Ikam Acosta, MA, MCJ

Ikam has been passionate about raising trauma awareness and empowering others to heal for over 20 years. Early in her career, Ikam pursued studies in psychology, philosophy, criminal justice, and religious studies. She feels the principles learned during her experience with clients in the traumatology field are second to none, and that telling one’s story is at the core of trauma integration and resolution. More recently she has been helping others overcome crisis and suicidal thoughts on a national suicide and crisis hotline and continued to train other crisis counselors to do the same. She feels education is a strong precursor to empowerment and enjoys teaching others about traumatic stress and wellness. Ikam practices a variety of stress reduction and mindfulness modalities and has made it her life’s passion to explore consciousness, metapsychology, and trauma integration. She hopes to continue being able to help others heal and find their inner fire.
