LaToya Thurman RM, WMA is a crystal reiki master, educator, holistic health practitioner, author, spiritual medium, priest, and owner of Cymbee’s Conjure Shop. She first became aware of her natural gifts as early as 10 years old and in recent years has recognized her calling as a healing arts facilitator. Her areas of expertise include crystals, divination, and mediumship.

LaToya graduated from California State University Long Beach in 2006 where she earned a bachelors of arts in political science with a concentration in political theory and Latin American comparative politics. She went on to work in the nonprofit sector for six years. In 2012 LaToya made the decision to leave the traditional workforce and dedicate her life to the healing arts.

LaToya has since studied with various teachers in the fields of crystal science, yoga, meditation, energy healing, and holistic health. She holds several certifications in the field of metaphysics in addition to lineage based spiritual initiations. LaToya believes wholeheartedly that every human deserves a life of total wellness. Her purpose is to support those on the path to Self discovery–assisting them in creating the life they want. Her ultimate mission is spiritual sovereignty.  LaToya currently resides in Atlanta, GA with her partner, Rev.
