Welcome to Soul Therapy

I use the term therapy here, but it must be said that this is not your traditional kind of Western therapy and I am certainly not a traditional therapist. Names are limiting and I feel there are many that could suit the work I do. At my core, I am a Dream Witch. A Dream Seer. A Priestess. An Oracle. A Sueñadora. My practices are rooted in my own rich experiences and communion with Spirit and have called me forward into a life committed to helping guide humans back to empowerment and healing through their souls and dreams.

Soul Therapy is for those who have perhaps been on a journey of traditional therapy and have reached a point where they need something different. Something…deeper. Something rooted in their bones. An awakening of an ancient knowing already within.

I offer a mystical, yet therapeutic-style of conversational, creative-based spiritual and soul-based guidance intended to combine aspects of: Intuitive Shamanism, Paganism, Depth Psychology, Jungian Dream Psychology, Mindfulness, Tibetan Dream Yoga and Yoga Philosophy, IFS and Parts Work, Eastern-based Somatic Attachment Repair Practices, Curanderismo, Druidism and more.

My style is a raw and down-to Earth combination of: my own dreams, collective trainings, life experiences, and my continued journey back to myself. We work with the living or nighttime dream to encourage a personal connection to the practical magic of the Universe which is always seeking to guide and inspire you forward.

Why Do Soul Therapy?

  • All of my work takes the body into account. I believe that we have to find a way to connect and feel safe inside of ourselves before we can hear the voice of our intuition and heal what’s going on in the mind, spirit and soul.

    I believe physical symptoms can work as dreams — asking to be tended to so that we can more deeply connect to ourselves and our own healing.

    Whenever possible I try to have us work with the wisdom of the body to guide us forward and will work with the symbolic and embodied knowing to unearth new wisdom around physical ailments that you may be struggling with.

  • Nothing has given me a deeper trust in myself, my body and the Universe than my dreams. What I love most is that it only requires one thing - me! No outside influence, substance, or human intervention necessary.

    Dreams never show us anything before we’re ready, so they are our greatest confidants and guides, always having our best interests and highest good at heart.

    Whether we work with your nighttime dreams or learn how to see your waking world as a dream, this kind of work will offer you a deeper connection to yourself, something greater than yourself and a new way of seeing the world through a magical lens.

  • I know that my own healing journey has been drastically enhanced when working with mentors, guides and support humans who are real about their own life journey.

    To truly help guide, we need to be embodied in what we do. This work comes from my own continued deep healing journey. I share in your vulnerability with my own so that you never feel alone when working with me. We are both on equal levels in this life — I’m simply sharing the wisdom I’ve gained and continue to gain along the way. I also have a ridiculous sense of humor, so you can expect lightness in the dark.

  • Whether you are deeply entrenched in your journey and connection to something greater, healing from organized systems or just looking to explore what it means to be a spiritual human, I offer focused support in this realm.

    I believe this is a crucial part to our healing but we again, are all on different paths with this and our relationship to the God of our own understanding will be unique to us. My hope is to empower you to find what resonates and works for you so that you can remember and live a deeply connected and supported life.

  • Everything I do is rooted in empowerment. This is why I love dreams so much. The dream of each of our lives is unique to us and us alone. None of us are going to heal, expand or experience anything the same way. I’m not here to tell you how to do anything. I’m here to help guide you to your own wisdom so that you can learn to trust your own greatest advisor…you!

How to do Soul Therapy:

New Client Foundation Building Sessions

For anyone new to working with me and ready to commit to diving deep into this transformative work, I require a commitment of 3 sessions so you can build a strong foundation and get to the root of what’s being asked to be supported. 60 or 90 minute virtual sessions are available.

Established Client Ongoing Sessions

After a foundation is built, we can determine a game plan for how consistently we want to continue this work together. 60 or 90 minute sessions are available virtually. If you are local, we can also hold these sessions in nature when requested.

Intensive Soul Reconnection Ceremonies

For those wanting to reconnect to deeply honor an experience of reconnecting to their souls as in ceremony. This immersive 3.5-4 hour experience is held in my private home studio and will incorporate an intuitive mix of her methods and ways to honor and dive into this sacred intention.

