Sonia Hsieh,LCSW
About:
Whether it is mental, emotional or physical pain that you are going through, I help my clients feel more aligned, quieter in their minds, and gain clarity on how to access their intuition for guidance and healing.
As a plant medicine provider, I help fellow seekers, healers, therapists and hard-working professionals elevate from their current belief system to step into their full power and inner knowing.
Having been on the plant medicine space for almost ten years, I offer an integrated approach that blends western philosophy with indigenous wisdom to create a unique and healing environment for your highest self to emerge.
I have trained at hospitals, out-patient clinics, group practice settings, and an international retreat center in Costa Rica, all of which have allowed me to observe the human experience from crisis, death, rebirth, spiritual emergence, and life transitions.
