I started out as a massage therapist in the early 2000s. It quickly became evident that much of the tension people carry in their bodies is related to stress and trauma in their lives. Feeling called to work with clients on a deeper level, I started training in a bodywork technique called Somatic Re-Education Therapy, which supports physical recovery by addressing root mental and emotional causes. In January of 2009 I experienced what is scientifically known as a “Spiritual Emergency”, that I term my Psychic Awakening (the full story can be read here). I credit this experience with my fully connecting to my purpose as a healer, and the ability to intuitively name the stories that are trapped in people’s bodies. I started the business Body Insights, under the pseudonym Jewel Marin, as a way of sharing my unique energy healing with others.

The COVID shutdown caused my clients to shift to virtual sessions, at which point the counseling aspect of my work became more overt and the energy healing aspect less so. It felt right to get my Master’s in Counseling to both deepen and legitimize my service. I’ve found my ideal clients have an affinity for intuitive work, and being open about my background and ongoing work as a psychic can help people recognize if I am a fit for them. Often clients will schedule readings to supplement and enhance counseling sessions as feels right to them.
