My Story
My name is Eliza Bailstein. I am a psychosocial educator and holistic health specialist.
​
For over a decade, I have worked with hundreds of families and individuals on their journey to creating healthy, joyous, peaceful lives for themselves. My mission is to help my clients recognize and replace self-defeating patterns with self-constructive ones,
​
Education
I am a proud graduate of Eckerd College in St. Petersburg, FL with a degree in Human Development focusing in Expressive Arts Therapy and Psychology. There I learned the science and art of holistic, healthy living on physical, psychological, social, and spiritual levels. I furthered my education with Duke University's Health and Wellbeing Program.
​
Experience
Along with my private practice, I have spent many years working with and teaching traumatized children in foster homes and school settings.
​
As a survivor of child abuse and neglect myself, I am uniquely qualified for this career path. At a very young age, I developed a variety of physical and mental health issues. PTSD, obesity, depression, and anxiety debilitated me. I struggled to develop a healthy relationship with myself and others.
​
I was driven by the need to find relief and was lucky enough to have a few good teachers and friends direct me on a path of self-healing. Since that time, I have devoted my life to self-care and paying it forward by helping others do the same.
​
If you're seeking guidance on a path to self-healing, I would be honored to be of service.

Community Service
In addition to my work, I co-founded a non-profit, The Illumi-Nation Project and our community outreach, Rising Light, we provide free and low-cost educational opportunities related to personal growth, creative self-expression, and environmental sustainability.
