If you've ever felt like you've drifted far from yourself — I know that feeling intimately. And I know a way back.
“I had been moving further and further out of alignment with myself — with who I was as a child — and it was undeniable.”
Hello, my loves. I'm Nicole — I guide people into deeper relationship with themselves through inner work and creative expression.
My love for holistic approaches to mind-body healing began in childhood, growing up in a Waldorf school. I was raised with a deep reverence for nature; my days were filled with painting, drawing, dancing, chasing mystical creatures, and making things with my hands — learning to tune in and listen to my body from a very young age.
I was also raised by two parents with beautiful open minds and deep spiritual roots. My mother, a psychic, was raised by her mother — a hypnotherapist — and her grandmother, an energy healer. She was taught to nurture her intuitive gifts from a young age and made it her profession early in life, raising me to do the same. My father, raised in a West African and French home, grew up between the worlds of witch doctors and religion, with a deep fascination with magic, nature, animals, and adventure. He was the storyteller of my childhood and taught me to always remain open to magic, spirituality, and all ways of being.
When I ventured into the "real" world — after 18 years of working with my hands, immersed in nature, soaking up magic in my Waldorf years — I was met with some jarring moments of redirection. I explored art through experimental filmmaking at CalArts, then moved to New York City, which was a tremendous culture shock.
New York was an exciting place to discover who I was, especially in contrast to my nature-soaked, magical childhood. But after a few years, I began to burn out.
Caught up in hustle culture and exhausted from chasing, anxiety and depression caught up with me — my nervous system became completely frayed. The film and art world I had been working in shut down entirely around the peak of my existential crisis in 2020, and I knew something had to change.
I had been moving further and further out of alignment with myself — with who I was as a child — and it was undeniable.
What followed was a major spiritual awakening. In my moment of feeling most lost, I was guided to books and transformative experiences with spiritual medicine that cracked something open in me.
On a whim, I applied to Columbia University — drawn by their Spirit Mind Body Institute, where the science of spirituality was being studied through a psychological lens. I got in, began the program in September 2020, and felt like I had finally come home to myself.
I dove deep into Jungian psychology, dreamwork, and the profound relationship between creativity, human development, and healing. I graduated with a Master's in psychology and went on to partner with organizations working in art, activism, and nature education.
In 2024, I began building my own vision. I traveled to Mexico City to teach Jungian shadow work and intuitive art-making. In Los Angeles I led nervous system regulation and intention-setting workshops, and began working one-on-one with people to explore their dreams through a Jungian lens.
In 2025, I traveled to Italy to study Reiki, which deepened my love for embodiment — and led me onward to Bali and Rishikesh, India, where I immersed myself in Eastern spirituality and culture and completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training.
I am a seeker who loves to share what I learn.
Throughout all of it, two things have proven themselves to be true: a regulated nervous system is our greatest asset, and creativity is essential for connecting to our inner world. Everything I offer is built around these two truths. My deepest passion is creating sanctuary spaces — where you feel completely safe to soften, to explore, and to meet the most authentic version of yourself.
The greatest journey is inward. And whether you're in the middle of a transformation, feeling lost, or simply curious about what lives beneath the surface — you're in the right place.
Whether you're drawn to the quiet healing of Reiki, the clarity of intuitive coaching, the mystery of your dreams, or the warmth of a workshop — there is a door here for you, wherever you are on your path.
I would be truly honored to walk alongside you.
