Intuitive healer and teacher, Shirin, brings over 20 years of experience to her expansive and powerful work. Drawing on global experience and a diverse background, Shirin's work incorporates the quantum healing techniques of ThetaHealing™, Native American systems of Spirituality, and Hawaiian Mysticism. Her teachers include: Native American teacher/revealer Ka'chi, Vianna Stibal, founder of ThetaHealing™, Ed Kaiwi, Hawaiian Kahuna. Shirin received her BA in psychology from UCSD.

Because of the broad scope of her training and abilities, Shirin offers a unique combination of healing approaches specifically tailored to each individual. Knowing that all true healing comes from the Creator and is expressed through love, her approach is infused with love and a connection to the Divine. Aware of the relationship between individual and community, thought and expression, emotion and health, her work weaves together the many layers of our human journey. Shirin holds the space at the intersection of the spiritual and physical, navigating the spiritual realm while celebrating the beauty of our physical expression. She is a student in the art of motherhood: guiding a spiritually conscious child into full bloom. Honoring all the senses, she delights in creative cooking, introducing her native Persian elements to the tropical flavors of her Kaua'i home. Shirin has a deep love of orchids, (some know her as the Orchid Angel), cultivating environments where the orchids' high vibrations elevate the beauty and healing energy of a chosen area.

She is the Wellness Expert for KFC International, the Health and Fitness Expert for the National Association of Entrepreneur Moms, and a Fitness Expert for Nourishing Wellness Medical Center.
