Work With Me
Where the body
learns
to remember
Ancestral remembrance, dream midwifery and soul reclamation tending ~ for those ready to enter the deeper layers of what it means to be alive with the wider field of kinship.
There are ways of speaking with the unseen that do not begin in language, ways of entering relationship that arise through the body’s memory of rhythm, attention, and reciprocity.
My Approach
Co-conspirators in Restoration
I enter this work as a co-conspirator in the weaving of vitality and inner kinship. Thirty years of ritual practice and spiritual healing have shaped my listening, yet what I offer is not repair of what is broken. It is the remembering of what has always been alive beneath fragmentation.
My role is to tend the threshold and to help illuminate the path where embodiment deepens, where the body begins to speak its older intelligence, and where sovereignty is re-membered in breath, bone, and story through ritual and reverence, through the following pathways:
Ancestral Reverence
Ancestral Reverence emphasizes animist pathways of connection, reweaving the fabric of torn kinship.
This work invites direct, embodied relationships with supportive guides and venerated ancestors of our blood, our belonging, and our bonds of care. Through embodied listening and ritual acts of repair, held in a boundaried, ritually safe, grounded sacred space, inherited burdens are gradually composted into wisdom and resilience. Pathways open toward clarity, resourcefulness, and rooted belonging.
Dream Midwifery
Dream Midwifery, the sweet liminal place between waking and dreaming is a land rich with your personal metaphors waiting to be witnessed and birthed into being.
Our work entails entering the threshold where sleep and waking braid together, learning to listen as kin rather than interpret from a distance. Dreaming is remembered through body and journal, re-entered for deeper counsel, and tracked as a living current that continues into waking life through synchronicity. What is received is not held apart, but carried into embodied action. This is tending the dream as living relation, where the unseen keeps speaking and we learn to answer.
Soul Reclamation Tending
Soul reclamation work as rituals of healing, the return to the liminal ground where what has been lost, scattered, or exiled begins to gather itself back into form.
Many arrive here carrying the weight of imbalance and disharmony—persistent bereavement, helplessness, incompleteness, isolation, fragmentation, or a sense of being unmoored from the body and the world. These states may signal soul loss, power loss, fragmentation, or the presence of the dispossessed moving through one’s inner landscape. Our work enters the threshold where these disturbances are not pathologized but met as meaningful signals, as invitations toward reclamation. Through ritual attention, we listen for what has slipped beyond the edges of awareness, and we begin to call it back—slowly, carefully, in relationship with breath, image, and embodied presence.
Ritual is one way we answer what history has left unresolved.
Welcome, I’m Shannon.
If you are carrying something that has not found its right container, old grief, unresolved pain, a life that has gone quiet in places it once moved, or an obstacle that has rooted and won’t yield, as you breath that deep breathe, that lingering sigh, I’m here.
I have been sitting with people in this work long enough to hear what moves beneath the surface before it has words. That depth of practice has taught me one thing above all: what you carry is not too much. There is nothing you need to minimize or explain away before walking through this door.
Some things cannot be fixed. They can only be tended.
The work we do together is rooted in the body, guided by your ancestors and helping spirits, and shaped by the understanding that healing is not a private act. It belongs to lineage. It belongs to the land. Together we tend what has hardened, clear what obstructs, and restore movement where life has grown still.
There are many pathways to work with me through one-on-one sessions. These include ancestral healing of blood and bone, exploration of affinity lineages, rituals of reconnection with the more-than-human world, land clearing ceremonies, and soul reclamation work. The soul reclamation sessions weave together extraction, soul retrieval, and psychopomp practices in service of restoring wholeness, clearing what does not belong, and tending the return of what has been lost or fragmented.
Alongside this, I also offer mentorship for those seeking a deeper and more sustained engagement with this work. Mentoring is a space for unfolding practice, for strengthening relational attunement with land, ancestors, and spirit, and for developing the capacity to walk these thresholds with greater steadiness, clarity, and care. It is a place where the work can mature over time, supported through ongoing guidance and presence.
Across all of this, the work is guided by what is most needed in the moment, and by a commitment to restoring belonging, sovereignty, and relationship with the living world, the ancestors, and the deeper threads of life that hold us.
What returns, through this work, is not a new self. It is the one who was always there, waiting to come home.

Mentoring is catered to your specific needs. It can be bi weekly, or monthly, In 3 month or year long immersions.You may feel the pull of this work if…
- Something in you knows what you carry did not begin with you. It has roots, tendrils, a long memory that reaches through bone and story into the ancestors and the wider field of becoming.
- You move through the world as if it is listening back. The land is not backdrop but relative. Stones, rivers, weather, breath all speaking in their own dialects of aliveness.
- You have sat in rooms of language and insight, and they have given you something real. Still, there is a deeper chamber that words alone cannot reach.
- There is a stirring you cannot quite name. A calling that feels like both inheritance and initiation. Something in you that knows it has work to do, though the shape is not yet formed.
- Grief waits at the threshold. You can feel its weight, its intelligence, and also the fear of how vast it might be once opened.
- You are longing for a way of prayer that is not recited but lived. Something woven through daily gestures, in conversation with your dead, your dreams, and the more-than-human world.
- You are willing to enter the unknown. To listen differently. To be undone and remade by what meets you in ritual, in dreaming, in the subtle negotiations of attention.
This may not be the right terrain if…
- You are seeking support that lives primarily in conversation and cognitive understanding. That work matters, and there are skilled hands devoted to it.
- You want grief to quiet itself without being met. To be managed rather than apprenticed to.
- You are looking for something fixed, singular, and certain, rather than a path that is alive, entangled, and shaped through relationship.
- You prefer to remain within ordinary states of awareness, without crossing into trance, reverence, or the altered textures of sacred attention.
- You feel closed to the possibility that connection continues beyond the visible world.
- You want to work only within the boundaries of your individual story, without entering the longer arc of lineage, land, and the shared field of being.
Let's find out if we're a
good fit?
Exploratory calls are held virtually via phone. If you are international, we will connect via Zoom.
If we have worked together previously, you can book directly. If you are in need of Soul reconnection work, are new to ritual practice or working with me, then please do connect with me initially. No obligations, just an honest conversation about where you are and where you are being called.
You do not need to be certain to begin. You need to be willing to enter the conversation.
Sliding Scale and Accessiblity
- This work is meant to remain within reach. The listed rates are a baseline, a place to begin the conversation. If the exchange feels beyond your current capacity, reach out. We will listen for what is possible together.
- Those who have greater access to resources are invited to contribute more when they can. In this way, the field is resourced collectively, and the work remains open to those who feel its call.
Cancelation
- This work unfolds within a living rhythm. When you need to shift a session, please do so with as much notice as possible. One week is ideal. Two days is the minimum needed to honor the space being held.
- Sessions changed within 48 hours are held as complete, and the full exchange remains. This protects the time and preparation that have already been given to the work.
- On the rare occasion I need to reschedule within that same window, we will find a new time, and I will offer a complimentary session in gratitude for your flexibility and care for the container.
