Discover What’s Keeping You Stuck

Maybe there’s something you’ve been living with or working through that just doesn’t seem to change…

Shamanic Healing, Reiki & Energy Healing in Ottawa

Through compassionate conversation, shamanic healing and energy medicine, shadow work, guided journeys, Reiki, and intuitive insight, each session offers a supportive space to explore what may be happening beneath the surface.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, caught in repeating patterns or difficult relationships, struggling to let go, unsure of your next step, navigating a life transition, or simply sensing that something feels “off,” our work is about gently exploring what’s beneath the surface—in the space beyond the thinking mind, where deeper healing and insight can emerge.

Together, we’ll gently uncover the deeper patterns, beliefs, emotions, thoughts, sensations, and unseen influences that may be keeping you from feeling like yourself, finding clarity, creating healthier relationships, trusting what you feel and need, and moving forward in your life.

Sometimes There’s More to the Story

You may already understand much of what you’re experiencing and be receiving meaningful support through therapy, bodywork, reflection, or other healing practices. And yet, you may sense that there are other layers you would like to explore.

Our experiences are rarely shaped by one thing alone.

What you’re experiencing can have many interconnected layers—your thoughts and emotions, beliefs and patterns, what your body is holding, ancestral influences, and, from a shamanic perspective, past-life, karmic, shadow, energetic, or spiritual influences that may exist beyond your everyday awareness.

My work offers an additional way to explore this deeper landscape. Whether it’s where you begin or something you draw on alongside other forms of care, we can become curious about what may be contributing to the struggle, what is asking for attention or healing, and what may be ready to shift.

Perhaps This Feels Familiar…

You may know exactly what you’re struggling with, or you may simply know that something feels off, keeps repeating, or hasn’t changed in the way you hoped.

  • You’re carrying too much — stress, emotions, responsibilities, old experiences, or the needs of others have left you feeling overwhelmed, drained, or emotionally heavy.
  • The same patterns keep showing up — in relationships, boundaries, people-pleasing, self-doubt, or situations you thought you had already moved beyond.
  • Something is difficult to let go of — a relationship, hurt, fear, regret, loss, or experience from your past still feels present.
  • You’re struggling in your relationships — perhaps you keep finding yourself in familiar dynamics, giving too much, having difficulty setting boundaries, or wondering why certain relationships affect you so deeply.
  • You don’t quite feel like yourself — something feels off, unsettled, disconnected, or out of balance, even if you can’t explain exactly why.
  • You’re at a turning point — something in your life is changing, ending, or asking you to reconsider what you want and where you’re going next.
  • You’ve already done a lot of inner work — through therapy, personal growth, healing, spiritual practice, or other forms of support, yet there’s something you would still like to understand or explore.
  • You’re ready for something to change — not because you need to become someone else, but because the way you’ve been carrying, responding to, or experiencing something no longer feels right for you.

What Becomes Possible

Healing isn’t only about resolving what feels difficult. It can also create space for something new.

You may begin to feel clearer about what you want and what matters to you. More able to trust what you feel and know. Old patterns may begin to loosen, relationships can shift, and choices that once felt difficult may become easier to see.

You may find yourself feeling more present in your life, more connected to your intuition, more comfortable setting boundaries, or simply less weighed down by something you’ve carried for a long time.

And sometimes the change is something you couldn’t have imagined when you began.

Because I don’t believe healing is necessarily about returning to who you once were.

Life changes us. Healing changes us too.

It can be an opportunity to understand yourself differently, discover strengths and possibilities that have been waiting beneath the surface, and create more room for the person you are becoming.

Healing isn’t only about what you leave behind. It’s also about what becomes possible from here.

How this work begins

Grounded in Spiritual Alchemy, Energy Medicine and Ancient Wisdom

You don’t have to have this all figured out before you come.

You don’t need to explain it perfectly
or understand why you’re feeling the way you do.

Even if it feels messy, unclear, or hard to put into words—
that’s enough.

We can start from there.