Additional Mystical Remedies

These individual add-on sessions can enhance and support your Soul Therapy journey and take you on a personalized deep dive into our work together in ways you can continue to practice on your own.

  • My own dreams showed me how to guide Tarot sessions in this way, so I am deeply passionate about this particular process.

    If you wish to have a directed session to support in a question or specific situation in your life, this can be a great practice.

    Essentially, we “build” a dream and weave its story together. You’ll be empowered to find your own meaning and direction forward alongside my guidance.

    Additionally, you’ll gain a friend in the Tarot which can support your daily practice of connecting to your intuition.

  • Using Active Imagination, visualization and deeply grounding techniques, I will work with you to build a dream with cards first and then guide you deeply into the realm of your subconscious to call the dream to life. You will get to embody and experience the feeling of this waking dream for enhanced clarity and knowing with whatever you are working with at the time.

  • Want to have custom guided mindfulness and visualization meditations that you can use on your own in your own time on your own device? I can customize personal meditations based on your specific needs that can be between 3-20min in length and ideally, are personalized just for you and your unique lifestyle.

  • If you’re seeking a personalized movement session to tend to a specific physical ailment, limitation or just want to relaxing guided experience, I will tailor a session specifically for you and your needs. We can emphasis Somatic Movement, Meditation, Dreamweaving, Yoga Nidra or a combo of them all depending on where you’re at.

  • I am happy to cultivate a personalized ritual or spell for a specific ask or time in your life. Depending on what it is, we can work on creating an empowered and authentic ritual experience for you and/or a handcrafted spell to honor and ignite what is being called forward or left behind.

The Ingredients of Soul Therapy:

  • Our dreams are the language of the Universe. The messages from our souls.

    Working with our nighttime dreams can be one of the most empowering gifts that exists. To begin to cultivate Symbolic Sight - to see the language of the Universe communicating with you at all times — awake or asleep can bring us so much solace and comfort. It can also be our map into the unknown of ourselves to lead us to our most authentic lives.

    I can focus our sessions solely on dreams or bring in waking dream actions and tools to support your journey into your dreams. Wherever you are, if you’re interested, we can find a way in. When we listen to our dreams and make new choices in our waking lives, we are sure to see our lives change for the better.

    Dreamkeeping is a method I have created over my years of experience working with my own Intuitive Shamanic and dream experiences and immense training in Depth Psychology, Jungian-and Indigenous-based Dreamwork, Eastern Somatic Practices, Meditation & Awareness Practices and the Tarot.

    I utilize these in different capacities as a foundation within all of my offerings.

    Like a beekeeper would, my work is to hold your dreams (waking or sleeping) as sacred. To enter into the space with reverence and love. To support in removing any obstacles necessary for your own growth and expansion and assist in the process where needed.

  • Our body is our consort for life and our most trusted partner. Yet, we all struggle at times to feel safety and love within them.

    We are taught to push our bodies. Live outside of them. Treat them as something other than the great wisdom keepers they are.

    As someone who has pushed her body to the limits physically, felt the weight of body image challenges, dealt with self-loathing and lived so outside of herself for so long, I am passionate about building a new kind of compassionate and partnership-based relationship with my own body. I want to embrace aging as a blessing and gift rather than a curse.

    I work with body reconnection and embodiment through somatic movement practices, functional fitness coaching and self-compassion based ritual so we can begin to love and feel safe inside of these brilliant bodies.

  • Being a human means seeking a connection to something greater than ourselves. Remembering our connection to Nature.

    So many of us have confused beliefs and feelings about what it means to be “spiritual”. I’m here to tell you that whatever this looks like for you, is perfect, and that what you seek is seeking you. You already are spiritual just by being you. It is not something outside of you.

    That said, our connection and practice will not look the same for you as it does for anyone else. Your relationship to Source is yours.

    Let’s find your way back or deeper into relationship so that you can live your life connected into the Great Mystery and the natural world around you.

