Healing through Connecting

Everyone has a right to Belong.

The ginkgo leaf in our logo carries the story of resilience and balance. Its two-sides form a reminder of wholeness brought from duality, and of the harmony between feminine and masculine energies. In this same way, our work honors the many layers of life: grief and joy, ancestry and present moment, body and spirit.

Here, healing is not about fixing but about remembering… returning to your own strengths, your groundedness, your belonging. Together, we create a space where tenderness, compassion, and clarity guide the way.

We invite you to step into this circle of care, where your experiences are honored and your voice matters. In this sacred ground, you are supported to explore, to root more deeply into yourself, and to grow toward a life shaped by peace, connection, and love.

✨ May this be a place where you rediscover your own rhythm, where lineage and nature meet, and where the journey toward balance and fulfillment unfolds gently, step by step.

  • "A profound impact on my life..."

    I am a 66-year-old man who learned one of life’s most important lessons in my first session with Michaelene and Bailey: that I did not know what I was feeling — and that my feelings and my heart are not negotiable. Michaelene made the first point with grace and firmness. Bailey made the second with uncanny depth and care.

    The value of psilocybin cannot be measured in the session itself. The session began a cascade of awareness that unfolded over time. From these awarenesses, I have gone through a tremendous transformation, clearing years of congestion created by my survival pattern of managing other people’s feelings instead of knowing my own. My heart is now supported by a deep knowing and a strong core. I no longer need to justify myself — to myself or to anyone else. I see anxiety as it rises and use it as information rather than judgment.

    Michaelene and Bailey provided a safe space for a journey that had a profound impact on my life. They are a fantastic partnership, bringing different perspectives that help them find the entry point into my psyche. I am forever grateful to them. It has been an amazing ride, and I would do it again if I needed it.

  • "In 6 hours I made more progress than I had in 20 years..."

    "I have suffered from anxiety and depression for over 20 years. I have tried more medications and have seen more doctors than I can count, none of which provided much relief. I was hopeless and began to accept that my life was as good as it could get. After learning of Sacred Immersion Sessions, I decided to take a last attempt to improve my mental health. I am pleased to share that in 6 hours, I made more progress than I had in 20 years. I am a new person with a new perspective on life that I could not have achieved without the help of Michaelene. Set up an appointment and get the relief you deserve."

  • "Space was held for the smallest inner child and most pained parts to enter to be present, to feel loved, and to heal..."

    I could not even bring to consciousness, let alone speak about. She has held presence and helped me heal my biggest and deepest childhood wounds and come to acceptance , love , and even empowerment with them. She has taught me how to live with both sides but most of all she held the space for the smallest inner child and most pained parts to enter to be present, to feel loved, and to heal. She is truly a magical and transformative healer in all senses of the word by going to the root of the issue with you witnessing , and by being with , healing it from the inside out. After all - our parts just want to be heard. Truly heard . There are parts of myself that wouldn't even show their face and first felt safe enough in my sessions with Michaelene to appear (after decades of therapy with amazing practitioners). We healed the deepest and most painful childhood and past life traumas together. She is a healer through time and space. She will bring you to your own essence and you will meet it with love and support from the deepest part of yourself. And she will hold witness the entire time. Grab hold of available sessions with her. Her availability and popularity is sure to fill up super quickly. Thank You Dr Michaelene, there are never enough gifts to give or enough support to send. My work with you truly changed my life and I am forever grateful. May God continue to shower you with blessings love and light and the work and life you dream of coming into fruition.

  • "Finding out who I am..."

