Who am I now?
The bittersweet, authentic, inspired experience of having a physical illness, and being human.
Hi! I'm Zina~
I am a LPC body-oriented psychotherapist, speaker, trainer, consultant, writer, performer, and catalyst... a therapist with #jazzhands!
I had my own life-altering medical setback which began in 2011, and now I work to inspire people who have had similar experiences to realize they're not alone. Guess what? Illness is not the end, it's a new beginning.
I love… helping you remember that you are both normal, and extraordinary.
I believe… that illness can be the initiation to the new you. The door has been opened, how do you choose to walk through it?
I am committed to… encouraging curiosity around who you are now, although (not because) you have an illness.
Here’s what I know for sure… being sick sucks. And it can be our greatest teacher.
So, I write, I guide, I present, and I twirl to remind myself, and other people, of being exquisitely human.
I also happen to love (in no particular order): learning through relationship, squirrels, stars, the color orange, and anything that sparkles.

“Death pushed me to the edge, nowhere to back off. And to the shame of my fears, I danced with abandon in his face. I never danced as free. And death backed off, the way dark backs off, a sudden burst of flame. Now there’s nothing left but to keep dancing. It is the way I would have chosen had I been born three times as brave.” (Mark Nepo)
