About Erika Pressman

Erika Pressman Biography

Hi, I’m Erika. I was born and raised in New York and my earliest childhood memories include my ever-present ethereal friends. Yes, I’ve been enchanted by the spirit world since I was a little girl, and found comfort and guidance being in nature with my imaginary friends, animals, trees, rocks, fairies, witches, angels and spirits from across the veil. Thankfully, this was an acceptable way of being in my family, as I inherited my psychic gifts from my beloved grandmother.

Ms. Faye was a beautiful and glamorous “Jewitch” from Manhattan, with extraordinary psychic abilities who lovingly guided me along this magical path. She was the holder of dreamworlds and passer of secrets and our connection had its own vibe filled with beauty, plants, herbs, ancient texts, spiritual teachings, alchemy, alternative healings, and the supernatural. I was taught as a young child to pay attention to the empty spaces, the subtle energies, the invisible connections. I am forever grateful that I got to be her granddaughter in this lifetime and that she is still guiding me today…from across the veil.

Although I initially pursued a career in entertainment and fashion which brought me out to Los Angeles in the late 1990’s, my true calling was ignited when I was 24 years old and met my first spiritual teacher, the world renowned astrologer, Stephanie Jourdan, and under her tutelage I studied the tarot, astrology and aromatherapy. This led to years of expanding and developing my psychic gifts professionally.On my travels to Jerusalem, Israel, in 1998, I had a mystical encounter, which led me to begin studying Jewish mysticism at The Kabbalah Centre, in Los Angeles, under the hugely influential spiritual teacher, Eitan Yardeni (to whom I am forever grateful to).

After enduring several life-altering events and personal traumas, my own journey of healing formed the foundation for my training as an energy healer and psychic medium. This allowed me to fully integrate what I learned. We are all energetic beings and when we work with the energy body to heal and raise the vibration, this helps to clear and purge emotions, traumas and outdated beliefs that no longer serve us.

I continued to seek and study with a variety of spiritual mentors who helped me to process, evolve spiritually, and attune me to the spirit realm. And this is where the real magic started to happen. I learned that a healer’s true gift lies in their ability to inspire individuals to tap into their own strength and wisdom. A healer acts as a guide, shifting the focus from dependency on external sources to self-empowerment. Seek out healers and spiritual guides who encourage and support your journey and know that their fundamental role is to help you unlock and nurture the power that resides within you.

Lastly, I’d like to share these  poignant and profound quotes that have resonated with me and have helped me in my spiritual journey:

“Humans are sparks of the divine trapped in the material world who desire to return to their spiritual home.”

“The only genuine healers are the wounded healers”

“The greatest healers are ones who have endured suffering and turn their own traumatic experiences into wisdom for others healing. Healed people, heal people.”

“Healing means losing the identity built around your pain.”

 

May your higher self light the path ahead, brightly.


With gratitude and light,

Erika Xo