    Additionally, we don’t have many resources these days as we navigate the mass spiritual awakening happening on our planet at this time. If you’ve felt alone, please know that you’re not. I can help to normalize the experience for you.

    By connecting back to our dreams, ancestors, nature and spiritual guides, we can find our own inner source of support.

  • Our minds are unique and brilliant. The way each one of us thinks, believes, creates - what a gift! That said we live in a time and culture of massive pressure and complications which can create havoc within with no time to slow down and listen to the inner voice of the heart. Cultivating presence is challenging. To add to it, some of us have minds that see things different, more complicated, more magical.

    This can all require some guidance to feel empowered within our own minds long enough to BE with our emotions and become embodied in the present moment.

    I offer guided meditation and tangible, accessible practices to bring grounding & presence into your day-to-day that fit your own personal needs and schedule.

  • Want to hear something funny? I signed up for a Ceritification program years back to become an “Eco-Psychologist”. A few weeks in, I bounced. This was already what I knew in my bones. Nature has been my Mother, my confidant, my healer and my teacher for as long as I can remember. I believe this is true for all of us.

    Connecting to nature is how we find home. Together we will explore self-care rituals and practices to get you back to the natural world and therefore, back to yourself.

  • We cannot truly connect to ourselves, our bodies or our dreams unless we connect to our emotions. Dreams primarily operate in emotion. We have to know how we feel to understand how to move forward.

    Emotional Intelligence and connection is at the core of what I do. I want to help guide you to a place of knowing and friendship with each and every one of your emotions to see their magic and beauty.

    I believe all emotions have a purpose and a message for us, we just have to feel empowered within to begin to slow down long enough to hear their wisdom. No matter our focus, this is something we will continually work on together. Emotions are tied to the body, so all of my somatic work will help support this investigation and relationship as well.

  • Living a creative life doesn’t mean that you have to be an artist creating paintings or sculptures. It means that you get to tap into the way your own brilliant soul expresses itself and sees this incredible world. It’s about learning to see the world symbolically - like a dream.

    Living a creative life means tuning into your intuition and your own unique expression be it ideas, actions, creations, etc. It begins with giving yourself permission to live life your own unique way so that you can open the door for magic.

    Let’s find out what this means for you so you can continue to bring your gifts to the world.

  • Feeling empowered to speak our needs in our relationships (personal and professional) begins with us. We need to understand ourselves and our own wounding in order to be able to understand someone else.

    I utilize attachment-style coaching and somatic attachment repair to work with understanding and gently tending to yourself so that you can feel empowered to show up for others.

    Together we can work to create safety within so you can find your voice, understand your needs and show up from a powerful & compassionate place in any relationship.

  • Just like in relationships, it’s hard to show up for ourselves in our outer life at work or in our business if we don’t know how to feel empowered within.

    I can help to guide you into a place that helps you find solace and gratitude within yourself so that you can show up with grace, authenticity and authority in your work. My experience in marketing and business can translate into guiding you in your professional life so you can feel confident to take the next steps forward, wherever you’re at.

  • To understand how to recover from something, one has to have done the work to remove the thing that distracted us so heavily from living our lives. These things siphon our power/our energy reserves, but we have to explore them with gentleness and love because the root of addiction and recovery stems from a time when there was a lack of love.

    Personally, it has been a hard journey to seeing how much I want to distract when things get challenging or hard. I am always working to recognize and remove anything that takes my power away but it has certainly required support within and without. And I am nowhere near done with this journey. I am always a work in progress.

    I believe that there is immense empowerment that comes with the removal of anything that has taken hold and keeps us stuck or distracted. This requires the calling back of of our power, because I do not personally believe we are powerless in these situations. They just require immense recognition, self-dedication and grace.

    Together we can investigate these energy leaks no matter the source. And know that I am in this with you.

We’re All Just Figuring it Out.

I’m right there with you in the trenches of life. When we see ourselves in another and realize we’re not alone, we can begin to feel safe to explore what it is we truly need and want out of this life within ourselves and each other. Additionally, the wisdom of our magical bodies and the realm of the soul and spirit can help lead the way.

