Private Sessions + Shamanic Journey Classes
You’re ready if you feel called by something deeper—an inner guidance, a life shift, or your ancestral remembering—yet traditional healing hasn’t gone deep enough.
As a shamanic practitioner, I am deeply committed to guiding individuals on their journey towards holistic well-being and inner transformation. Drawing from ancient wisdom and modern methodologies, I offer personalized virtual and in-person coaching services to address various aspects of health, anxiety, and energy balancing.
My approach is rooted in the belief that each person holds within them the power to heal and thrive. Through a combination of shamanic practices, energy work, and intuitive coaching techniques, I create a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their inner landscapes, confront challenges, and unlock their full potential.
Whether you’re struggling with physical ailments, navigating overwhelming anxiety, or seeking greater alignment and vitality, my sessions are tailored to meet you where you are and empower you to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing.
With compassion, empathy, and a deep reverence for the interconnectedness of all beings, I guide clients towards reclaiming their innate wisdom, restoring balance, and cultivating a deeper connection to themselves and the world around them

Personalized Care and Support
Come curious. Leave transformed.
This is not just energy healing.
This is initiation.
My work is for women who are navigating something big—spiritually, emotionally, or physically—and know, deep down, that there’s more to their story.
Maybe you’re in a season of change.
Maybe the old ways of healing haven’t reached the ache.
Maybe you’re sensitive, spiritual, or simply exhausted from carrying it all alone.
In a private Shamanic Reiki session, we create sacred space for your energy to speak. I call in your spirit allies, journey on your behalf, and listen deeply to what wants to be seen, healed, or reclaimed. We may retrieve lost parts of your soul, meet an ancestor, receive guidance from your power animal, or untangle energetic patterns held in the body.
Every session is different—because you are different.
This is not a formula. It’s a co-creation with Spirit.
You don’t need to have the right words.
You don’t need to know what to ask for.
You just have to show up.
Because sometimes the deepest healing begins when you stop trying to fix yourself—and start listening to your soul.
You’re ready if:
You feel like you’ve outgrown surface-level healing.
You’re in a life transition and need spiritual support.
You’re sensitive, soul-led, or spiritually awakening—but don’t have a roadmap.
You want to reclaim your energy, your voice, and your path.
What You’ll Receive:
Deep energetic reiki healing blended with shamanic journeying
A sacred container to explore your spiritual path
Guidance from spirit allies, ancestors, or power animals
Integration support and insights for your everyday life.
You’ll leave with clarity, connection, and your next step.

