Heart-to-Heart with Me: A Personalized Hour for You

This personalized one-on-one session offers a safe, compassionate space to explore whatever is on your heart and mind. Whether you’re navigating grief, working through emotional or energetic blocks, or seeking guidance to deepen your meditation practice, this hour is entirely dedicated to your healing and growth. It’s also a space to discuss spiritual and metaphysical topics, ask questions, or simply connect with someone who understands. Whether you’re seeking clarity, connection, or expansion, I’m here to help you on your journey.

I bring a wealth of experience and deep understanding to each session:

Expertise in Grief: With over a decade as a hospice spiritual care counselor and grief counselor, I understand the unique challenges faced by patients, family members, and caregivers. I’m well-versed in the nuances of anticipatory and complicated grief, providing insights and support tailored to your journey. My work with Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross during her end-of-life stages has profoundly shaped my approach to compassion and care.
A Personal Journey Through Loss: In my teens, I experienced profound personal losses, including the deaths of those closest to me through suicide, cancer, and sudden, unexpected events. These deeply painful experiences catapulted my spiritual journey as I searched for answers beyond what traditional religion could offer. This search has given me a personal and evolving understanding of grief that continues to unfold to this day, allowing me to empathize deeply and offer meaningful support to those navigating their own loss.
A Lifetime of Meditation and Spiritual Exploration: I was introduced to Transcendental Meditation at the age of 13, and it has been the foundation of my lifelong meditation practice. Over the years, my spiritual journey has evolved and deepened, incorporating Tibetan breathing techniques, alchemy, Kabbalah, and a triple major in religion, psychology, and biology. Initially planning to become a doctor, this academic foundation has given me a unique perspective on the interplay between science, spirituality, and the human mind. Raised Catholic, I’ve also delved deeply into personal theology, exploring and integrating diverse spiritual practices to create a holistic and layered approach to mindfulness, growth, and self-discovery.

Additionally, I studied and became a part of a Tibetan Sangha, immersing myself in Tibetan Buddhist practices. I also had the honor of contributing to the creation of the Buddhist park in Sedona, AZ, helping to establish a space for spiritual connection and community.

Interfaith Understanding and Reverence: Growing up, I was raised to appreciate all religions and encouraged to explore them from an early age. As one of the only Catholic families in Skokie (mostly jewish, our home’s Christmas tree became a source of fascination for the neighborhood, with people walking by to admire it. I also attended Hebrew school with my friends and learned extensively about Judaism, which sparked my interest in studying Kabbalah and the mysticism of their religion. Additionally, I spent eight years at Camp Chi, where I learned Jewish prayers and developed a deep reverence for their culture and traditions. These experiences enriched my spiritual perspective and fostered a profound respect for interfaith harmony.

Through these life experiences, I’ve developed a profound understanding of the unseen, energetic world, which is so much greater than the physical one we perceive with our eyes. I can help you hone your intuition and deepen your connection to this invisible realm, empowering you to navigate life with greater awareness, clarity, and trust in your inner guidance.

Explore Numerous Topics: If you’re looking to meet, understand, or integrate your higher self into your everyday life, I can guide you. Interested in learning how to use a pendulum or enhancing your practice with one? I can help. From discussing metaphysical topics and philosophies about life and the human form to diving deep into the mysteries of why we inhabit this planet, I offer a judgment-free space to explore it all. Want to learn more about crystals, how to use them, or meditate with them? This is your opportunity to connect with someone who will meet you wherever you are on your journey.

This session is a space for healing, discovery, and transformation. Let’s work together to rediscover your strength and help you move forward with a sense of empowerment and purpose.
