I pull from my personal life experiences, intuition, trainings, and what I have learned from the environment as appropriate to meet you where you're at at that moment.  

Always with healing the self as my center of focus. 

And for fun I like to go on day trips with my husband, spend as much time with my daughters when they visit, dance Salsa, Merengue, take pictures of trees (sometimes I hug them), draw and paint, get together with friends. 

Most of all, I love to experience life!

Lovingly,
Maria
