What does it mean to be human and how to do it well?
My deepest call of service has always been to support people in living their best life possible while maintaining contact with their own inner compass (and figuring out how to do this myself!) All of my education, training and experience has been focused with this intention in mind. The common thread through all of my offerings is tending my clients and their internal environment where they can discover their own answer to this question,
What does it mean to be human and how to do it well?

Spiritual Counseling with Depth Hypnosis and Shamanic Counseling
Are you ready to turn towards yourself?
Are you seeking to repair something within your relationship with Life?
Depth hypnosis and shamanic counseling are process oriented modalities that help clients find the tools and inner resources they need to step out of chaotic, dysfunctional and self-disrespecting patterns and sustainably step more fully into their own natural luminosity and self-expression. If you find there are repeating patterns around relationships, addictions/compulsions that run you, a difficult feeling or energy you can't seem to shake, troubles you seem to run into again and again, corrosive inner conflict, a spiritual experience you don't know how to integrate, a sense that you 'haven't been the same since' some past event, if you continue to have difficulty with self-respect or self-worth even after doing loads of therapy or self-help work, or if you simply feel called to do deeper repair work around wounds and traumas of the past, consider working with me in the container of Depth Hypnosis and Shamanic Counseling (DH/SC).
DH/SC are process oriented modalities that allow for exploration of Self in altered states. 'Altered state' meaning employing our direct awareness to access that which lies behind the scenes of our thoughts and narratives regarding who we are and what is. These are modalities that lead individuals into more direct contact of what is shaping one's experience and integrating shamanic practices related to "calling back" and empowering essential-self energy. This is very powerful work for clearing the cellular charges around past traumas and reconnecting one to levels of clarity, playfulness, creativity, innocence and the like that are endogenous to ones' being.
The path of Depth Hypnosis and Shamanic Counseling harmonizes well for those who have explored themselves in therapeutic settings and for those who have explored their inner world through other mind-opening means including meditation and psychedelics.
This is process oriented work and as such one must be in the position to put time, energy and financial resources towards the shift one longs for: there is a minimum of 3 sessions required to begin this work and for those called to work with me over longer periods, I am happy to work out personalized packages that best suite my clients circumstances.
Why would one want to work together over a longer period, say 3-6 months? Usually one experiences the benefit of DH/SC (altered state work) within the first few sessions. As one discovers the level of insight that is made available, some folks find a readiness and willingness to untangle deeper layers of significant spiritual or ancestral karmas that need consistent time and energy to unravel while integrating changes within the personality level.
The first 10 minutes of this video speaks to the process of Depth Hypnosis, in which I am certified.

Mindful Life Coach
I help people get stuff done and not abandon their heart and soul in the process.
Once upon a time I thought I was going to change the world with nutrition. I was on my way to becoming a clinical dietician when my naïveté bubble burst. Here's what I learned between the lines: People have to want to change and information in and of itself is not the best motivator (especially with dietary changes!). It serves people to understand their interior landscape well enough in order to plant correctly life altering shifts that are sustainable (changes must be sustainable!!!). Additionally, and this is very often left out of awareness practices, people have to understand the exterior landscape of social norms, conditioning and epigenetics well enough to become a boss with healthy boundaries and really cognize what is one's own responsibility within their experience on every level of said experience.
I don't do nutritional or dietetic consulting anymore however I bring it forward because it very much informs the roots of the coaching aspect of my practice. My background in nutrition and as well as my experience with subtle-body dynamics, instill me with a unique way of supporting coaching clients that is holistic, grounded in science and functional medicine while never excluding the tidal impact of mental/emotional/spiritual reality on our perception, experiences and potency in action.
I help people get stuff done and not abandon their heart and soul in the process.

