ABOUT Me

I have been a life-long seeker of truth and lover of wisdom. My mother was my first “client.” She inspired me with a passion to help others find meaning, growth, and healing from all of life’s experiences. I have my Masters in Psychology from Meridian University and I am currently working towards my doctorate. I am the founder of Sanctuary Retreats Hawaii, a retreat company dedicated to empowering the feminine nature in all beings and especially women.

I am passionate about creating environments where both catharsis and inspiration take place. Healing is what occurs when that which has caused us pain and separation is met with love and connection.

I was initiated into spiritual mystery school over a decade ago and have since taken the embodiment and the transmission of the ancient, perennial wisdom as the main focus of my life. Truth can be sought through the intellect but only known through the body, or “soma.” My emphasis on emotional, somatic presencing, combined with reflective and imaginal analysis, allows for the inner masculine and inner feminine archetypes of the soul to come into a state of balance and harmony. I live in a conscious community in Hawaii with many friends and my cat Purusha.

Purusha means ‘eternal spirit’ in Sanskrit.

Here’s a nice group shot from one of our regular “self-care and sisterhood” day retreats. <3

“No woman can call herself free who does not control her own body.” ― Margaret Sanger

“I am a woman and a warrior. If you think I can’t be both, you’ve been lied to.” ― Jennifer Zeynab Joukhadar, "The Map of Salt and Stars"

I’d love to help you find your new path forward. See how you can work with me to discover what living with purpose and conviction means to you. 

TESTIMONIALS

Alexis, Chicago

“I’ve searched Reddit, tik tok, even my spiritual advisor but realistically i think i look up to you th e most.”

Mina, Toronto

Lena embodies and channels divine intuitive wisdom with compassion, clarity, and ease. She is able to quickly identify and challenge your own limiting beliefs and help you tap into your own internal guidance to overcome obstacles. It’s clear that Lena has committed to her own personal growth and healing, which is why she’s able to help others so effectively. Her sessions are grounded in empathy and presence, and she radiates a deep inner peace and equanimity throughout. While she is able to dive into deep and difficult conversations on sensitive topics and hold space for trauma, healing and pain; she is equally adept at incorporating play, movement, dance and lightness into her work. I am always inspired by her abundant creativity, joy and positive energy. I appreciate sessions with her because she gently nudges me just outside my comfort zone, encourages me to embody self-love and self-compassion, and creates a space where I feel free and safe to be vulnerable and express/accept every part of myself without fear of judgment. Her insights and support has been incredibly helpful on my healing journey and I highly recommend working with her if you have a chance! With love and gratitude, Mina

MY COACHING METHOD

  • Reframe

    It all starts by understanding how you got to where you are and what’s worth keeping in the picture as you write your new empowering story. You will learn tools for self love and forgiveness that liberate you from any pain, regret or fears that are holding you back.

  • Reclaim

    Next, you’ll reclaim what’s truly yours to own and within your power to master, both strengths you possess and patterns you fall prey to. This step is about orienting to the present moment, acceptance, and grounding into concrete practices.

  • Reflame

    How can you enable your passion to emanate from within and magnetize opportunities for expansion? In this last step, you learn how to weave a future vision into your present practices. Here you embody new codes of intention that are calibrated to your dreams and desires.
