About Klára Abdi de Luz

Originally from Czechoslovakia, Klára escaped her country with her mother and elder brother and became a refugee to Canada at the age of 10.

In 2014, she embarked on a healing journey to heal her developmental, complex and intergenerational trauma.

Her healing journey included transformational counselling developed by Richard Hastings, MA, which she received and later trained in, reconnecting to her body and intuition through dance and meditation, discovering sound healing, delving into and healing her subconscious through plant medicine journeys, meditation practices and shamanic ceremonies, a variety of counselling practices including somatic experiencing, family systems, internal family systems and EMDR, and employing a mixture of the above to undertake ancestral and past life healing.

The primary healing modality she employs is sound healing which she began practicing in 2018, drawing on her previous musical training and her newly-discovered healing abilities. She uses a variety of instruments including crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, shamanic drum, various steel tongue drums, ocean drum, wind chimes, bamboo and other types of rattles, rainmaker, and more. She was led to shamanic drumming intuitively and has received guidance through connecting to her guides and ancestors. She has also completed several shamanic workshops.

In terms of energy healing, she is trained in Pranic Healing (advanced level), Magnified Healing and Reiki (Level 1). Along with her 7 years of healing experience, intuitive guidance, and receiving healing from other practitioners, she has molded the learnings from these trainings into her own particular style of energy healing.

She combines all these modalities to form her own unique healing approach. When working with clients, she tailors her sessions to fit with their specific needs.

Klára is currently a PhD Candidate at UBC, writing an arts-based dissertation examining my own trauma healing journey. She draws on concepts from psychology, various forms of alternative healing and spirituality and is using poetry and life writing to convey to her experiences in beautiful and powerful ways. Through her healing work with clients and her PhD project she is in the process of developing a unique healing framework for trauma healing.

Klára is also active on YouTube, creating sound healing meditations, shamanic guided journeys, and ASMR videos with sound and energy healing.

Klára's intention in all her work is to help people heal, whether this is simply from sharing vulnerably so others know they are not alone in their struggles or working directly with clients in her practice. She also teaches creative writing and helps people using other creative methods.

Other Practitioners I Work With

Roya Abdi,
Bodyworker and Somatic Energy Healer

Hi there, I'm Roya. I am a bodyworker and somatic energy healer with a studio at UBC. I graduated from the Vancouver School of Healing Arts with a Bodywork Therapy Diploma. Prior to my schooling, I was very sensitive to energies in my environment and the people I came into contact with. Through my own personal journey with somatic healing, I have been able to grow my roots deeper and fuller. Combining my personal experiences with my schooling, I now have a solid foundation for my work.

My work is cantered around the sacredness of our needs, integration and healing. I believe that through the recognition and fulfillment of our needs we become more embodied and in tune with our higher selves.

I have been trained in multiple modalities, including myofascial deep tissue, reflexology, Swedish, joint release, head massage, hydrotherapy combined with aromatherapy.

My work is centred around the sacredness of our needs, integration and healing. I believe that through the recognition and fulfillment of our needs we become more embodied and in tune with our higher selves. I also believe that it is through the process that we gain wisdom about our patterns in relation to unmet needs. I believe that maybe it is the complexity of our needs that reflects the depths of our spiritual nature.

I have always been in tune with my body and how our spirit leaves us messages through this vessels. My role is to listen and bring the intention of love and acceptance into places within the body that call me to them. I find that the more present the client is willing to be the more powerful the impact will be. You don’t have to do anything but breathe and surrender.

Though my work is always centred around energy (state of being and embodiment) I still love to use touch and my physical techniques to help ground and explore the range of movement in the body. To me it’s about balance, they help each other, they coexist. You can’t shift the physical without first shifting the energetic, but that all happens in the nervous system. The nervous system and massage have been linked throughout time but now that we are understanding the layers and importance nervous system work has on us, our work is no longer superficial and just relaxing - it is healing and using that knowledge to bring awareness is so powerful.

You can find me @integrativespirit on Instagram and Facebook. My email is integativehealer@gmail.com. I offer 60 and 75 minute treatments for $80 and $95 respectively.
