journey
Life has carried me through a gradual return to self, shaped by quiet moments of reflection, deep inner inquiry, and meaningful change. Healing, for me, has never moved in a straight line. It has unfolded in layers, circling back again and again, each time revealing a deeper truth beneath conditioning, roles, and inherited narratives.
As I moved through my own process, I was repeatedly drawn inward, questioning long-held beliefs, expectations I had absorbed, and versions of life that no longer felt aligned. With each layer of inquiry came a letting go, and with it, a remembering of parts of myself that had been waiting to be acknowledged.
Over time, those internal shifts began to shape my external world. What once felt chaotic softened. What once felt loud grew quieter. In that space, a steadier inner voice emerged, one rooted in clarity, presence, and trust.
What began as personal exploration naturally evolved into the work I now offer. I create grounded, supportive spaces for others navigating change, integration, and realignment. This work is an extension of my own path, held with care, respect, and a deep belief in each person’s innate wisdom and capacity to return to themselves.
Hello, I’m Cortney
I’ve felt a quiet pull toward the unseen for as long as I can remember. From an early age, I was drawn to the spiritual, metaphysical, and otherworldly, not as an escape from reality, but as a way of understanding it more deeply. I sensed there was more beneath the surface, and I carried that curiosity with me as I moved through life.
A pivotal turning point came during my first theology course in college, where I was invited to explore a deceptively simple question: Why do you believe what you believe? That inquiry shaped the way I move through the world. It taught me discernment, humility, and the importance of exploring truth through lived experience rather than inherited frameworks.
Professionally, I spent over twenty years in Human Resources, serving as an HR Executive transforming traditional HR into a strategic, people-centered powerhouse. From building performance cultures at Fortune 500 companies to nurturing soul-aligned communities in spiritual education, my goal was to blend metrics with meaning and create systems that were as empowering as they were effective. Through that work I learned how to create environments rooted in trust and openness, while refining my ability to lead, support, and guide others through change. Yet over time, it became clear that while I was skilled at helping others grow, there were parts of myself asking for deeper attention and alignment.
That realization marked the beginning of a profound inward shift. I began exploring holistic and energetic healing modalities, not as a career move, but as a personal necessity. Through work such as Life Between Life Hypnotherapy, Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT), Beyond Quantum Healing (BQH), Emotion Code Body Code Healing, Reiki, shamanic practices, and crystal healing, I experienced what it means to release what no longer serves and return to a more authentic inner rhythm. These practices weren’t just tools; they became doorways into greater clarity, embodiment, and self-trust.
Eventually, I stepped away from corporate life and into work that felt more congruent with who I am. I joined the Love & Light Crystal Healing School as the Community Manager, while I completed the accredited Certified Crystal Healer and Advanced Crystal Practitioner training. I continued deepening my own practice through study and experience becoming certified in USUI Reiki I & II, and Level 1 Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique (QHHT).
Today, my work is grounded in presence, integrity, and respect for each individual’s path. I don’t believe healing is about fixing or striving, it’s about remembering, realigning, and allowing what is already whole to come forward. I hold space for those navigating change, transition, and deeper self-inquiry, offering support that honors both intuition and embodiment.
At the heart of my work is a simple belief: we each carry an innate intelligence within us. When given the right environment, one of safety, curiosity, and trust, that wisdom knows how to surface.
