a persistent skin symptom is often a valuable messenger from the inner you

We see the skin as a pathway to explore the deeper terrain of the physical and emotional bodies. We help you listen and understand what is calling you via your symptoms, sensations, and dreams through a supportive lens. Supportive care is where mind and body meet, allowing for a deeper connection to the spirit. A supportive skin care approach respects the natural intelligence of the body and aims to improve the functioning of your skin from the outside in, rather than control, suppress, or cover up a problem, and continues to inspire others about the body's intrinsic healing wisdom.

holybei represents the collective offerings of Barbara Georges (she/her), a Los Angeles-based artist, herbalist, and holistic skincare practitioner committed to investigating the skin as a vital organ of communication. The intention of her practice is to respect you-the-client as the ultimate authority on yourself, to aid you in untangling unconscious influences, and to bring the best of you to light. It is her mission to help others lovingly connect with all of themselves, empower them to find their own answers from within, learn how to take an active role in maintaining their own health, and recognize the beauty that is already within us and all around us through a direct relationship with the natural world. It is her deep love and honor to help others liberate themselves in this way.

Throughout and beyond her work as an aesthetician, Barbara has learned from people at far corners of this earth, drawing deep inspiration from mother nature and the wisdom inherent in each of our body’s processes. She has trained in and become a practitioner of modalities she has personally benefited from, alongside witnessing others explore, grow, and heal through these approaches. Collectively, the experiences and processes she shares are holybei holistic. To book an appointment, please use our service booking form.

We currently offer 60, 75, or 90-minute in-home and Zoom sessions in the Echo Park area of Los Angeles, California (based in Pacific US time).

In an effort to make services more available to those in need, we offer a limited number of sliding-scale sessions on a first-come, first-serve basis. To request a sliding-scale session, please contact me.
