About Kristen

I am a shamanic practitioner and energy healer. 

The other roles I have in this life that might be less nebulous to you: I am a mom, an ISA certified Arborist, and I hold an MFA in creative writing from the University of Idaho and a BA in creative writing from the University of Arizona. 

I was drawn to energy healing and what I lovingly call the “woo woo” after I felt like I wasn’t making much progress in traditional talk therapy (despite having wonderful therapists that I actually felt connected to).

Energy healing gave me a new way to release old behavior patterns and to come back to my body and soul. It is a tool to access the deep parts of yourself that may have gotten lost in the shuffle of this life.

As mentioned above, my roles in this world were often beautiful but left me feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and engaging in dysfunctional patterns of behavior that I wasn’t happy with -- and who was Kristen in there? Like, the innermost Kristen -- what made my soul sing? 

It all seemed just beyond my reach and energy healing gave me a different lens to approach these issues and engage in the world in the way I wanted.

You, too, know what to do -- let’s work together to help you access the parts of yourself that hold those Truths. Some of your Truths with a capital T may have gotten “paralyzed” or stuck in trauma as we’ve moved through this world — let’s get them “unstuck.”

My goal is to facilitate and expedite your healing as you rediscover these Truths.
