Curating atmospheres of relaxation through oracular states of embodied awareness…
For me, the gifts of a spiritual life are here in the now. It lives in the daily practice of reverence. We create obstacles when we live disconnected from the wisdom that already lives in our hearts. My work is to help you remember where your own wisdom is trying to lead you.
Motherhood, a journey.
Becoming a mother of three children has been one of the most transformative experiences; learning patience, compassion, humility, strength as well as deep love and connection. Better said, my children raise the human in me. I witness myself being met with an ongoing opportunity to rewrite timelines into the past as well as into my future generations. What is ending in me, as well as beginning through me and my family? This is an integral aspect that comes up in the work with my clients: what are you letting go and what are you here to create anew?
How I’ve learned the daily practice of reverence while living in a Zen community.
My journey towards healing and guiding others began during my time in residency at the Cambridge Zen Center in the early 2000s. Living within the Zen community, I experienced the profound power of community, ritual, and the cultivation of the mind-body connection. This transformative experience laid the foundation for my work as a practitioner, emphasizing the importance of connection, collective healing, and the exploration of our inner selves.
Remembering our whole selves - both somatic and spiritual dimensions.
My current work encompasses sound healing, cacao ritual, hypnosis, and energy work. Through these practices, we explore your subconscious self, uncover lessons and wisdom through your ancestral lineage, harmonize your energetic body and bring more wholeness and peace in you. I love to witness my clients emerge with a greater sense of inner peace, clarity and self awareness. (For more details about these individual practices, read my intuitive guidance page)

Testimonials
“Beth has the most incredible gift for holding sacred space. From the moment she arrived at my yoga studio, her calming presence transformed the entire atmosphere. There's something deeply grounding about her energy – she emanates peace and intention in a way that immediately puts everyone at ease.
She moved through the space with such reverence and care, creating a container that felt both safe and sacred. Her voice is soothing and her demeanor genuinely warm, making every participant feel welcome and held throughout the experience.
What struck me most was Beth's authentic embodiment of the work she does. She doesn't just facilitate cacao ceremonies – she lives and breathes them. Her presence alone is healing. She's intuitive, professional, and radiates a quiet confidence that allows others to fully surrender and receive.
Beth is a true space holder and I'm grateful to have collaborated with her. I wholeheartedly recommend her! We cannot wait to welcome you back, Beth!”

”This was my second year working with Beth for my birthday, and I truly can’t imagine the celebration without her presence and magic. She led a beautiful cacao ceremony and sound bath alongside Diana’s future-self visualization, and together they created such an intentional, grounding, and heart-opening experience.
Beth has such a gift for holding space – calm yet radiant, deeply attuned to the energy in the room, and always guiding with warmth, care, and intuition. Everyone left feeling connected, inspired, and transformed.
It’s always an absolute pleasure to work with her. She brings so much love and authenticity to what she does, and it shows in every moment. I’m endlessly grateful for her and can’t wait for our paths to cross again next year. “
– Patricia De Pauw
“My cacao and sound healing session with Beth was almost indescribable, but I'll try... It felt like a portal, where I melted into a calm, beautiful, restful energy that helped me remember and connect with who I truly am at the core, outside of this matrix human existence, where we are constantly being pulled at, and demanded to be things we are not. Beth created a soft yet powerful space for me to tap into my truth, and to continue on my healing/remembering path. She is so gifted, and I am beyond grateful to have experienced how she facilitates healing. I will definitely be back 🙏”
– Colette Grodner
”Beth is an incredible talent, not only musically, but as a space holder, caregiver, and general human being. She made the space welcoming and supportive, the sound journey was absolutely transcendent, and she created a soft opening for others to share and mingle afterwards which was like a warm, grounding hug after a magical carpet ride.”
