Why People Come to Me

People often find their way to me during times of transition, awakening, uncertainty or change. They may feel disconnected from themselves, caught in old patterns, or aware that something within them is ready to shift—even if they cannot yet name what it is.

Some come seeking clarity or confirmation about what they are already sensing. Others want to connect more deeply with their intuition, receive guidance from Spirit, release emotions or energies they have been carrying, or simply feel seen and supported in a sacred, compassionate space.

You do not need to have any previous experience with shamanic healing, trance channeling, energy work or psychic guidance. You are welcome to arrive exactly as you are.

WHAT YOU MAY EXPERIENCE

Every session is different because every person—and every moment in that person’s life—is different.

Depending on what is needed, your session may include channeled guidance, connection with guides or loved ones in spirit, shamanic energy healing, light language, channeled song, emotional or energetic release, and messages from animals, plants, crystals, ancestors or other helping spirits.

You may receive clarity about something you have been moving through, confirmation of what your intuition has already been telling you, or a new understanding of yourself and your path. At times, the experience goes beyond words and is felt as an energetic remembering—a return to something true within you.

My role is not to tell you who to be or to heal you for you. My role is to listen, to bridge worlds, to hold a grounded and compassionate space, and to help you reconnect with your own inner knowing.

You remain in choice throughout the experience. Nothing is forced, and there is no particular way you are expected to respond. You are invited to receive what resonates and leave behind what does not.

THE PATH THAT BROUGHT ME HERE

I did not come to this work because I had everything figured out. I came to it through my own search for healing.

For many years, I carried shame, sadness, insecurity, depression and a deep sense of aloneness. My desire to feel better led me to healers, psychics and teachers of many kinds. I searched, experimented, numbed myself at times, and tried many different ways of putting the pieces of myself back together.

Gradually, I found people who had worked deeply enough with their own wounds to help me meet mine with greater compassion. They helped me learn to trust my intuition, soften the way I spoke to myself, and recognize the thoughts and patterns that were no longer serving me.

For years, psychics told me that I was a healer. I had no idea what that meant or where it might lead.

Then, around 2016, while I was alone, a single word came to me:

SHAMAN.

I didn’t know whether I was meant to find one, whether I had been one in another lifetime, or whether I was being called to this path myself. It took three years for the meaning of that moment to begin revealing itself.

Eventually, I found my teachers at The Power Path School of Shamanism. From there, I was guided to Reiki and became a Reiki Master. Light language and channeled song began to emerge. I trained as a Clinical Hypnotherapist, then as a Trance Channeler, while my psychic and intuitive abilities continued to unfold.

Throughout all of this, I kept working on myself.

I now understand what those psychics recognized so many years ago: when we devote ourselves to our own healing, we become capable of helping illuminate the way for others. Not because we can “heal” another person, but because we can hold a frequency, speak from experience and meet another human being with the compassion that comes from having been there ourselves.

I don’t believe healing means arriving at a perfect, finished version of ourselves. Life continues to bring lessons, discoveries and opportunities to become more fully who we are. I continue to meet my own, just as I support my clients in meeting theirs.

What I can offer is a space in which you can hear yourself more clearly, reconnect with your own wisdom and remember the spark that has always been within you.

The world does not need you to become someone else.

The world needs the light that is uniquely yours.

COME AS YOU ARE

You do not need to know exactly what you need before booking. You may simply feel curious, drawn to this work, or aware that something within you is asking to be heard.

Together, we will listen for what is ready to emerge.

WORDS FROM CLIENTS

“My session with Chela was a very intimate and sacred experience. She began with light codes and I felt moved to emotion, my body crying for itself. It was a beautiful and much-needed release, along with messages from my guides and higher self that were in alignment with my current path. There were many confirmations that I needed gentle reminders of. I would recommend her to anyone seeking guidance and self-care.” ❤️🙏✨

“Chela provided a channeled reading for me and was spot-on immediately with the guide that came through. I have this guide tattooed on my arm and he is a part of my daily connection to Spirit. She also picked up on messages from other guides who are a part of my spirit team, along with my mother who has passed. The messages were beautiful, inspiring, much needed and so appreciated. Chela is truly gifted. I am very grateful for her kind and grounded energy and look forward to working with her again in the future.” 🐉