Commonly Asked Questions About
Soul Therapy:

  • Soul Therapy is a mix of Spiritual Mentorship, Somatic Embodiment, Emotional Intelligence, Soul-forward coaching, Spiritual Inquiry, Dreamwork and Creative Expression. It is best for anyone feeling a calling to something that traditional talk therapy hasn’t been able to reach. Soul Therapy works to help to create full empowerment within yourself through a mix of modalities and methods that you have the capacity to honor within.

  • I hold most of my Soul Therapy Sessions online via Zoom. When weather permits and depending on the need of the session, sessions can also be held somewhere in nature within the Santa Cruz or San Jose area. I am also able to rent an office space by session when requested for an additional minor cost.

    My supplemental add-on sessions can vary depending on the type. Reach out to me to discuss.

  • I let you lead the way. These sessions are for you and I will intuitively guide you based on what it seems like would best support. Ways we could work together in a single session:

    • Holding space to talk through a particular life situation, challenge or question

    • Utilizing Dreamweaving Tarot for guidance to a particular life concern

    • Working through “dream mapping”. This could look like working through themes of dreams over the course of a specific timeframe to uncover the wisdom of your soul via a series of dreams.

    • Guided somatic movement or personalized meditation for regulation and connection

    • Eastern Somatic Attachment Repair sessions to connect to your inner child needing support from within the body

    • Cultivation of a ritual, ceremony or mindful practice for a specific area of your life

    • Creative expression sessions and/or creative writing exercises

    • Active imagination guided meditation to connect to spirit guides and ancestral support

    • In-person guided nature mindfulness walks

  • I offer 60 and 90 minute sessions.

  • These immersive experiences are sacred. They are for individuals who are either looking to establish a ritualistic and sacred reconnection to their dream world OR a deep opportunity to spend time exploring a “big” dream. These big dreams can be initiations, visitations, numinous, or dream travel/out of body/lucid experiences.

    This is an opportunity to allow for the time needed to honor your dreams and these special gifted experiences in ways that will provide the space needed to cultivate a deeper resonance and relationship to the wisdom of the dream realm.

  • Soul Therapy sessions can happen as much as you’d like. Think of them like going to the gym for your intuition and soul. In my experience, weekly sessions have been INCREDIBLE at deepening the connection to ourselves.

    That said, we don’t all have access to the time, energy or resources for that, so the answer is, it’s up to you!

    The amount of dedication you show your yourself and your soul’s calling in this way is equivalent to the amount of support it will provide back whether that is with me in session or on your own with them.

    Most of my clients range from seeing me every other week to once a month — integrating as-needed sessions as necessary.

  • Embodied Dream Therapy is a combination of : empowerment coaching and embodied dreamwork. It is not traditional “therapy” nor is it a replacement for traditional therapy. I utilize this term because it is an approachable way to understand this work.

    What it really means is that it is a therapeutic approach to working with your life and nighttime dreams.

    I always recommend having previous experience with or current access to, a psychotherapist or psychologist while doing this work should something arise that could use additional support.

  • Absolutely! My Soul Therapy and Dreamkeeping Dreamwork apply the same techniques and cost the same, so we can absolutely hold a deeper session to uncover the mystery of a single dream together. The only difference is that we might book extra time or an additional session to dive into the deeper personal realms of what the dream is asking to be integrated. When we “work” a single nighttime dream, we are essentially trying to sort out its meaning and ask of us. We could take a single dream and work to uncover what the dream is saying to you — what it’s asking of you in order to move forward into your highest and best version of yourself.

    I utilize a somatic and embodied approach to my dreamwork along with many Jungian and Tibetan Dream Yoga practices. Together we will work with guided meditation, gentle somatic practices and the Tarot to enhance your intuitive muscle and a deeper understanding of the dream’s symbolic message.

    My hope is that you leave a session with me feeling more connected to your dream’s wisdom, your body, and your spirit with an action in-hand to take your dream into the waking world and cultivate positive change in your life.