Notes about preparations, timing and after care:
-I do my best to start and end sessions on time.
-If it appears that it would be beneficial to spend a little more time together, I will do my very best to communicate and ask if that is welcome/doable.
-I do include buffers of time between clients so that transitions can be smooth and made with ease. While I do not expect gratuity for any of my services, I will offer a pay scale that reflects the time scheduled and the time spent (should we go over) in session.
-Please do not imbibe in alcohol, mind-altering substances or non-medically prescribed pharmaceuticals 24 hours before or 24 hours after DH/SC sessions. I'm happy to discuss why this is important, but don't worry, the CBD gummies you use for sleep are not going to be an issue.
-Please schedule your sessions so that you have TIME and SPACE afterwards to stay tuned into yourself. Perhaps space to take a walk, sit with a tree, journal, or take a nice long soak.
Disclaimer: Please keep in mind, these sessions are not a substitute for diagnosis of disease/disorder. Each person’s healing journey is unique: where you are is perfect and where you can go is limitless. I absolutely suggest having a knowledgeable and loving team to support you, your health and your life’s goals.
:::Testimonials:::
Teresa is a true and gifted healer. I have worked with all manner of health providers throughout my life and I can say with all sincerity and seriousness that she is the most supportive, intelligent and effective of them all. I started working with Teresa three and half years ago after a troubling health diagnosis. Thrown into fear and uncertainty, I desperately needed someone to help me navigate my emotions and support my physical body for the best possible outcome. She works on multiple levels - spiritual, emotional, mental, somatic, ancestral, metaphysical - draws from so many different wisdom traditions, and is adaptable and skilled according to what I need that week. Her breadth of knowledge, understanding and intuition are amazing. She has opened me up to so many ideas and insights about myself, helping me to help myself. Most recently we started working together ‘remotely’, and our sessions are as impactful and powerful as ever before. It continually amazes me what I learn from her, how tuned in she is to me, and how much I gain from having her to coach and guide me. I will always consider it one of the greatest gifts that she is in my life, and I look forward to a continued and long working relationship with her!

The COVID-19 pandemic has called on all of us to summon courage and faith and adjust our lives, work, how we interact and get our needs met. I am a regular client of Teresa and have taken transformational steps in my life over the last two years with the help of Teresa’s wide range of healing arts and exceptional intuitive skills. Last week, just when I needed support as I work long hours on the emergency response, I experienced a long-distance healing from Teresa that was as powerful as her in-person sessions. I could feel her and the Guides working at my crown and heart chakras, along my legs, and elsewhere. It was a remarkable experience of real time clearing and balancing of my energy field. One I can recommend to all at this time when we want to practice social distancing but benefit from the support we may need to stay centered and calm.

Dear Teresa, I want to express my deepest gratitude for the healing session you blessed me with. Since then I have felt centered and I remember my dreams (both asleep and the awake ones) again. The illuminated path you helped me re-encounter brought me back to my love of travel and volunteering. I am leaving for a Ugandan refugee camp with a medical NGO. You helped in my healing, and now I can help others. Thank you for sharing your gift!

I was fortunate to meet Teresa in the Spring of 2016, just as I was in the midst of an extraordinary high stress personal and professional time. From our very first session together, she was incredibly welcoming and supportive in helping me tap into what my body was communicating what it needed.
Our work together was truly underscored by how much of a collaborative process Teresa invited me to be a part of. She would encourage me to slow my breathing and gain clarity on what my body and psyche were communicating my area of focus for the session would need to be. From there she would access her toolkit of modalities (massage, reiki, craniosacral, etc.) and provide some of the most profound alternative medicine treatments I have ever received. These sessions helped me to ultimately process and recover from those stressful situations in my life, both personal and professional, that were resulting in off the charts cortisol levels.
RJ, consultant
Teresa has been an impeccable teacher & guide for me for several years. She holds immaculate space. Her prayers are beautiful and set a clear and safe container of gentleness and strength. Just yesterday I experienced a profound session with Teresa. There was so much sweetness and gentleness I was able to soften into the energy and allow my own body, spirit, soul and mind to open to this flow of light. As it washed over me, we both softly wept. Today I find my heart and channels clear and open. Deeply grateful for Teresa’s support and work with me as I continue my journey in this world; coming into alignment with my soul-self, supporting my body along the way.
KW, therapist
Teresa is truly a healer and has helped me immensely. I came to her after my husband passed and needed help reclaiming my life and my heart. She helped me with my spiritual pain, my physical pain and helped me find my center again. She's compassionate, intuitive, and very skilled in guiding you towards goals you might not even know you had. I highly recommend that you work with Teresa-you won't regret it.
MK, retired nurse
Teresa has had a wonderful, powerful effect on my life. I started having energy sessions with her in the fall of 2009. I didn’t know what to expect, and the truth is every session is entirely unique. She has serious medicine! I have
worked with her on many, many challenging situations in my life and I feel that her powers of healing have unblocked and smoothed out really discordant energies and patterns that were present.