What is Shamanic Reiki?
Questions About Your Shamanic Journey and Consults?
What is a shamanic journey and reiki?
A shamanic journey refers to a practice found in various cultures where a shaman, or someone trained in shamanic techniques, enters an altered state of consciousness to communicate with spirits, seek guidance, or retrieve information for healing purposes. This altered state can be induced through various means such as drumming, chanting, or dancing.
During the journey, the shaman typically travels to the spirit world or other realms, either figuratively or through a subjective experience, to connect with spirit guides, ancestors, power animals, or other beings. The purpose of the journey may vary depending on the needs of the individual or community, but common intentions include healing, gaining insight, solving problems, or receiving guidance for personal growth and spiritual development.
Shamanic journeys are deeply rooted in the belief that the spiritual realm is interconnected with the physical world, and that by accessing this realm, individuals can tap into wisdom and healing energies that can benefit themselves and others. These practices are often highly ritualized and may involve specific protocols and traditions passed down through generations within a particular cultural context.
What happens during my session with you?
First, we will meet virtually or in-person and we will have some time to discuss your concerns, questions, and what type of guidance you are looking for.
For virtual visits, we will sit together while you meditate or relax at home while I do the spiritual journey for you. For in-person visits, you have the option to lay on a massage table for a Shamanic Reiki session, sit on the couch, or lay on the floor with me. You do not have to actively do anything other than relax!
After the journey is complete, I will share with you what insights I have received, who I met with, and what I encountered. We will take the time to discuss symbolism, meanings, and how to move forward with your new information and healing session.
What types of questions should I ask?
When seeking help from a shamanic journey, the questions you ask can vary greatly depending on your individual circumstances, needs, and beliefs. However, here are some common types of questions that people might ask a shaman for assistance with:
-
Health and Healing:
- “What can I do to improve my physical, emotional, or spiritual health?”
- “Are there any energetic imbalances or blockages that need to be addressed?”
- “How can I find relief from [specific health issue]?”
-
Life Path and Purpose:
- “What is my purpose in life, and how can I align with it more fully?”
- “What steps can I take to fulfill my potential and live a more meaningful life?”
- “How can I overcome obstacles or challenges on my path?”
-
Relationships:
- “How can I improve my relationships with my family/partner/friends?”
- “What lessons are my relationships teaching me?”
- “Is there anything I need to understand or address in my relationships?”
-
Spiritual Guidance:
- “How can I deepen my connection to the divine/source/universe?”
- “What spiritual practices or rituals would benefit me at this time?”
- “What messages do my spirit guides have for me?”
-
Personal Growth and Development:
- “What areas of personal growth should I focus on right now?”
- “How can I release limiting beliefs or patterns that are holding me back?”
- “What talents or gifts should I be nurturing?”
-
Decision Making:
- “What guidance do you have regarding [specific decision or dilemma]?”
- “What are the potential outcomes of [specific choice]?”
- “How can I make decisions that are in alignment with my highest good?”
-
Protection and Cleansing:
- “How can I protect myself from negative energies or influences?”
- “Is there anything I need to cleanse or release from my energy field or living space?”
- “What rituals or practices can help me maintain energetic balance and protection?”
These are just examples, and the questions you ask should resonate with your own intuition and personal circumstances. It’s important to approach the interaction with respect, openness, and a willingness to receive guidance in whatever form it may come.
What if I don't have a specific question?
If you don’t have a specific question but have a general intuition that a shamanic journey might help guide you, that is great! We can focus on how you are feeling physically, emotionally, and spiritually and ask for guidance from there. My favorite journeys have been working with clients who are open and ready to keep their life moving forward, who want to meet either guides or their power animals, and have spiritual support.
What can I expect after my session?
Depending on the goal and guidance of your session, you may find that you have more balance in your physical and emotional life. Sometimes the guidance we receive may be symbolic and you will need some time to navigate the meanings and how to interpret them to move forward. When we combine reiki with a shamanic journey, you may have more energy and feel more relaxed in general. You might also find that you have the ability to make major life decisions with confidence and clarity.
Is there a specific religion that I have to believe in?
Because the shamanic practices are unique to the individual yet is a thread that joins all communities and cultures together, all religions are welcome and respected. There is no religious component required for a journey session and it will not be addressed unless you would like guidance in any spiritual or religious matters.

Meet Dr. Alison DiBarto Goggin
My life path has always focused on health, energetics, and deep connections to my community and spirit world.
My training includes:
- Certified Usui Reiki Master
- Certified Breathwork Practitioner
- Functional Medicine Physician
- Shamanic practitioner with a focus on Druid and Seidr traditions
- Run Valdr practitioner
- Magdelene Priestess Initiations
Many times through my life I have been told that I am a ‘shaman’ but I didn’t begin that path until the right teacher had appeared. Through coaching, training, and the shamanic experience of ‘direct revelation’, I started my own healing path with shamanism. I incorporated my reiki and Druid practice and began journeying for others to help them through physical crises, issues with relationships and career paths, as well as emotional support.
My work with shamanism in all its forms and identities has been transformative for my life and I love working with others to help them connect with their heart, soul, and spirit. When we understand the deeper threads that connect our life, keep us stuck in cycles, and how to move forward, healing happens on many levels.
