Are you a woman recovering from loss or trauma?

I’ve been where you are . . . and can help you reconnect with joy and inner peace.

If you’re a woman who has endured deep grief, loss, or trauma, I offer unique programs for healing those often-unbearable feelings, and getting off the roller coaster of emotional pain.

A series of life-shattering losses – my first husband, my son, and my life savings – led me to this work. In the years of healing that followed, I discovered resilience, self-love, and the profound miracles of transformation.

Over the past decade I’ve helped hundreds of clients not only reclaim their lives after great loss, but also learn how to use energy sensitivity as the gift it can be.

My approach incorporates spiritual and real-world ways of healing the mind and body, including Reiki, Emotional Freedom Technique (aka “Tapping”), breathwork, meditation, and visualizations. My signature “From Heartbreak to Happiness®” program combines cognitive healing processes with proven holistic methods for healing grief.

You deserve a compassionate guide on this journey

My role above all is to make you feel safe and supported by someone who has been where you are. What you’re feeling is normal … but not insurmountable. Know that wherever you are in your recovery is where you’re supposed to be, and that you are whole, complete and perfect just the way you are.

Life after loss or hardship can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to define your future. We’ll work together to transform your life to one filled with happiness and certainty.

Face it: As women we have unique needs when it comes to navigating grief and trauma

Whether we call ourselves Super Sensitive or empathic or Energy Sensitive, we have the ability to sense and deeply understand the emotions and energy of others. It allows us to connect with people on a profound level, often feeling what others are feeling as if those emotions are our own.

While this can be a gift, it comes with its own set of challenges. Due to the added burden of others’ emotions, never mind our own emotional processes, we need a lot more downtime and solitude to recharge on the best of days. In the event of a catastrophic life change, controlling our environment becomes even more important.

In addition to helping you heal emotional wounds, I can teach you coping strategies and self-care methods for handling these extra gifts.

A devastating past doesn’t mean an exhausting future

Trauma and loss deprive us of so much – the feeling of safety, trust in the future, faith in our emotional stability, even our sense of self.

With compassionate guidance, spiritually- and intuition-based coaching, and concrete, action-based tools to use in your daily life, you’ll find your way back to a sense of purpose and optimism.

A key step in healing is clearing the body’s energy system of blockages that resulted from all those stuck emotions. As you heal, you’ll experience the return of your self-confidence, the ability to feel calm and peace, and to relax your body and mind.

As you release those thoughts that are bringing you to your knees, you will be able to look at your memories without emotional or physical pain. You will find a new

connection with your partner and family members, discover who you really are as a person, and know that a vibrant new life is arising from deep within your body and soul.

Understanding Empaths: The gifts and challenges of Super Sensitivity

An empath is someone with the ability to sense and deeply understand the emotions and energy of others. This unique sensitivity allows empaths to connect with people on a profound level, often feeling what others are feeling as if those emotions were their own. While being an empath can be a gift, it also comes with its own set of challenges.

Stories of Healing and Hope

  • I have a sense of peace and I feel whole again.

    “It has been four years since my only son was murdered and I have done a lot of work to heal.  The coaching sessions I have had with Zoya have always found some area where there was still a lot of pain. The consistent results have been that I have a sense of peace, the pain has diminished significantly, and I feel whole. I highly recommend working with her, no matter what your loss and whenever it occurred. Life does go on and we can remember the love.”

    — Michelle D. Woodland Hills, Ca. 

  • I now experience a deeper healing and awareness

    “Zoya created a very warm, inviting and safe space for me to work on healing my inner child, process past traumas and work on my self confidence and self image. She was so intuitive and empathetic and though I've done therapy and lots of inner work prior, she helped me dive deeper into things than I every have which resulted in deeper healing and awareness. I'm so grateful to have met her. “

    — Anisa, Northridge, CA

  • I highly recommend Zoya.

    "I highly recommend Zoya as a grief/life coach. She has helped me over the years to resolve grief and life issues. Zoya presents herself well and has keen insight into healing through her coaching. She continues to learn new techniques which gives me confidence in the work she does for me."

    — Robert, New Berlin, WI

  • I was finally able to work through issues to move on with my life.

    "I met with Zoya as a Grief Coach in 2012. I was at that time still trying to deal with unresolved grief issues related to my husband's death four years earlier. Through both her gentle, loving, accepting manner, and her effective structured exercises, I was finally able to work through issues to move on with my life. It was especially helpful to me that she was able to work with me through telephone meetings and on a flexible schedule. My experience working with Zoya was such that I felt confident in giving her name as a referral to a long time personal friend who is now confronting his own grieving situation."

    — Joan, Camarillo, CA

  • You have truly helped to heal my pain.

  • I feel it has set me on my correct path. I plan to have more reiki sessions done!

    My time with Zoya was very well spent. i am someone who has a lot of energy blockages and she was very knowledgeable and helped guide me to where I need to be to make steps in the right direction. I do recommend working with her and she was well worth the money. Much love Zoya, thank you!

    — Bryce, Ojai, CA

  • I recommend anyone who has tried traditional therapy and hasn't gotten enough out of it to try this. I'm so glad I am!

    I was skeptical about Reiki before I had the experience of meeting Zoya. Her Trauma Healing Therapy is so much more than just Reiki. I had done traditional therapy for years and have been feeling "stuck" for a couple years - until I started my practice with Zoya! She is able to pull out deep rooted emotions inside of me that have been buried for many years and needing to be released. I have been shocked at how she is able to get me to release my emotions. After the multiple therapy/meditation/breathing/journaling excercises Zoya walks you through, then it's time for Reiki. She was able to point out on my body (without me saying a word) where I have arthritis. I was in shock and any doubts I had in her energy work were put to rest. Zoya truly has a gift to heal you and I recommend anyone who has tried traditional therapy and hasn't gotten enough out of it to try this. I'm so glad I am!

  • Before working with Zoya, I felt like my energy was sucked out of my soul

    Before working with Zoya, I felt like my energy was sucked out of my soul, due to so many stressful events I was going through. I didn't understand why I felt so tired and unmotivated. I was drained!

    — Lean, Oxnard, CA

  • I recuperated my inner peace.

    My session with Zoya was very intense. I never expected such an emotional and electrifying connection with my body. It was a liberation of all the bad energy absorbed and a release of interior blocks. I have learned to focus on my happiness through the different sessions. Most importantly, I recuperated my inner peace.
