Stall, selling shamanic drums and other handmade creations 

I bring over 20 years of experience as a transpersonal psychotherapist and 15 years as a dedicated shamanic practitioner to my work in healing and transformation. A key aspect of my practice is crafting sacred shamanic drums, a tradition I have embraced for nearly 15 years.

I facilitate monthly community-based shamanic healing drum circles, sweatlodges, and sacred healing circles, offering spaces for connection, renewal, and empowerment. My shamanic and energy healing sessions are deeply rooted in ancient practices, helping others on their personal and spiritual journeys.

Recently, I’ve ventured into festivals to extend this work to wider communities, sharing the transformative power of sacred traditions in these vibrant settings. Whether through intimate circles or large gatherings, my mission is to foster healing, build community, and bring ancient wisdom into today’s world.
