“It is a strange and wonderful fact to be here, walking around in a body, to have a whole world within you and a world at your fingertips outside you. It is an immense privilege, and it is incredible that humans manage to forget the miracle of being here.
Rilke said, ‘Being here is so much,’ and it is uncanny how social reality can deaden and numb us so that the mystical wonder of our lives goes totally unnoticed.
We are here.
We are wildly and dangerously free.”
― John O'Donohue
To work with me is to consider seeing your life through the lens of rites of passage. To see life as a ceremony. Holding the possibility that each day, each moment is a ritual. Of tending to what is unfolding as well as creating what we long to be.
A practice of presence. Walking the wild edge. The threshold of change.
My clients appreciate my willingness to get lost and found in the discovery together. My passion lies in initiating people into their magic & medicine. I work with folks navigating all sorts of life transitions and guide them in moving through the threshold that life is calling them to cross over.
Claim the RITE TO HEAL.
I am a fierce advocate for creative possibility and radical aliveness. The alchemy of activism means our healing work is act of (re)evolution. I love working with healers in all their glory, catalyst creators, community tenders, disruptors, leaders who are looking to embody their seat, folks who are here to change their lineage in radical ways, and always people who are asking the questions that go beyond themselves.
My joy is supporting folks liberating from constructs that are too small and supporting them in their Sovereignty. Often I am holding space for deep grief, lost inner children, folks who are unwinding from codependency, magical people who were never reflected, and always people ready to initiate onto their soul path. My work with couples is deeply rooted in the belief that partnership/relationship is a sacred path of shadow work and radical self responsibility.
For there is no such thing as one way liberation.
I hold the therapeutic relationship as an intuitive field, where we are guided by the mythos and magic of storytelling. Always listening to the story of the Soul longing to breakthrough and be expressed in its fullest exaltation. My prayer is that we awaken to the inquiry that goes beyond just who we are into a deep remembering of what we are. Many people say that my work feels more like wisdom, devotion, curiosity, reverence, magic and mayhem more than anything else.
My “apprenticeship with sorrow” began young through the initiation of many traumas which catalyzed a path of seeking and healing through many streams. My path is as a bridge builder, a shapeshifter and someone who walks betwixt and between many realms. As a queer witch, my magic is walking the edge and holding space for what exists beyond the binary. Weaving the mystery of what abides and can be only created and transformed in the spaces in between. The web of life.
Through the lens of shamanic practices, I am a devotee to the liminal threshold between Death & Rebirth. As a multiple cancer survivor, I am deeply versed in the untangling of trauma into transformation. My journey has led to deep inquiry in the realms of social justice, depth psychology, esoteric arts, Buddhism, non-duality, wilderness rites of passage, intuition medicine and non-ordinary states of consciousness.
It has been my honor to serve in the field of healing arts for more than 20 years. You can work with me directly through wylderlife.com
