She believes that we are not defined by our past. She is dedicated to dismantling the ways in which we internalize histories of abuse, mistreatment, imprisonment, slavery, and colonization in order to bring a revolutionary love into existence.
As a white skinned Chicanx born and raised in Southeast San Diego, she was born into a family ridden with alcohol, narcotic, and physical abuse. Xtina was the first in her family of six to attend college, graduated magna cum laude from UCSC with a dual B.A.in Feminist Studies and Political Science, and earned her M.A. in Ethnic Studies at UCR. While a doctoral student, her graduate research on gendered incarceration and histories of science received two national fellowships (Ford Foundation’s Pre-Doctoral Fellowship and The National Science Foundation’s Graduate Research Fellowship). Her community activism addressed/s recidivism and alternatives to incarceration.
While facilitating restorative healing and self-empowerment circles for formerly incarcerated women in South LA, she realized her passion for inner healing. Xtina left her doctoral program and started her own healing business. She serves clients in the United States and Canada. As a result of working with Xtina, her clients understand their worth, remove limiting belief patterns, heal broken relationships, and courageously step into their authentic power.
Xtina currently collaborates with
Prison From The Inside Out - a nationwide non-profit to empower those who are incarcerated, and
Seven Seas Foundation- an international coffee based nonprofit funding special projects across the globe.
She has been teaching for 18 years and practicing spiritual healing for 12 years. She uses her academic background in Restorative Justice, Counseling & Developement, and Feminist Science Studies, her formal training in Reiki and Urban Leadership, and her intutition and spirituality. Her work dives to the root of the problem to undo our subconscious patterns to the ways we think, act, speak, and live our lives.
