Shamanic Psychotherapy is a collaborative process between you the client and the therapist. This is a whole system approach which supports alignment of the body, mind and spirit, and a bridging the past, present and future.

When our psyche is ready to grow and transform itself, the universe conspires to open a door for us to take our next right step. We are ready to deal with what we have been stuffing, avoiding, detaching from and blocking. We are ready to take the plunge into the unknown even though our ego has been resisting. The Ego is the part of us that has developed lots of defenses to keep us in a perceived sense of safety. This urge to heal and transform our lives is our true nature and when we are ready to surrender and open the door, we move into our next evolution of growth.

We often reach this time for expansion when we feel…

  • Overwhelmed by life

  • Stuck in the same old patterns and can’t seem to move forward

  • Mind chatter won’t stop

  • Family and relationship problems

  • Depressed and anxious

  • Stuck in codependency

Because our psyche is on a search to…

  • Find more freedom, passion, and purpose

  • Transform old patterns and behaviors

  • Develop better boundaries

  • Improve inner knowing and intuition

  • Find our inner authority

  • Recognize our interdependence with all of life.


In Shamanic Psychotherapy we collaberate in co-creating the life you have been longing for. My experiential approach helps you find your inner wisdom as you access the parts of yourself that are dormant, disconnected or projected due to life’s challenging experiences. I provide a supportive environment that allows you to explore your own narrative, gaining insight, perspective and a richer expression of who you as you reclaim your authentic self.

Sessions: Intake and hour sessions are $120/hour.

Both in-person and virtual sessions are available. These sessions are for you if you seek to develop a deeper, more compassionate understanding of yourself. Many of us have developed symptoms ranging from anxiety and depression to resistance and fear. Each of these are adaptive tools to support us through difficult times in childhood or through lifetimes. Yet these adaptive patterns also keep us from expressing our true natures. Through Shamanic Psychotherapy, I will support you in finding your authentic self so you may step more fully into your life, express who you are meant to be and share your gifts with the world.

As a fellow psycho-spiritual practitioner, I have been on the lookout for a therapist who I could relate to and also learn something I hadn’t already known or worked through in my 19 years of psychotherapy. I was so glad to have found Carley who has such an expansive background in psychotherapy and also shamanic work. She has helped me to work through many of my walls and has taught me how to have healthier relationships by being vulnerable and authentically myself. I have dug deeper with her than I have with any therapist in my 19 years of this mental health recovery. She is gentle, kind, non-judgmental, direct, and compassionate in her presence and work. She is worth driving a distance for and I believe there needs to be more like her around and in the field. I am thankful to have connected with Carley and am excited to continue to see how many walls we can continue to tear down.
