For over a decade, I have been teaching Human Sexuality courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels, while concurrently facilitating healthy sexuality for my clients in my private practice.
I am the Co-Founder of Bamboo Garden Wellness Center and I also serve as lead faculty at the California Institute for Human Science Graduate School and Research Center in Encinitas, California. My research here focuses on gender studies, human sexuality, and sexual healing.
Sometimes during a session, I will intuitively feel or think something that may be useful to explore. At such times, I share my insights and we discuss how and why this might be relevant to you on your healing journey. I encourage my clients to access their own intuitive inner guidance, as these insights are usually highly valuable in the healing process.
I also create and present workshops on human sexuality, sexual healing, and sacred sexuality for public and private organizations and academic conferences. I love being a sex educator and helping people to achieve happy, healthy sexuality.
I hope to meet you soon, whether you want to experience healing via my Healthy Sexuality Program, or if you'd like to host a workshop, or if we meet socially and you would just like to say hello.

I have been studying and practicing spiritual counseling for over 30 years with clients worldwide. I invented a form of energy medicine called Integrative Chakra Therapy® (ICT). I use it extensively in my practice and have been teaching ICT through my Light News Institute school of energy medicine/energy psychology for over 22 years and have over 500 students and graduate practitioners.
I’ve been teaching psychology of the chakras, toward a super consciousness, past lives karma and reincarnation for many years as lead faculty at the California Institute for Human Science (CIHS) Graduate School and Research Center in Encinitas, California www.cihs.edu and am Chair of the Board of Trustees.
Healing at the level of the Chakras (affects the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual archetypes of the Whole Human Being) is the most powerful form of healing that I know. Distance is no factor, as I’ve clients worldwide and have been most interesting in the Self-empowerment and spiritual awakening of the individual. Along with spiritual counseling, ICT facilitates physical healing and inner growth.
I’m the author of books on chakra psychology, a meditation CD, and have had my own radio show “Light News Radio” for many years.
Many workshops are created and held online and in-person, including flower readings, past lives karma and reincarnation, the Mayan Calendar, nature spirits, and more. Bamboo Garden Wellness Center is a place of education as well as a nurturing oasis of healing.
My wife Michelle and I are co-founders of the Bamboo Garden Wellness Center in Encinitas, California, a holistic integrative multi-discipline center based in body-mind-spirit.
Always, I’m looking for that which raises you to higher states of awareness, including the release of infirmities, limiting beliefs and karmas. I’m here as a conduit for your self-healing, for the Divine blueprint is already within you.

I bridge the gap for clients interested in combining traditional and spiritual interventions for healing and growth.
My #1 goal is to help people connect with how beautiful they are at their CORE so they can create their lives from an empowered place of being, belonging, and self-worth.
Integrative coaching uncovers what the client senses but may not be consciously aware of. By teaching you how to connect to your body, soul, and deepest wisdom, we unearth what is hidden beneath the surface, revealing sub-conscious negative belief systems, conditioning, and patterning, as well as suppressed emotions that are having a negative impact on your life. We access the unconscious influences, make them conscious and compassionately process them in the here and now.

I have been on a spiritual journey for many years, starting with visitations from those who crossed over and later in life realizing with my father’s transition “it wasn’t my imagination”, spirits are real! Shortly after my intracranial hematoma I desired to understand more of the Mind – Body connection, healing and “Why are we here?”. I sought out individuals I could study with; Mayan Elders, Shaman, Spiritual leaders / teachers, leaving me yearning for more. In 2022 I seized the challenge to explore the Mind – Body deeper through hypnosis with the Horizon Center Hypnotherapy School. Today I can say, I feel well rounded, still on a journey, though now with my clients.
Deirdre is a member of the International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association, the Canadian Association for Integrative and Energy Therapies as well as the Canadian Association of Counselling Hypnotherapy and Educators

A natural born healer, Sofia grew up in a healing household in St. Petersburg, Russia and was deeply inspired to care for people by her mother, a medical doctor.
She continued following her natural call to healing and became certified in massage therapy and also became a certified Ayurvedic Wellness Counselor by the esteemed Kerala Ayurveda Academy. Fate then led her to a chance encounter with Vaidya Rama Kant Mishra, a world-renowned Ayurvedic doctor who took her under his wing as a special intern in his office. There she sat side by side with Vaidya and learned the intricacies of Ayurveda and how to look at the whole person in order to help treat their conditions. She learned the importance of proper diet, exercise and cultivating good habits for healing and optimum health.
Her hunger for diving deeper into healing philosophy lead her to her ultimate destiny, Reflexology. Once Sofia discovered the deep healing power of Reflexology, she knew that this was a path she had to continue on. She became certified by the American Academy of Reflexology in Advanced Hand, Foot, Face and Scalp Reflexology and has since helped numerous people restore their health and bring relief from cervical and spinal pain, sciatica, headaches, digestive issues, infertility, and more. Sofia is an expert in reading clients’ feet and ears in order to develop a specific roadmap on their journey to healthier living, and nothing brings her more pleasure than meeting new clients who share her energy and enthusiasm for healthy living. Her success with clients has been staggering and has made her one of the most sought-after Reflexologists in Los Angeles, CA.
