About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Kimberly is the co-founder of Ananda Lodge Costa Rica and a certified somatic trauma-informed medicine facilitator and integration guide. As an empathic medicine woman, Kimberly brings over 10 years of personal coaching and working with plant medicine.
Experiencing the depths of corporate burnout, she turned to ancient healing traditions and plant medicine for soul reconnection and transformation.
Guided by indigenous wisdom, she learned to listen to nature’s whispers and harness its healing energies. As the founder of Ananda Lodge Costa Rica, Kimberly continues to walk the path of a humble servant, providing one-to-one coaching, support, and guidance through plant medicine journeys.
In addition to her training in trauma-informed care, she is also a certified sound healing therapist, and herbalist in training. On her path she has received mentorship from Atira Tan, Kat Courtney, Daniela Riojas, and Erika Buenaflor. With deep reverence for the Shipibo-Konibo tribe, she continues to apprentice in ayahuasca shamanism and facilitation.
