Philosophy of Shamanic Healing
These healing traditions are honored with deep respect, offered ethically, and grounded in humility and service. I walk this path because I’ve been called to it—guided by the wisdom of my ancestors and supported by the Native and Celtic lineages that inform my work. It has taken over a decade of personal healing, deep study, and spiritual growth to stand publicly in this work with confidence and integrity.
Traditionally, healing was never something one could charge for—but those same traditions also ensured their healers were supported by the community. In today’s world, energy exchange looks different. While I do charge for sessions, no one is turned away for financial reasons. If you need support, you’re warmly invited to book a free consultation and we’ll find an exchange that works for both of us.
Although rooted in ancient techniques, every session is personalized—to your experience, your goals, and your healing path.
Overview of Shamanic Healing Techniques
Power Animal Retrieval
Power Animal Retrieval is a shamanic technique that reconnects you with a benevolent animal Spirit guide—often one you were once close to but have lost touch with over time. This spiritual ally offers you strength, protection, and healing when you need it most, lending their energy to support you through challenges or transformation.
This is not just symbolic—it’s a real relationship, like any other. It deepens through attention, gratitude, gifts, and time spent together. Power Animals are loyal companions who show up to empower you, walk beside you, and remind you of who you truly are.
Want to learn more? This article about Power Animal Retrieval is an excellent introduction.
Extraction: Releasing What Doesn't Belong
Humans have been throwing energetic darts at each other since the dawn of time—anger, blame, jealousy, fear. Picture this: you’re in traffic, keeping a safe distance, and the driver behind you is honking, yelling, and seething with frustration. That emotional outburst? It’s an energetic dart.
Sometimes, those darts land. We absorb the energy—blame ourselves, feel shame, or carry emotions that were never ours to begin with. Over time, these uninvited “inclusions” in the energy field can create emotional heaviness, fatigue, disconnection, and even physical illness.
Shamanic Extraction identifies and gently removes these foreign energies, creating space for relief, clarity, and emotional freedom. You may leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and deeply unburdened.
Aura Clearing and Vogel Wand Extraction
The extraction process I offer blends time-honored traditions with modern spiritual tools—grounded in deep respect for my teachers and guides.
I combine core shamanic techniques (as taught by the Foundation for Shamanic Studies) with:
Aura Clearing passed down from Hawaiian Kahunas and taught by William Rand, honoring its origins and permissions;
I often use a Vogel Wand as taught by Laurelle Gaia using a precision crystal tool designed by Marcel Vogel;
My own angelic channeling and advanced inter-dimensional “sorting,” influenced by sacred geometry concepts shared in The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life.
Soul Retrieval: Reclaiming Lost Parts of Yourself
Sometimes, we lose pieces of ourselves—not physically, but energetically. Soul loss can happen after trauma, grief, heartbreak, or long periods of stress. But it can also occur in joyful or meaningful moments—when we give a part of ourselves in love, in service, or during deeply transformative experiences. Over time, these lost fragments can leave us feeling disconnected, emotionally numb, chronically tired, or simply not like ourselves.
Soul Retrieval is a sacred, compassionate process to help bring those missing pieces back.
In this session, I journey on your behalf to locate and reintegrate lost soul fragments—always with care, respect, and in alignment with your highest good.
This technique can also be adapted into an energetic exchange, offering a powerful way to close relationships that have ended physically but remain energetically unresolved. Whether you’re navigating a breakup, deep loss, or the end of a life chapter, this version of Soul Retrieval helps bring closure, clarity, and peace.
Many clients experience renewed vitality, emotional healing, and a deeper sense of wholeness. It may feel like remembering a version of yourself you hadn’t realized you were missing.
This isn’t just healing—it’s coming home to yourself.
Psychopomp
The word psychopomp comes from the Greek meaning “guide of souls.” In shamanic healing, this sacred practice supports spirits of the deceased who may be stuck, lost, or unable to fully transition. Sometimes souls linger due to confusion, trauma, unfinished business, or strong attachments to the living. Their presence can subtly affect people or places—manifesting as emotional heaviness, energetic unease, or spiritual dissonance.
