What
Doc serves in roles conventionally named as: healer, writer, artist, educator, public speaker, facilitator, chaplain, death doula, somatic healer, and consultant.
We view the Sacred, the arts, and community as the ground of healing, a marriage of modern and indigenous technologies. Doc is invested in using a transpersonal approach, which works with the power of the here and now, somatics, creativity, and liberation. This approach nurtures the process of eradicating the internalized patterning of our Ancestors towards surviving and rebirthing new ways of thriving. This is an embodied reconnecting and honoring of our innate gifts; our innate ability to heal ourselves. This is sacred activism.
How
Dr. g welcomes all willing to embody the work of dismantling oppressive ways of engaging with self and others. Our soul work centers the liberation of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) minds and bodies, in the present and across generations; guiding rites of passage through grief and life transitions with humor, non-aggression, freedom, and deep compassion. Doc works with others to create and maintain personal power and safety, transform obstacles into opportunity, and spaciousness in the face of adversity. Artists, healers, academics, visionaries, activists/change makers, and deep seekers appreciate Dr. g’s ability to hold the highest view and co-create pathways through the use of spiritual and emotional support, ritual, self-care, and knowledge around holistic health. Doc recognizes that the healing takes the time it takes and that the healing is often beyond the individual, but potentially generations forward and back.
