Rising from Devastating Grief through Spiritual Healing

Aleksandra Chumak is a first-generation Ukrainian immigrant, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, fantasy novelist, and spiritual explorer, whose life is a living testament to the resilience of the human spirit. After enduring a series of profound family losses, Aleks transformed her pain into purpose, dedicating her life to helping others navigate the depths of grief and rediscover joy.

Certified in Family Constellations, Positive Psychology, and Grief Counseling, Aleks weaves together a rich tapestry of healing modalities—from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Somatic Trauma Healing to compassion-based practices and spiritual wisdom. Her work gently guides clients back to their bodies, values, and souls, helping them reclaim safety, agency, and meaning.

Be sure to tune in to hear Irene and Aleks explore the transformative losses that shaped Aleks’s path, the signs Aleks has received from her late husband Michael and her connection to the Other Side, healing intergenerational wounds and ancestral trauma, energy practices that unlock intuition and spiritual alignment, the unexpected gifts of grief and how it can become a portal to profound growth, and more!
