Frantzces Lys
With over two decades of experience in the mental health field, I support individuals who feel stuck despite their efforts to move forward, and help them reconnect with a life that feels purposeful, peaceful, and true.
​
My approach blends clinical expertise with spiritual insight, honoring the full complexity of your healing journey. Together, we’ll explore the emotional patterns, protective parts, and limiting beliefs that have kept you in survival mode and begin to gently shift them. Through a holistic process that includes mindfulness, somatic awareness, cognitive reframing, and spiritual reflection, we’ll cultivate meaningful, lasting change from the inside out.
Whether you’re navigating a life transition, grief, anxiety, or an inner sense of disconnection, I offer a grounded space where both your psychological needs and spiritual longing are supported.
For those called to deeper work, I also offer private and group retreats, including plant medicine integration, to help you access clarity, connection, and profound emotional healing.
You deserve to feel whole, grounded, and free. I’m here to support your healing journey and help you move forward with purpose and confidence.
