Abhaya Kali Ma is a trauma-informed healer and spiritual guide devoted to the art of human transformation. Her work bridges ancient wisdom and contemporary therapeutic understanding, creating a grounded path for profound healing and remembrance.
She studied Trauma Recovery and Social Work at Alice Salomon University in Berlin, integrating modern psychology and somatic awareness into her facilitation. Her journey continued through India, where she immersed herself in Yoga, Meditation, and the study of consciousness, and Brazil, where she trained in Plant Medicine and indigenous healing traditions rooted in the forest’s sacred intelligence.
Abhaya’s approach weaves together depth, safety, and compassion. She holds space with an intuitive presence and refined sensitivity to each participant’s unique process. Through her guidance, participants experience a field where science, spirituality, and ancestral wisdom meet — opening pathways of healing, authenticity, and spiritual rebirth.
