I am an artist, player of music, biophilliac, teacher, flower essence and shamanic practitioner based on the Aspotogan Peninsula in Nova Scotia. I offer spiritual healing and consultations in person or by phone or skype.
My work is a fusion of a number of paths I have been following for many years. The main streams of these paths are: flower essence therapy, yoga, shamanism, and inner inquiry through creative expression and somatic experiencing – leading to spiritual transformation and a better understanding of the self interconnected with the entire expression of earth and the cosmos.
I practice in relationship to the context of animism, meaning that everything is alive and has consciousness and power. That our teachers are everywhere in the universe, seen and unseen. I also practice with the acknowledgement that there is a higher power, beyond our own that we can relate with for healing, transformation, and guidance. This relationship with a higher power provides the foundational support within the healing session as well as gives power and clarity to tarot divination and astrological chart interpretation.
My training is in core shamanism from Michael Harner and the Foundation for Shamanic Studies, as well as many other master teachers in shamanism and shamanic healing. I also have a BA in History and a BFA in Painting and Environmental Planning. I have been teaching classes in art, creativity, shamanism, and Energy Hygiene since 2006. I have personally been studying Energetic Boundaries and Hygiene, Astrology, Tarot, and Sound Healing for over 10 years, and provide these resources to my clients along with shamanic therapy.