What we do together

We slow things down and look at what’s actually going on beneath the surface.

Not just what’s happening in your thoughts—
but what you’re carrying emotionally and energetically.

Some sessions are quiet.
Some bring clarity.
Some help release what’s been sitting there for a long time.

It’s not about forcing anything to change.

It’s about giving your system the space to settle…
so something deeper can start to shift on its own.

My work unfolds in two ways :

You don’t need to understand any of that for it to work.

We simply follow what’s showing up for you, and begin there.

I would love to hold space for you

You Might Recognize Yourself Here

You might not have the exact words for it.

But something feels… off.

Maybe you feel:

  • heartbroken, even if time has passed
  • overwhelmed by things that didn’t used to affect you
  • mentally stuck on someone or a situation you can’t fully release
  • emotionally heavy without a clear reason
  • energetically drained after certain interactions

And alongside that:

  • It’s not always obvious what’s wrong
  • You feel overwhelmed or emotionally heavy, even when nothing is “wrong”
  • You’re sensitive to other people’s energy and don’t always know how to clear it
  • You keep finding yourself in the same patterns, even when you try to change them
  • You overthink decisions or second-guess yourself afterward
  • You feel both capable… and somehow held back at the same time
  • You want to feel more like yourself again, but aren’t sure how

It can be frustrating.

Especially when you’ve already tried to work through it.

You don’t have to figure this out on your own.

If something here resonates, we can begin there—gently, at your pace.

Two Choices, Same Destination

Whether you choose Shamanic Healing or Reiki – Energy Healing …

both paths lead toward the same destination: a deeper connection with yourself, greater self-trust, and the clarity to move forward in a way that feels true to who you are.

Shamanic Healing & Energy Medicine Sessions

Explore, Uncover, Transform.

If you feel stuck in repeating patterns, disconnected from yourself, or sense there’s something deeper influencing your life, this is where we begin. Through guided shamanic healing, journey work, and intuitive insight, we’ll gently uncover what may be holding you back so you can reconnect with your own inner wisdom.

Reiki ~ Energy Healing Sessions

Restore, Rebalance, Reconnect.

Sometimes healing isn’t about searching for answers—it’s about finding calm. Reiki and energy healing offer a gentle, restorative experience to help quiet the nervous system, release energetic heaviness, and leave you feeling more grounded, balanced, and at ease.

Meet Jenn

Shaman, Spiritual Medicine Keeper, Energy Healer, and Intuitive Guide

For over a decade, I’ve had the privilege of supporting people as they navigate challenges, change, and the deeper questions that arise along the way.

My work brings together shamanic healing, energy medicine, guided journeys, intuitive insight, and compassionate conversation. My role isn’t to tell you what your experience means or what you should do, but to help you explore what may be happening beneath the surface and discover what feels meaningful for you.

I approach this work with curiosity, compassion, and respect for your unique path—creating space to understand what may be keeping you stuck, work with what is ready to shift, and open to new possibilities.

I continue to deepen and expand my practice through advanced Sacred Alchemy and Medicine Work training with Pete Bernard Miskwa Kimiwan of The 8th Fire School, as well as ongoing studies in Celtic Shamanic practices with Meri Fowler of the Greenwood Celtic Shamanic Wiccan Tradition. This continued learning supports my own growth and expansion, while deepening the work I’m able to bring to others.

In-Person Shamanic Healing and Reiki Sessions in Ottawa

Two welcoming spaces to experience this work in person.

Most of my in-person sessions take place in my cozy, private healing space in Ottawa South, in the Alta Vista / Heron / Walkley area.

This is a quiet, comfortable space where we have the time and privacy to settle in, talk about what’s bringing you here, and allow the session to unfold around what you need.

On Thursdays, I also offer in-person Shamanic Healing sessions at Complete Wellbeing on Waverley Street in Centretown—a convenient option if you live or work closer to downtown or prefer a more central location.

Whichever location you choose, you’re welcome to bring what you’re experiencing, even if you don’t fully understand it or know where to begin.

