Hi! I’m Cina. I am a Licensed Psychotherapist, Mindfulness & Meditation Instructor, and Reiki Master. I received my Master’s Degree in Social Work (MSW) from Florida Atlantic University and have been continuing to expand my knowledge and skills in the realm of holistic healing for several years.
I utilize a blend of evidence-based and holistic wellness practices in order to facilitate deep and sustainable healing. I firmly believe that the capacity for well-being along with the wisdom to manage your life’s challenges already resides within you and will not take years of coaching or therapy to uncover!
Holistic healing means that I utilize a wide range of tools and strategies to address the problems presented on the levels of mind, body, and spirit. My specialties are working with binge eating disorder, body image issues, low self-esteem and self-worth, behavioral addictions, anxiety, and depression.
As a qualified Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) instructor, I have studied and received extensive training with elite teachers in mindfulness and meditation and continue to attend training, workshops, and silent meditation retreats. I have taught meditation to adolescents, seniors, adults, parents, millennials, school teachers, college students, medical professionals, and professional groups.
I love the work that I do and feel deeply honored and grateful to be in a position to help others through their healing processes. Rumi says to “keep your gaze on the bandaged place, that’s where the light enters you,” and I know this to be true on a soul-deep level. My own challenges have led me to higher ground and I now see them as gifts. Trauma, loss, anxiety, depression, binge eating, and other challenges can continue to destroy your life, or you can choose to see them as gateways to healing and let them transform you into a more peaceful and powerful version of yourself.
