What Clients Are Saying
People come to this work during times of transition, be that personal, relational, spiritual, or bodily. Many arrive carrying grief, anxiety, depression, nervous system overwhelm, questions about meaning, intimacy, or how to live with integrity in a world that feels increasingly unstable.
They are seekers. Nerds. Rabbithole thinkers. Queer, straight, non-binary, elders, millennials, Gen X, women+ and those who love them. People who value wisdom, humility, humor, and depth.
The reflections below come from individuals who have engaged with my work through shamanic mentoring, counseling, ceremony, or ritual. They speak to what it feels like to work with me with honesty, safety, inclusivity, and respect for self-agency.

“I am glad I found Afia in this last chapter of my life. Afia has helped me come home to myself. I am at peace.”
Gail, Mentoring Client“Afia listened beyond my words - she heard my heart and my energy. It was masterful, really. Her reflections were precise, healing, and often infused with the right touch of playfulness. Even months later, the session continues to guide me. It has been a lantern through my big emotions. It reconnected me to the deeper Self within that knows “All is well.””
Stephanny, Ceremony Client“Through my work with Afia, life is now exponentially easier to navigate. It’s as if I’ve gained a pair of truth goggles, discerning with greater clarity when and how to share what I see with the world.”
Mentorship Client“I serendipitously met Afia nearly a decade ago, and I’m blessed, highly favored, and eternally grateful for her presence on my path. If you’re considering working with her, allow me to reassure you: it’s infinitely worth the investment. My world has been illuminated by the light she radiates as she walks beside me, holding space and supporting my capacity to grow through even the most painful moments. She initiated my journey of compassionate self-discovery, and the transformation that followed has been profound. I can’t imagine what my life would look like had we never met. Simply kismet.
Mentorship Client“I’ve worked with many therapists and somatic practitioners over the last 15 years, but working with Afia was unique. She’s a grounded healer and channel, acting like a bridge between the Divine and the Human. I felt so witnessed and met in all of me.”
Ziona, Ceremony Client“It’s hard to find the words to describe my time with Afia….it’s as if she cleared the clutter between me and Spirit; I feel more connected and at peace in myself. She reminded me that the Divine is within me, and I need not look beyond myself to find it. What a gift to be treated as whole. What a gift to be seen as sovereign and holy. Afia was unwaveringly steady at the face of my pain. To my surprise, she helped me to clear residual trauma in my arms and neck and anchor in pleasure and joy. It felt sacred to hold grief and joy at the same time. She helped me bring those two together like I never have before.”
Debbie, Ceremony ClientAfter the tragic death of a dear friend, I came to Afia to do a ceremonial session. Afia created a space that allowed me to move beneath my heartbreak and access the deeper wisdom of my body. That in and of itself was so healing, as grief is an emotion that often puts my body into alarm. It can be flooding, and I shut down. But with her presence and guidance, I was able to soften and move into my grief with a lot of grace and sovereignty. I felt powerful, even while sitting with an emotion that historically leaves me feeling impotent.
