All session are 45 mins
$30-$60 sliding scale for the remainder of 2024 as I learn and grow in my practice.

I am currently offering sessions at a lower rate than most because I believe it takes time to cultivate skill and because I'm in a process of refining my delivery while I work at decolonizing my practice and developing an offering rooted in my own ancestry. Of course this is a life-long learning/unlearning and not something I can easily accomplish by taking a short course. I have however been a clairvoyant working with energy since I was a young teenager. I received my first degree in Reiki in 2010 and my second degree in 2018 (meanwhile have been practicing mostly for free and developing skill since then). For the past few years I have been on a journey of digging up my own roots and slowly unlearning and divesting from harmful colonial ways that are insidious and hard to untangle but so incredibly important to continue chipping away at.

As a Pagan with Irish, Acadian, British & Scandinavian blood, I source my energetic knowledge base from the Druid belief that we can access universal life force energy both from the ground we walk upon and the Otherworld (the Celtic realm of the dead and deities) much like a tree can access the nutrients it needs through its root system, extending deep into the Earth and through its branches, reaching up to the sun and sky. We are not that different as energetic beings or as physical beings for that matter.

I named my practice Willow-Oak because these trees have modeled  strength, support and flexibility to me throughout my life when I most needed it. I am forever grateful to them and their deep wisdom.

We are inextricably linked and profoundly dependent upon our tree kin, to eat, to breathe, to heal, to exist here on this beautiful planet together in general. We are allies, always have been and always will be. My ancestors knew this intimately in ways I'm only beginning to understand now. I'm realizing it's a foundational relationship I want to inspire rekindling in my practice as well as encouraging others to rediscover and connect with their own practices, ancestors and lineages. 

The ways of our own people carry on in us, whether we are aware of it or not.  Incorporating working with the tree Ogham (pronounced Ow-uhm), with runes and Pagan deities into my practice has felt deeply aligned, healing, intuitive and of course is central to Celtic/Pagan spirituality.

As an energy healer/practitioner and also an imperfect human, I'm here to both share what I have learned, the skills I have honed over the years and to support you in further discovering your own innate ability to access the same universal life force energy in your own  way. I am also here to learn and grow in my practice from working with you as I believe each person brings a lifetime of wisdom and spiritual support to the table.

In the words of a dear friend who has since passed on to the Otherworld, "Healing is just so much about witnessing and holding. Healing is not about fixing things or taking away pain. It's about being with it, letting the wisdom in the pain soften us to it"

I think this is so true. Taking the time to lovingly pay attention to and be with our stuck places (our darkness) enables us to transform these energetic blocks back into light and a sense of vibrancy.
Through participating in energy work whether through a practice of our own, or with a practitioner, we grow our capacity to energetically relate to these tensions in ourselves differently by letting go of our resistance. We create more space to be with them, to learn from them, to evolve & grow, whatever our circumstance. I won't magically heal you in a single session but I can offer you the support you may need on your healing journey as you learn to heal yourself within the web of community, through your connection to Self & Source. Our bodies and our minds are wise given the right conditions. With the support we need, we will heal naturally which is its own special kind of magic.

All sessions come with a tree card and rune reading that I pick for you before hand with your highest good in mind. This additional offering is intended to be used as a guide for your soul's journey beyond your session to further support your healing.
