The Wired Shaman
Ancient Ways
for Modern
Times
Welcome to The Wired Shaman
There sometimes comes a point in life where something just is not sitting right anymore. You may not have the words for it. You just know something feels off beneath the surface…
You may have already tried many ways to feel better… Counselling, self-support, energy work, spiritual practices. Some of it may have helped. Some of it may have touched the surface without reaching the place inside that still hurts.
As The Wired Shaman, I bring traditional shamanic work into modern, real life.
Shamanic sessions are a place to slow things down and work with what is there. If something brought you here, you are in the right place to explore it:
Is not about quick answers or surface level change.
Is about taking the time to understand what is going on beneath the surface and working with it in a direct and grounded way.
This is shamanic work, approached in a practical and accessible way. Each session is guided by what is present for you. Sometimes that is something clear and specific. Sometimes it is harder to define. Both are completely fine.
For you, that means working at the level of spirit and soul and then bring the focus back to your body, your nervous system, and your everyday life.
People usually do not stumble onto The Wired Shaman website by accident…
Very often they arrive here at the moment when something in them is ready to begin a deeper healing and empowerment process.
The helping spirits have their own timing. If you are reading this now, you may already be standing at the edge of your path, wondering if it is time to take a step.
You may find yourself here when…
- You feel worn down by grief, shock, old patterns, or long term stress that never seems to shift
- You sense that something in your spirit feels out of place, heavy, or missing
- You are a helper, caregiver, or first responder who carries things you cannot easily talk about
- You are sensitive to energy and need support that respects that sensitivity
- You are ready to participate in your own healing rather than handing it over to someone else
- You feel a quiet inner nudge that says it is time to walk your PATH in a new way
Who is this work for?
This work tends to resonate with people who:
- Feel something is shifting or needs to shift
- Are carrying stress or internal pressure that is not resolving
- Are trying to think their way through something that is not responding to that approach
- Want something real and grounded, without performance or unnecessary complexity
- You do not need any prior experience with this kind of work.
What is Shamanism?
Shamanism is an ancient healing tradition and way of life. Shamanic teachings focus on our connection to nature and all of creation. This ancient practice is anchored in spiritual activities focused on healing, gaining knowledge and learning how to exist in balance within ourselves and our world.
Since the dawn of recorded history archaeologists and other researchers have found evidence that shamans and the practice of shamanism were common components in communities all over the world.
Practitioners of Shamanism seek to be in relationship with the helping spirits in all things. Shamanism does not conflict with other religious practices, as it allows people to be in direct relationship with whatever they perceive as the higher power.
Core Elements of Shamanism
Connecting
Shamanism connects us to others and to nature. It helps us to see things through fresh eyes and a curious heart. Shamanic practice helps us to plug into the universal energies and gain a sense of calm and insight into how we fit into the whole picture of our life and everything around us.
Balance
Healing and service to others is at the core of shamanic practice. Shamanism focuses on all parts of the body and spirit and addresses them according to the unique needs of the individual. Finding balance is a personal experience that is shaped and directed by one’s helping spirits.
Direction
Shamans seek answers from the helping spirits. The possession of the relevant information at the right time is often the key to our fulfillment. This awareness can assist us to avoid impediments and seize opportunities because we are more able to recognize them when they happen.
What to Expect in a Shamanic Treatment Session
Many people feel nervous before their first session because they do not know what will happen. Here is a simple outline of how a shamanic session works…
Step one: Your story and your intention… We begin with conversation. You share what you are living with now and what you hope will change.
Together we find a clear and simple intention for your Shamanic Session, so the work has a strong and steady focus. You do not need to tell your whole life story, only what feels important for this moment.
Step two: The shamanic work… You rest in a comfortable position while I connect with the helping spirits on your behalf.
Depending on what you need, the work may include things like bringing back power, removing heavy or foreign energy, tending to soul level wounds or loss, or other traditional methods within the Shamanic approach.
Step three: Integration and next steps… After the journey we talk through what work was done during this part of the session and any messages that the helping spirits shared for you. We look at how this work may show up in your body, your emotions, your dreams, and your daily life in the coming days and weeks.
This process and the learning that results from these simple practices help you anchor the shift. You leave with a clearer sense of what changed and how to support that change, rather than a vague and mysterious experience that you are left to figure out on your own.
Shamanic Sessions…
I offer one-to-one shamanic healing sessions (online via Zoom) that gives us time to listen deeply, do the spirit work, and help you begin to integrate the changes.
This is a good choice if you feel called to real change. It is especially supportive when you are living with long-standing patterns, complex experiences, or a sense that something important has been missing for a long time.
