About


Hi, and welcome!

My name is Amberlee, and I’m a Certified Intuitive Energy Healer, Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Licensed Acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine Herbalist.

I offer many modalities that can help you reach your health and wellness goals.

What I do:

In my practice, I specialize in working with:

In my Traditional Chinese Medicine practice I offer many modalities, including acupuncture, “dry needling”, E-stim (electrical stimulation), cupping, gua sha, medical qi gong, moxibustion, facial acupuncture, and herbal medicine support.

I’ve been in practice as an Advanced Certified Intuitive Energy Healing Practitioner for over 14 years, working with modalities like BodyTalk, BodyIntuitive and more. These practices combine aspects of modern science (such as information from the fields of epigenetics and neuroscience) with insights from ancient wisdom traditions (including Vedic medicine and TCM) as well as intuitive information to help you balance your body, mind and spirit.

Intuitive Energy Healing appointments emphasize gently releasing the impact of stressful, traumatic or difficult time periods and accessing more ease and harmony on all levels: physical, mental and emotional.

How I got started:

I grew up in Miami, where at the time alternative healing modalities were not well known. When I was 12, my mother was diagnosed with a serious bone marrow cancer. She started seeing a practitioner who offered both intuitive energy healing as well as acupuncture. She found it so helpful that she made an appointment for me.

My first session was extremely impactful. I went into the appointment experiencing a high level of baseline stress and suffering. In addition to the difficulty of my mother being ill, I had also experienced many forms of trauma in childhood and adolescence that were impacting my health and my sense of self. And, I was in an especially bad mood in the waiting room because I was not interested in trying something new.

That first session was so memorable (I can still feel the memory of it in my body), because the shift I felt from before the session to after it was immediate and profound. I went in feeling stressed and resentful, and I left feeling a deep sense of peace that had been missing in my life, but was simultaneously familiar and felt closer to who I actually am.

That moment changed my life. In the short-term, Chinese Medicine + Intuitive Energy Healing became my primary form of healthcare for all forms of ailment. In the slightly longer term, I dedicated my life and career to learning all I can about the body, the way it heals, the connection between your body and your mind, and ways to support people on their healing journey.

I began studying energy healing modalities after getting an undergraduate degree in Maine, and became the youngest Advanced BodyTalk Practitioner at that time. Since then, I’ve gotten a Masters and Doctorate in Traditional Chinese Medicine and studied under many mentors and masters. I love learning new things, and I’m always adding new modalities and tools to my practice.

If you have any questions for me about how any of these modalities can benefit you, feel free to contact me. I offer acupuncture in-person in Santa Cruz CA, and Intuitive Energy Healing and/ or herbal consultations in person and over ZOOM.
