Bridging the pragmatic and the Sacred towards healing and wholeness.
We are in challenging times ripe with anxiety and grief for social and ecological crises. We are also in significant times of potential and resilience. One of the medicines that is being called forth is the ability to be with the unknown and uncertainty that is prevalent in our lives, personally and collectively, while remaining resourced, adaptive and open to emergent and healing ways forward.
Deepening our capacity to grieve is a learned skilled that builds resiliency and supports connection to self, others and to the wider web of relationships we are embedded in. Grieving not only honors what is happening, but also deepens our capacity to hold steady during times of transition and change. Whether grief is for personal loss, ecological despair, ancestral disconnection, or cultural and social traumas (which are all inter-connected), the work of grieving is a necessary skill of resiliency.

Ancestral Connection & Healing
I offer guidance and ritual support to help people reclaim relationship with their ancestors, and to bring more awareness to the ancestral gifts they carry, and the places in need of healing and reconciling. This work helps to transform unmetabolized grief, intergenerational trauma, cultural harms, and unhelpful family patterns, into increased agency, integrity and clarity in service of personal and collective well-being. I am available to teach and guide group ritual in ancestral healing. Learn more...

Mentoring & Training Path Program
I offer an immersive mentorship and training path program for those who are called to deepen their skills in companioning others through grief and transition in ways that promote dignity and resilience. Combining therapeutic, ritual, ancestral, somatic and trauma-informed support approaches within a community learning context, this is a deep dive into cultivating one's soul calling to be of service in personal and collective transitions.

Whether mentoring individuals, offering group training, or facilitating a community experience, I recognize people in their energetic and holistic selves - mental, emotional, physical, social, cultural, and spiritual - and as embedded in the wider field of the other-than-human world. I also strive to embody and work from a place that understands my own historical and social location as a colonial settler of European ancestry. I acknowledge the ongoing impacts of colonialism, racism, sexism, earth disconnection, and other cultural wounds that work to erase the diversity and dignity of human and other-than-human experiences and expression. My work and offerings are trauma/somatics-informed and anchored in the resiliency of the human spirit, and in animist and decolonizing values.
