Shamanic Healing
Shamanism is a system of healing based on spiritual practices that originated in tribal cultures. The shaman is a healer who acquires knowledge, wisdom, and spiritual power from personal helping spirits whom the shaman encounters on journeys into other realities that are normally invisible and undetectable to people whose conscious awareness is usually focused on the ordinary reality of daily life. The Shamanic practitioner is able to see and enter realms intentionally that most people encounter only in dreams and myth, and from these realms, the Shamanic practitioner brings back vital information for the healing of individuals, communities and the Earth itself. Shamanic healing may involve extraction of harmful intrusion that cause sickness or bad luck, soul retrieval to bring back lost parts of one’s soul, power animal retrieval to bring back helping spirits to aid the person in daily life and divination work to retrieve answers to questions a person may need spiritual help with.
I studied under a shaman for over 5 years learning about and healing wounds to the soul of an individual. In modern times, when a person feels as if they have left their body because they are experiencing pain that feels too scary or too intense to handle, we call that dissociation. In shamanic cultures they refer to that as Soul Loss. Soul Loss can happen to anyone at anytime during their lifetime. It doesn't have to be classical traumas such as abuse, neglect, addiction, etc. A person can experience soul loss from anything from teasing, shame, isolation, rejection, poor self image, etc. Working together to explore those past trauma's, the lasting negative story or belief we created from that trauma and the behaviors that are driven by those limiting beliefs and healing once and for all from them is the work of shamanic healing that I practice. Getting those lost soul parts back is essential to long lasting healing.

To me, spirituality is not just religion. There is so much to learn of spirit, our own spirit, from being in touch with that which is bigger than us.

People who are engaging in intense, deeper personal work often find themselves considering thoughts and feelings about spirituality. This can mean entirely different things to different people. While there are no right or wrong answers to questions about spirituality due to its intensely personal nature, exploring and developing one's sense of spirituality can be a deeply rewarding experience, and can help us develop in deeper ways that are very helpful to living a more fulfilling life. Having engaged in a great deal of this type of work myself, I feel well-qualified to help clients navigate this area of therapy work. I enjoy using various therapeutic approaches in this work, with a Jungian approach often proving to be very helpful.

Psychologist, PhD Clinical Psychology, Masters in Marriage Family Therapy
We are fundamentally spiritual beings. When we become divorced from this reality we are exiled from our essence. Spiritual bankruptcy is the basis for most of our suffering in this incarnation. A reclamation of who we truly are provides the remedy and pathway towards a more joyful, compassion filled life.
