Hi!
I'm Tara...
I am guide who supports people in shadow work, self-compassion, and archetypal power.
My job is to ask you the right questions to unlock self-knowledge that frees you. My modalities are the tarot, gene keys, depth psychology, and meditation. Here are some of my core beliefs:
talking about a path is not walking that path
the shadow contains energy, gifts and revelations
shadow work requires patience, inquiry, gentleness, and contemplation
archetypes are living energies
it's better to focus on liberation than validation
the anima/ animus show us how to have union with an Immortal Beloved, which transcends what we can have with a mortal partner
If you'd like to see what past clients had to say, you can read these testimonials.
xo,
Tara