Bring what you’re experiencing. We’ll begin there.

You don’t need to know exactly what you need before you begin.

Most people start with what feels closest—
and we go from there.

Smudging & Space Clearing for Ottawa Homes

Your home carries energy — from daily life, past experiences, and emotional transitions. Over time, that energy can feel heavy, unsettled, or simply “off.”

Smudging and space clearing is a gentle, shamanic practice that helps clear stagnant or unwanted energy and restore balance, calm, and harmony to your living space. Using sacred plant medicine, intention, and ritual, I offer in-home space clearing services in Ottawa and surrounding areas for homeowners seeking a lighter, more supportive environment.

This work is especially helpful after moving, during major life changes, or when a home no longer feels like it truly belongs to you.

What is the 20-minute Clarity Call?

The Clarity Call is a short, gentle conversation to help you decide where to begin.

It is not a coaching session.
It is simply a space to ask questions and feel into alignment.

There is no pressure to book afterward.

To request a Clarity Call, visit my contact page and please fill out the online form.

Jennifer is kind, thoughtful & understanding, which allows me to be completely comfortable about opening up, it’s made a difference for me.

My experience with Jenn was fantastic; she is a kind soul and the work that we did together made an immediate and positive impact on me.

Melissa DunnOntario, Canada

I’ve been drawn to this work for as long as I can remember. The energy felt like it was dancing all around me and lifting me up. It felt like I was launched gently upwards and onto a much higher plane. Always feeling completely free and protected. I’ve been coming for a little over a year now and feel like I’m 180 degrees different and for the better. People closest to me are seeing the changes and are happy for me.

ClientShared anonymously at the client’s request

Working with Jennifer changed my life. It opened the doors to deep inner healing that occurred faster in two beginner sessions than months of coaching work or other work combined for years. It got me to the root of my limiting beliefs with regards to relationships and cultivate a healthier relationship with myself, thus improving those in my life. I am so grateful for her guidance and working together.

A.S.Physician - Alberta Canada

Jennifer, you have been there for me when I felt most hopeless, helpless, stuck, cornered. My sincere and utmost gratitude to you and your work that is just “out of this world” literally, and brings results to me on the same day!! Transformative, gentle, and so powerful are just a few words to describe how fantastic your shamanic work is!! Your healing sessions got me unstuck, and I can regain peace and strength to move forward with clear thinking. I really enjoyed your in-person healing sessions downtown. It was such a delight and honour to meet you in person. You are so caring, kind, understanding, and a great listener, and you know what to do to resolve the issues. The Zoom sessions we have done together are also very powerful! Thank you! I highly recommend Jennifer.

R.AGovernment Employee - Ontario, Canada

With all my heart I recommend taking an inner journey with Jennifer. She is a genuine powerhouse with solid, trustworthy knowledge. Her skill set is strong and she has a wide variety of techniques packed in her healing tool kit. If you are new to energy healing, you can trust you will be safely guided through inner realms and back by Jennifer. If you are a seasoned healer at a crossroads or needing a little nudge, you will respect her knowledge, ethics and kindness in accommodating your beliefs and experience on the adventure. And, of course, most importantly….you’ll get the results you have been searching for and the answers you have been seeking.

J.M.Retired Admissions Officer - Ontario, Canada
Thank you for opening a portal into what has been one of the most profound, sacred spiritual journeys that I’ve ever embarked on. I guess the day I saw you aligned really well with the cosmic frequency. So many connections came to fruition. There is just so much, but I am receiving signs all day. I cannot thank you enough for your guidance. Thank you again; words do not express enough of my gratitude. Light and Love
M.T.Therapist - Ontario, Canada

Hi Jennifer, a quick note to say HOW MUCH things have improved for me since our session. I had normal apprehension and anxiety since then and I was able to sleep well and be with the sensation; it didn’t rule me. My presentation went really well. I can’t believe how helpful these Reiki sessions are, you have a client for life!
