Healer & Death priestess
Healer & Death priestess
Welcome Home, Precious soul
"They sang don't waste your hate
Rather gather and create
Be of service
Be a sensible person
Use your words and don't be nervous
You can do this, you've got purpose
Find your medicine and use it"
-Nahko and Medicine For The People
I Am…
I have a colorful background with a common thread of healing throughout. My heart is here to love and hold you as I walk by your side and gently guide you into alignment with your true self. My various healing modalities will move you forward, help you let go, live more deeply and purposefully, and simply light your inner fire.
With a life long passion for the healing arts, in 2006 I received my B.S. from Lesley University in Art Therapy, and although I started pursuing Expressive Therapy to become a LMHC, the Universe had others plans for me as a healer. The story continues below, and as some of my own intense stuff surfaced I had to face (ahem, anxiety!), I decided to leave grad school to understand and heal myself.
Since then I have immersed myself in holistic healing and my own spirituality for personal growth and awareness, focusing on healing the anxiety I was experiencing. I started seeing an amazing holistic therapist, and something within me woke up and I just knew energy healing was part of my path as a facilitator of healing.
From there I became an advanced reiki practitioner in 2010 with Christine Radice of Boston Reiki. Before any of this though, I was gifted my first oracle deck. These cards have been a huge part of my healing journey. As my skills of being a spirit speaker + channeler developed, I have gathered more oracle decks and have been offering readings for many years now. In 2011 I went to the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and became a certified Holistic Health Coach.
As my journey unfolded and I dove into Buddhism, meditation, yoga, and waking my true self up (or I was being smacked by the Universe;) more through life inquiry, workshops, and trainings. Through Coby Kozlowski, one of my greatest teachers, I became a certified Souluna Life Coach in 2012 . Coaching is my true love and foundation for how I approach my work. I always tell my clients “In life coaching, we can literally coach on anything—it’s life!”.
My love and belief in energy healing has led to me to study energy medicine further. As of 2014, I received my license as a Chakradance Facilitator from Natalie Southgate, combining movement and the chakra system as a way to tap into the body’s wisdom and heal.
Jumping back again, when I left grad school I didn't know what to do, so literally the first thing I did that week was reach out to a massage school. I ultimately decided I loved receiving massage, didn't want to give it, and would stay with offering energy work.
AND THEN... enter Hawaiian shamanic bodywork--lomilomi massage!! A friend brought her teacher from Hawaii to Vermont, and without finishing reading the lomilomi class description, I was so in!
This massage work is beyond beautiful, and in 2015 I started practicing Hawaiian lomilomi which wove together my energy work, channeling, and coaching background.
I have been lucky to learn from Kumu Wayne Kealohi Powell, Kahuna Harry Uhane Jim and Sila Jim, and my dear friend with blessings from Wayne, Bethany Boulger.
It also led me to come full circle and actually go to massage school after all...this I didn't see coming AND I'm SO glad I did! In 2018 I graduated from Spa Tech Institute (Ipswich MA) and became a licensed holistic massage therapist. What makes it holistic? A combination of Polarity Therapy, a type of mind/body/spirit/lifestyle energy work was a part of my training, with massage, coaching, and channeling work.
Somewhere in there I also completed a level 1 and level ll Akashic Records Reading Training with my dear friend and teacher Liz Varney. What's true is the Akashic brought me back home to remember what I know and seriously advanced my intuitive and channeling abilities.
In 2021 I graduated from Flower and Stars Narrative Astrology program through Grace Harrington Murdoch. Much like I came here as a healer and a channel, I've been a forever student of astrology and this program helped me remember what I've brought from past lives around astrology living in my bones. I just know it.
Has that ever happened to you? You just know something--or it feels like you're remembering something deep within, like you've been taught that thing before?
After years of working with those that have crossed over, I had quite the experience in the summer of 2023 when one of my best friends dad unexpectedly passed. It was an experience that said “Christabeth, it’s time….” so I found a beautiful Core Shamanism course at Spirit Wellness Institute with Catheryn Schoenfarber, and began my Energy Medicine path through this work in 2023.
The purpose was to prep me for her Touch For End Of Life Care course so I could hone my skills of death priestessing and death transitional care.
I know teach Touch For End Of Life Care at Spirit Wellness Institute!
As for being a magic conjurer--that's who I came here as and will leave here as. Magic is everywhere in everything.
We each are magical, and we each are healers--in our own ways.
