I’m Katie.

I trained under Dr. Isa Gucciardi, PhD at the Foundation of the Sacred Stream, am a Minister in the Foundation of the Sacred Stream, and am certified in the following areas:

  • Hypnotism

  • Depth Hypnosis

  • Applied Shamanism

  • Energy Medicine

  • Plant Medicine Preparation and Integration

Born and raised in the Midwest, I graduated from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign with a degree in Communications and Sociology.

In addition to my work as a case manager in the Illinois foster care system, I spent seven years facilitating large workshops in high schools both nationally and internationally. These workshops focused on social emotional learning and trauma informed care.

While maintaining my counseling practice, I also began working with the Foundation of the Sacred Stream in 2019 managing classes and programs. This has kept me very close to the work and I deeply enjoy playing a role in supporting the education of healers on their own path, benefitting both themselves and others. I work with all ages, as well as healers and seekers who are finding their way.

My life has been dedicated to helping others recognize and embrace the power they have. My career in supporting others has culminated in this practice that I feel to be one of the most profound and effective forms of healing. While we can appreciate the beauty, the lessons, and growth in our journeys, we don’t have to carry our past pains into the future.
