Shamanic Mentorship FAQ
Why is a consultation required for Shamanic Mentorship and Spiritual Coaching?
I personally interview all potential clients to make sure we are a great fit to work together. A consultation gives me the opportunity to assess your needs so I can offer the best support for your path. If for any reason I believe another practitioner or offering would be a better fit for you, I will make a recommendation or referral accordingly. Schedule your consultation here.
How is Shamanic Mentorship different from therapy or life coaching?
Shamanism is an ancient wisdom tradition rooted in animistic consciousness, intuition, deep inquiry, Earth Wisdom and mystical teachings. It incorporates a holistic approach to spiritual, emotional, mental and physical well-being. Shamanic mentorship draws upon many tools of Shamanic healing, ritual, meditation, somatic awareness and movement practice for the purpose of accessing deep wisdom and aligning one’s life with powerful spiritual forces. Shamanic mentorship is not, nor does it replace, medical treatment, therapy, counseling or psychoanalysis. While Shamanic mentorship draws upon coaching as a tool for processing and inquiry, it extends far beyond the scope of life coaching to include Shamanic practices and techniques.
What is the difference between Shamanic mentorship and Shamanic healing?
Shamanic mentorship is a longer, more in-depth container that includes not only Shamanic healing, but also training and instruction in Shamanic practices and energy techniques. Shamanic healing is ideal for people who wish to receive direct support for a personal healing challenge. Shamanic mentorship is for people who not only want to receive healing support, but also spiritual guidance, teaching, accountability and long-term growth and transformation. I offer both — let’s talk and see which path of support is right for you!
Do I need prior experience with Shamanism to work with you?
No. I support people at all levels of experience in Shamanism. However, I have found that clients who come into this work with at least a basic understanding of energy, personal growth and meditation are able to access deeper levels of transformation and feel more confident implementing new tools into their practice. Unsure if this is right for you? That’s why I require consultations with every potential client so we can make sure this work is the best fit for your journey. Book your consultation here.
Can Shamanic mentorship be done online?
Yes! Shamanic mentorship sessions are available online via Zoom for clients worldwide, with the same depth and effectiveness as in-person sessions. I recommend remote clients set themselves up in a quiet space to receive their Shamanic mentorship sessions with minimal interruptions or distractions.
What results can I expect from Shamanic mentorship?
You are fully responsible for your results in this work. While I am absolutely convinced that you will derive great benefits from Shamanic mentorship and that you will get out of it as much as you desire, I of course cannot guarantee specific results. I can guarantee, however, that you will receive deep, personalized support for your unique journey. You will learn a lot of usable and applicable tools that, when followed by others, have achieved great results. Check out the “Client Love” section below for some of the great things that prior Shamanic Mentorship and Spiritual Coaching clients have to share about their experience in this work.
How do I schedule my sessions?
Once you're enrolled, you'll receive a private booking link to schedule your sessions as you like. You are responsible for putting yourself on my calendar. Sessions must be used within 6 months.
What if I can't get a time I want or I don't use all my sessions?
If there are absolutely no booking times that work for your schedule, please let me know and we can work it out. Sessions do not roll over from month to month, so please make sure to use them! Sessions that are unused by the end of the month expire, unless you arrange otherwise with me at least two weeks in advance.
Where do we meet?
If you are in the Portland area, you are welcome to come meet with me in person at my temple home on sacred forested land in the Columbia River Gorge. If you’re not local or prefer to meet virtually, we’ll meet on Zoom.
How long are Shamanic Mentorship and spiritual Coaching sessions?
Shamanic mentorship and spiritual coaching sessions are 75-90 minutes long. I recommend you block out a little extra space in your calendar so you can integrate and be present with the energies after your session.
How will I know if I'm accepted?
I personally interview all potential clients. If it feels like we're a great fit to work together, I will invite you to come work with me!
