’s still profoundly wounded because of that suffering. You aren’t sure how it’s holding you back, but it is.
- You thought you were over it.
- But, now, more than anything, you’d just like to move past it. By any means necessary.
- You’ve tried therapy and 12-Step programs.
- You’re ready for something new. Ready for something different. Ready for a profound shift.
- Ready to remove the toxic energy associated with that past trauma, once and for all.
If you’re experiencing:
- Addictions (sex, drugs, alcohol, food, exercise etc), intimacy issues, sexual compulsion, identity issues, low motivation, or actual physical illness.
If you’re feeling:
- Powerless and lonely, lacking self-worth, fragmented on soul-level, numb, disenfranchised, spiritually bankrupt and disconnected from your higher-power.
- It could be evidence of an energetic imbalance that needs reconciliation
My present life with my husband David an our dog Asbury
My Story:
I have been healed by the work I do today. That is not an overstatement.
As a child, I was horribly bullied, suffered sexual abuse and my home-life provided no refuge. I coped by putting forth a version of myself that I hoped would be acceptable to the world. The beautiful (and powerful) the tender, sensitive side of my self was replaced by shame and sense that I was different. The shame only invited more bullying.
When I was 17, my father was killed in a car accident, my family fell apart. By the time I was in college, I was using alcohol, sex and other destructive behaviors to numb out.
I was lost and exhausted.
At 30, I found my husband David, but also found out I was HIV-positive, at a time (1993) when HIV was a death sentence.
After my initial shock and panic, I got an unequivocal sign from the universe that it was not my time. I had work to do.
A few years later in 1996, I was one of the first people accepted into the first protease inhibitors clinical trains (the first drugs that controlled HIV) which literally brought my health back.
However, I was still living unconsciously wounded now alcoholic and sexually-addicted numb to my real feelings and the trauma of the past. No one would have known though. I’d created the illusion of a successful corporate executive with a gym body, whom anyone would say was a happy, well adjusted gay man in NYC. Behind closed doors, my life was falling apart.
I engaged in years and years of therapy and 12-step programs, rehashing the same old stories over and over again, which left me feeling stuck in my wounds.
Then, I tried a radically different approach, Shamanic Energy Healing.
I experienced tremendous healing and transformation…my wounds transformed into my power, my medicine. I moved into a place of joy, wholeness, and well-being. I was able to step fully into my power, purpose and create the life of my dreams.
Once I let go of the old wounded stories, I found the courage to leave my corporate job and was now available to answer my calling as a Shamanic Healer, Soul Coach and Teacher. My health improved dramatically, my relationship deepened, my addictions loosened their grip and I found my purpose in the world. Most importantly I found myself. I know who I am. And, for the first time in my life….I love myself!
Experience & Education
I spent the past 10 years healing myself from many soul wounds suffered from years of bullying, trauma, sexual abuse, addictions and HIV exposure. I have traveled extensively to places like Peru, Africa, Mexico, Thailand, Australia and Columbia fascinated with indigenous cultures’ healing wisdom. I learned their ways to heal myself.
In 2012, I left the corporate world to formally study and train in the tradition and linage of the Q’ero Shaman’s ” Pacos” of the high mountains in Peru to become a Shamanic Energy Practitioner through the Four Winds Society. I made a vow to the Earth Keepers linage and Spirit that in return for the healing wisdom-medicine, I would bring the ancient teachings to the modern world to help people in need of healing their live….this is my sacred commitment.

Saying “yes” to this healing work wasn’t easy. Committing to the work was scary. But, once I made the commitment, the work was a beautiful journey into reclaiming my life and moving into my purpose.
Moving forward. I left my corporate job to follow my calling as a life coach, shamanic healer, teacher, wisdom keeper and inspirational speaker.
