“True healing tends to the soul, honors our history, and transforms the systems that shape us.”

With over 25 years in the mental health and wellness space!
Cynthia Santiago-Borbón is a licensed therapist, transformational coach, and initiated Lucumí Priestess of Obatalá who has guided and coached thousands to elevate their consciousness, reclaim their spirituality and wisdom traditions, and develop the skills of personal and collective liberation.
Her work is grounded in a fierce belief in equity, sovereignty, and the sacred right of every human being to a good life—one filled with dignity, freedom, loving relationships, and access to resources. Deeply spiritual, Cynthia weaves ritual, energy work, and ancestral wisdom into every offering, helping mental health professionals, healing practitioners, mission-driven leaders, changemakers, and high-achievers reclaim their inner power and rise into their purpose.
She believes that personal healing serves the collective, and that how we live, work, and lead should reflect our vision for a more liberated world. Her spaces are known for being deeply compassionate, spiritually grounded, and unapologetically committed to transformation—both inner and systemic.
Cynthia holds a Master in Social Work from Fordham University and a B.A. from Hamilton College. She is certified in Positive Psychology, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy, Reiki Mastery, and as a Mindful Meditation teacher. She has been featured in USA Today, New York Magazine, Cosmopolitan, Women’s Day, Bustle, Byrdie, NBC, The Bulwark, Squarespace, Columbia University, and the NASW.
When she’s not guiding others, you’ll find her salsa dancing with her husband, designing jewelry, reading a self-development book, or playing with her little goldendoodle, Cielo.
Cynthia’s mission is to help shift planetary consciousness by guiding others to heal deeply, lead boldly, and live in right relationship with themselves, each other, and the Earth.
