Introduction

Hey there, I'm Ayda Ad Astra. I am Unconventional Counselor who works along the intersection of identity & spirituality by infusing mysticism into therapeutic work. I believe there is a place for intuition in healing work so in addition to traditional talk therapy, I am led by my intuition regarding the modality of mysticism to introduce, as we work to strengthen yours.