Why people choose The Wired Shaman…
I have been working with clients since 2010. My role is not to tell you what to think or what your experience should be. It is to help create a space where what is already present can be understood and worked with in a clear and grounded way. Each session is approached with focus, respect, and attention to what is actually happening for you.
I offer:
• Many years of experience with shamanic work and spiritual support
• A clear Shamanic framework that respects both spirit and energy systems
• Deep respect for your consent, your pace, and your boundaries
• Understanding of trauma, lived experience, and the realities of everyday life
• Practical guidance that helps you bring the work into your day, not just experience something and then feel unsure what to do with it
• My work is to walk beside you, not in front of you. I listen to you, I listen to the helping spirits, and together we watch for the next true step on your path.
You do not need to arrive perfect, calm, or spiritual. You only need to be willing to show up as you are and be honest about what you are living with… I look forward to working with you – when you are ready…

I have been a Shamanic Practitioner since 2010. I provide distance shamanic sessions via Zoom. Each session is completely customized for the individual, based on their goals.
There is no typical kind of client. I see a wide range of people: children, teens, adults and seniors. People seek shamanic treatments for various reasons: physical, emotional, stress, grief, direction and empowerment to name a few.
The common element shared by all my clients is the profound experience they have during their session. The energy connections that occur are speak to the needs and goals of each person during that specific session. Clients say they feel heightened states of wellness and power by the end of the session.
Please take some time to browse around the site to see what resonates with you. If you have questions please feel free to contact me or if you would like to book your own shamanic session, please go to the Bookings page.
Thank you for stopping by!

Some common shamanic ‘tools’
Shamanic sessions are focused on addressing issues that are acting as an impediment to you experiencing optimum wellness and peace in your daily life. The approach for each session is entirely customized to facilitate reaching your focus goal. Here are just some of the Shamanic methods that could be used in a shamanic session:
Divination
Seeking information, messages or insights from helping spirits is the focus of Divination. Before your session a divination is conducted by me to ask helping spirits for guidance. This information can be useful in providing deeper insights, drawing attention to unseen impediments, shaping decisions or indicating direction.
Power Animal Retrieval
A shamanic journey with the intent to seek, identify and bring back your power animal. A power animal is a teacher or messenger that comes in the form of an animal and has a personal relationship to you. You do not choose the animal, it chooses you. Power animals can provide guidance, lessons, protection, power, and wisdom.
Soul Retrieval
Sometimes when we experience physical or emotional trauma, a part of our soul detaches itself and hides away in order to protect itself from additional trauma. If a soul piece is ready to return, a journey to find, accompany and reintroduce that soul piece can be accomplished to help reinstate the feeling of being one’s whole self again.
Extraction
This treatment removes any energy from your body that does not belong. This misplaced energy is known as an intrusion. Sometimes the intrusion results from external sources like: when you ‘absorb’ another’s sadness or you are the receiver of someone’s anger. Other times the intrusions result when you internalize stresses from work or when dealing with a personal or family crisis. Extractions are a powerful way to release energy intrusions that weigh you down.
Empowerment
Often life’s experiences can drain us of our personal energy. This loss can make us feel vulnerable, depressed, agitated or lacking in enthusiasm for things we used to enjoy. By receiving power from the helping spirits you will feel these power-loss symptoms dissolve as you start to feel more positive and in control of your life.
Psychopomp
This Shamanic method is used to connect with a person who has died. A journey is made by the Shamanic Practitioner to find the soul of that person and confirm that it reached its proper destination. Sometimes with sudden or violent deaths the soul of a person gets ‘stuck’ here in the middle world. In other instances the soul of that person feels too strongly connected to the real world. This connection results from things like concern for loved ones or when those left behind cannot let go. Psychopomp assists the soul address these issues and the Shaman is able to escort the soul to where it needs to go.
"I acknowledge with gratitude that I live and practice in Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia, on the unceded ancestral territory of the Mi’kmaq People. This land has been cared for by the Mi’kmaq for generations and remains governed by the Peace and Friendship Treaties, which uphold the spirit of mutual respect and coexistence. As a shamanic practitioner, I honour the deep wisdom of this land and its original caretakers, recognizing the sacred connection between nature, spirit, and healing."
Please note: Shamanic services are spiritual and energetic support. They do not replace medical treatment, counselling, or crisis services. If you are in acute distress or considering harming yourself or someone else, please contact emergency services, a crisis line, or your health care provider first. When you are stable and supported at that level, shamanic work can walk beside you so that spirit and soul are also included in your healing.