    “When I first made the decision to start counseling/therapy I was desperate for someone, anyone, to hear my pleas for help. I was hitting the end of a very sharp and painful roller coaster and was almost at the permanent crash landing. My first session with Michaelene I was scared out of my shoes, anxiety attacks constantly. I walked in early and she didn't hesitate to see me. One of my favorite memories of her is during our first meeting. She looked so comfortable, in fuzzy boots, a warm sweater and a scarf (it was very cold in the building that day). That helped me relax a lot. I had been in therapy before, but all were very uptight and firm. Not willing to be patient and ask for what I needed. And not willing to relax and laugh a little. This was very different. Michaelene was VERY patient with me. Honest, and willing to lend a hand, or hug, if needed. Always found a way to make me smile at the end of a session, even if I fought it. She helped me find my "voice," and taught me how to use it in ways that would help me. She helped me find different ways of coping with my self injury urges. I honestly think I was the luckiest person ever for having Michaelene as my therapist. I was able to "grow up," finding out who I am, the strong willed, patient, caring person that I am, and being able to use it to relieve stress and anger. I've found ways to be myself without being what everyone else wants me to be. If I had the extraordinary opportunity to work with Michaelene again I would excitedly jump at it!! I've known her for two years, and I don't know where I'd be if I'd never met her. She is truly a blessing. For me, one of those women I can think back on and remember as one of the few strong female influences I've had the beauty of knowing.”

  • "Restored with a sense of great insight into my personal relationships..."

    "I began hearing about the Family Constellation Approach to therapy from co-workers, and wanted to get a basic idea of what it entailed when I signed up for one of the workshops. I initially thought it would be a basic training introduction and was surprised when I realized I would be an active participant along with the other members of the group. Although I consider myself a new age person and someone who is open to non traditional aspects of therapy I was a bit skeptical when I walked in and there was a strong scent of incense and a circle prepared with chairs, all with a box of tissue neatly arranged next to each chair. I had planned on taking lots of notes and listening to theory, not crying. The experience left me speechless and amazed at how powerful and honest our senses really are. The facilitators really created a safe place and were patient in allowing each participant to work at the level they felt comfortable. I left the workshop physically drained but restored with a sense of great insight into my personal relationships. I would strongly recommend these workshops and plan on attending more myself."

  • "Lets you make better decisions for the future, including emotions.”

    “It’s a way of looking within yourself and within all the family members throughout the generations, their fate, their destinies… And that lets you make better decisions for the future, including emotions.”

  • From a Colleague...

    I have both witnessed and participated in Michaelene's constellation work, which I find very powerful and deeply spiritual. I recently suggested that one of my own clients visit Michaelene for a constellation session. The client reported very positive changes after her work with Michaelene. There was a deep and grounding shift toward inner peace, which was present for her even during stressful family gatherings around the holidays.

  • New Inner Peace

    "I have gained an incredible amount of insight and sense of belonging by participating in constellations. In being present and witnessing, the collective energy provides a sacredness rarely felt in the world today. The power of connecting through eye contact, intentional movement and an open heart while representing for others has been the most powerful component of re-teaching my soul self-trust in my decade long journey of healing."

  • Womb Healing with Support & Love

    "I found out about Constellations at a time in my life when I was working on womb healing to prepare to conceive my first child. I heard about it on a podcast and then looked up who did it in my area and found Michaelene and Carrie. From the moment I walked into their space I felt supported and loved. With their help I worked over the next three years not only on womb healing and releasing past trauma but on bringing in my first child to this world, preparing and healing from birth, walking through a miscarriage, and calling in my second child. In addition to my own work I have seen countless people who have participated experience huge energetic shifts on issues that they had been working on for years and were not able to change with other modalities. As a therapist myself I quickly felt called to learn this modality as it is so effective and meaningful to myself and others and leads to individual and collective transformation. I am so grateful to Michaelene and Carrie for the work that they are doing and what it has meant to my life and the change it is making in the world!"

  • I feel less blaming or less, just less judgmental.

    “You know, it’s easy to think that sort of the foundation of what’s true in healing is purely psychological, and it isn’t … it just goes deeper than what we think of the psychological healing. It’s really soul healing, the way that I experience it. It’s developing more and more and more integrity, become more and more integrated. It’s [FC] just given me that much more compassion for why people are the way they are and why they do what they do. And I feel less blaming or less, just less judgmental.”
