My Offerings: Shamanic Healing Sessions

As a Shamanic Arts Practitioner, I hold sessions that promote greater alignment with who you are, how you see yourself, and who you want to be in the world. I specialize in ancestral and intergenerational healing, i.e. addressing what has been inherited across generations. I believe healing begins with us. We are the curse breakers, everyday warriors, brave souls facing that which has haunted our families across generations, knowingly or not.

Let's dive in together. Book a FREE 15-minute consultation with me today.

I often work with people who are the first ones in their families to deeply pursue healing work in their lives so that what has been carried across generations can be transmuted and disinherited, so future generations can have greater access to their own choice and freedom. In addition to the shamanic arts, I am a Reiki Teacher (attuned to the "Master" level), embodied coach, and herbalist.

What is shamanic healing?

Shamanic energy healing work taps into the "unseen" realms: that which is spiritual, energetic, ancestral, in order to bring greater clarity, insight, and support to your life now in all ways. Practitioners utilize ancient tools and practices that are earth-based, connected to nature, and the four elements of water, wind air, and fire.  

Why book a shamanic healing session?

Shamanic healing work goes deep. If you have spent a lot of time analyzing a past event or situation, e.g. through talk therapy and journaling, and feel ready to take a major step to energetically cleanse and clear it, shamanic work may be what you are looking for.

You may find that a shamanic energy healing gets to the root of an event or situation, that would have otherwise taken much longer to reach when solely approached through mental processes. My approach is holistic and embodied.

What shamanic healing sessions do you offer?

I specialize in soul retrievals, past life regressions, and fire readings for ancestral connection. I also hold intuitive shamanic energy healing sessions and crystalline energy healing work with the vogel wand.

TESTIMONIES FROM PAST CLIENTS

My session with River felt like a pocket of time dedicated purely to breath. It was an opportunity to slow down and connect with the spiritual while being guided by River’s deep sensitivity, presence, and practice. I felt a little intimated before stepping into the session, but those feelings quickly fell away as he created a space that was friendly, warm, and intentional. I left the healing session feeling at once light and grounded, with spiritual guideposts and symbols that I still think about today.
— Philipe AbiYouness, Writer & Teaching Artist
River has such a gentle perceptiveness that really encouraged me to lean into truth through our session. From when he sent me my prep information to when we wrapped up, my spirit felt deeply sheltered and honored in its needs. It can be so easy living in the world to be distracted and lose sight of the compass of our hearts, working with River restored my sight of myself and was so sharply clarifying. Furthermore, River’s channeling and transference of reiki energy feels distinctly linked to his work as a writer. It’s a poetic making of something saturated in the dynamism of his presence and dedicated assurance.

FAQ

What should I expect from a shamanic healing session? This is new for me.

Every session of mine begins with a heart-to-heart talk, also known as a plática, where we discuss what is on your mind, heart, body, and spirit. What brings you here. From the insights and reflections shared during this time, I have a clearer idea of how to move forward in our energetic healing work together. I will then intuitively use specific healing tools and practices to support you in your healing work. Every session closes with a debrief and suggestions for take-home medicine and continued work. You can expect a session to take anywhere from 60 to 90 minutes depending on the work needed and requested. Please complete the form above to share with me what you are looking for and interested in working on.

Are your sessions in-person or virtual?

I offer both in-person and virtual sessions. I work with clients across time zones. Some shamanic healing sessions take place in-person because of the specific tools used for the healing work. During your consultation, I will let you know which ones I can hold online. In-person, we meet in my studio space in the city.

What are your COVID-19 protocols for in-person sessions?

Clients are asked to take a rapid COVID-19 test within 48 hours of the session, and to email a photo of negative results to River within that time (at least 24 hours beforehand). River maintains careful COVID-19 protocols in his daily life and stays masked in most indoor spaces. Should the client or practitioner feel any symptoms of COVID-19, such as sore throat, headache, or coughing within 48 hours of the session, you are advised to cancel, and can do so without incurring cancellation fees. If you feel more comfortable keeping your mask on during in-person sessions, you are welcome to do so as well. The same applies for if you would rather River also wear a mask.

How should I best prepare for a session?

After you book, more detailed instructions will be sent on how to best prepare for a session. For sessions that take place online, I recommend that you are in a quiet, comfortable space before, during, and after your session so that you can receive in optimal settings. It may be helpful to have a journal, pen, or paper near you, and also water to stay hydrated.

Will this heal me?

Healing is a process. It is also non-linear. The goal is not necessarily to be fully "healed" as that does not exist. My goal is for you to live a life feeling more choice, agency, and wholeness in who you are.
