inner resourcing for courageous humans who are ready to transform old patterns & unlock new levels of equnimity & intimacy their life and relationships

If you’re like many of the people I work with, even though you’ve done some personal development and you’ve achieved beautiful things, you are exhausted from doing all this work.

You experience overwhelm and confusion with where you are vs where you want to be.
Maybe you doubt you’ll ever create the vision of health, happiness and fulfillment that you dream of.
You don’t believe that you have to sacrifice one area of your life for another, but it seems impossible.

I feel you. I’ve been there. And I know how hard it could be.
I've personally been through many transformations and crossroads in life, and I've supported countless individuals and couples creating and building towards their own definition of wellbeing.

What is blocking your from more love and aliveness?

You don’t need to push yourself harder.

You need more inner resource so it’s easier for you to do hard things.

That’s why I offer services to help you unblock what’s in your way of staying present and graceful with what life has in store for you.

We don’t do traditional talk therapy that’s used as a crutch here.
Instead, we have real talks on what is actually happening for you.
We slow down to listen to the unspoken voices in your body that carry wisdom and
equip you with practical tools so that you can be the lover, leader, parent, creator, visionary, cycle-breaker, trailblazer you’ve always desired to be.

You might surprise yourself.

Ready to for your breakthrough? Start here with a complimentary 30 min call with me to see if we are a good fit.

Hey there, I am Xuel. I am a Psychotherapist-Healer, Intuitive Guide, Facilitator, Writer and More.

My own healing journey led me to many roads less taken, through which I found balance to exist as a complex human in this strange modern world. That’s why as a therapist, I offer my skills to help you discover what you want and need — especially from parts that are often ignored, judged or different from conventional opinions.

You are not a normal human being and I am not your normal therapist. The support I offer my clients is alchemical  – I walk alongside with a light as you integrate fragmented pieces of self so that you feel safe to move through the darkest places. I also get real with you. I validate and help you actually practice what you already know that has not been right in your body.


FUN FACT: My name "Xuel" is pronounced as "sh-well". I gave myself this name based on my Bazi, a Chinese astrological divination system.