Psychopomp work is not ghost hunting. It is a loving, respectful act of service—guided by compassion, clear boundaries, and deep reverence for all beings, embodied or not. All consciousness has free will. This work honors that sovereignty, even in disembodied form.
Sometimes, this practice is appropriate for those nearing death. For individuals in hospice or palliative care, the technique shifts to support a gentle, conscious release—helping the soul learn to step out of the body on their own terms, with confidence and peace.
Psychopomp support may be appropriate when:
A death was sudden, traumatic, or emotionally unresolved.
You sense a spiritual presence that feels stuck or distressed.
Your home or land carries a persistent heaviness or unrest.
You wish to support a loved one in crossing peacefully.
This work is often quiet but deeply transformative—clearing spiritual congestion, restoring balance, and honoring death as a sacred transition, not an ending.

Logistics and FAQ
The options are available to add to any session, simply request them at the time of your appointment. Currently, they can only be added at the session.
How long is a session?
The initial consultation will run about 50 minutes to an hour. There may be one or two journeys during this time, depending on your questions, and intentions when you arrive.
It may be possible to complete the necessary work in that single hour, or additional sessions may be required. If the session can be completed during the first visit, the client will be expected to pay the remaining amount owed for the 1 hour session (hourly rate is $100/hour).
Guidance usually advises that work be done in a certain order, and that clients space the various treatments out so that this work does not cause a healing crisis. There needs to be time to adjust to each technique before starting the next session.
Expect that for complicated cases, where the client is in a great deal of distress or coping with serious injury or illness, that multiple visits will be required. For example, the initial consultation may include a Power Animal Retrieval, and an extraction is done in a follow up visit, then a Soul Retrieval and Cord Cutting completes the series later. Time to heal and integrate will be given to let the client cope with shifts in a manageable way.
Are sessions available remotely?
Yes. All shamanic sessions are available via private video conferencing call. This allows you to receive powerful healing in your own sacred space. You’ll need a quiet, private area, a place to lie down comfortably, and headphones if possible.
Understand that electronics often misbehave with this sort of work, and that the work will still continue remotely even if the internet connection fails. You will be contacted by phone call or text to continue when the current work is complete.
What does a session feel like?
Clients often report feeling deeply relaxed, peaceful, emotionally lighter, or even energized. You may experience vivid visuals, sensations, or emotional releases. Sometimes, insight comes days later in dreams, or in synchronicities. The pacing and repetitive nature of hte Shamanic drum has been used for millennia to induce altered states in humans for just this sort of work. You may find the constant beat of the drum very transportive and comforting.
What should I do to prepare?
You’ll receive preparation suggestions when you book, including how to set up your space if you plan to have a remote session, and some suggestions of what to bring with you for an in-person session (a blanket, water, yoga mat, comfortable clothes, and clear intentions). If you’re unsure, you’re welcome to schedule a free 15-minute consultation first to find out if this modality is right for you and your needs.
Do I need prior experience or belief in Spirit?
Not at all. This work is for anyone open to healing. You don’t need to follow a particular belief system–just come with respect and curiosity. Remember, humans have been healing this way for generations upon generations, and all the techniques have common elements across all the inhabited continents. Your ancestors have got this.
Can this be combined with Reiki or massage?
Absolutely! Many clients find combining modalities, such as a Reiki follow-up after an extraction, enhances their integration and healing. Discount or bundle pricing may be available if you want to add Reiki or Bodywork sessions to the Shamanic Healing plan. Be sure to mention it during your consultation.
Is this work safe for people with trauma?
Yes–with care and moving slowly through the treatment plan. Amy holds trauma-informed space with compassionate, slow, and choice-centered healing. If you’re working with a therapist, this work can be a supportive complement. If you’re unsure, please book a free call to discuss fit and timing.

When to Stretch
Many of us were taught that stretching should happen BEFORE we get active–to avoid injury. If you were taught this I’m not going to call you old–not without calling myself old first. However, we’ve learned some things since we were taught this.
