      <image:caption>A resident of Orcas since 1980, I began my training in the healing arts in 1987 with Reiki energy healing. I have been part of the Healing Arts Center since 1988. My specialty is TRAGER Psychophysical Integration; a mouthful to say, yes, but very lovely to feel. The Trager Approach involves an ‘educated’ stretching of the body’s tissues, encouraging opening, release and integration through an experience of undulations and rocking, articulation of joints, all within an “attitude” of light, freeing, effortless movement. Trager works deeply and holistically with the mind-body, pain free. I am also adept in Swedish massage and can accommodate a client’s desire for Lomi Lomi, some deep tissue work, stone massage, pregnancy, postpartum, chair massage, and injury and illness treatment. I am self-educated in nutrition, use of plant oils (DoTerra) and plant essences (Perelandra). I constantly delve into the subject of Consciousness through many avenues including the Avatar courses created by Harry Palmer. My current study is meridian massage incorporating the benefit of this ancient energy awareness with other modalities and knowledge; I continue to integrate for our mutual wellbeing. Other activities and interests: I work as professional seamstress, knitting instructor and a naturalist of 40 years in both the marine and terrestrial environs. I am a passionate explorer of all Nature, both physical and metaphysical, and love to share the sacred joy of nurturing touch and healing intent. Organic gardening is a current joy for my own well-being balance. May you be happy and well. You may contact Deborah directly at whalelight7@gmail.com or through the Healing Arts Center.

      <image:caption>The central goal that I have in meeting with my clients is to assist them in finding more happiness and freedom in their lives. The intention I have is to explore with you your desire to have a more healthy balance in the emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical aspects of your life. A central question that I keep in mind is:”How can I be helpful?”. I encourage my clients to make overall goals for our counseling relationship as well as for each appointment. When I meet with my clients, my hope is to create together an atmosphere of safety, respect and trust. My focus is to encourage my clients’ exploration of their own personal power, wisdom and resources for understanding, healing and happiness. I provide child, individual, couple and family counseling/psychotherapy and also assist in resolving couple/family/organizational disputes as a conflict mediator. My work as a counselor began in Alaska in 1979 and I have practiced at the Healing Arts Center since 1995. I am licensed in Washington as an Independent Clinical Social Worker and have extensive experience and training in marriage and family therapy. Since 1985 I have provided mediation services and am a Designated Mediator in San Juan County. I have also offered hospice care giving and elder care as a Certified Nursing Assistant. The therapeutic approaches I offer include: trauma recovery, mindfulness training, stress and anger management, grief work, cognitive/behavioral therapy, insight work, hypnotherapy, creative imagery, play therapy, Jungian dream work, substance abuse and sexual addiction recovery, family of origin, family systems, ritual/ceremony development and adventure-based education. My focus is to arrive at a creative balance of these approaches that best matches each client’s needs. Since 1985 I have had the honor of studying with traditional Northwest Coast medicine people and have received training in shamanic healing and journeying and offer shamanic work when clients request it.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I enjoy providing nurturing and caring massage to my family and community and have been doing so for over 10 years now. I love that I always have my hands with me and that wherever I go I am able to share my work. I have traveled to many remote places and have so enjoyed seeing the wonder on people’s faces as I give them a hand massage or neck massage.  People light up whether it is a new friend or acquaintance, friends or family there is something that comes alive in people when they are able to experience a gentle and caring touch. I truly believe in the power of touch and the awareness that it brings to each person about their body, mind and spirit.  I create a warm, nurturing and safe place for clients to focus on the health and healing of their whole selves, whether it is an injury that needs treatment, relaxation to release stress or grounding with your inner self. My treatments involve both technical awareness of the muscles and a clear intuitive sense of how to help work with each individual person. My treatments include therapeutic and deep tissue massage, foot reflexology, Therapeutic Touch, and facilitated stretching. I also use heat packs to help facilitate the relaxation process and aid in the treatment of injuries. I enjoy using a blend of these and more modalities to address the specific needs of each client. Through my massage my hope and intention is to help people look inside themselves a little more, let go a little more and love a lot more.  I look forward to working with you.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I have been practicing bodywork since graduating from the Heartwood Institute in California in 1981.  The Healing Arts Center has been the home for my private practice since 1995. I have training in many styles of bodywork, and especially enjoy working with elders these days. The unique approach I bring to my bodywork, I believe, is a body-mind-spirit orientation. I am delighted to help clients free themselves of aches and pains. I love to help clients integrate physical changes with a renewed sense of emotional well-being. My work is usually accompanied by carefully chosen music, though you may choose silence, or just the sound of waves. I am comfortable working with all ages, with pregnant and postpartum women, and with people experiencing serious illness, grief/trauma, or life transitions, as well as injuries and ordinary stress-related tensions and imbalances.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Ashley Elaine Shenk - Bio</image:title>
      <image:caption>I am so grateful that massage gives me a way to share my reverence for the power of loving touch and to offer this as a service to my community. I find that touch conveys feelings and expressions that are beyond words, and that depth of communication is unique within every session I offer. Whether working with pain, moving stuck lymph and energy, increasing body awareness, or encouraging relaxation, touch is extremely powerful for me and I feel so honored to hold this space for others.  My focus is on helping my clients connect more deeply to their bodies and to move any physical and energetic blockages held there. I offer Ayurvedic lymphatic massage, which includes warm towels and stones, gua shas, dry cupping, and manual massage techniques to help create more flow in the body. I also offer Women’s Embodiment Massages, which can include these lymphatic techniques as well as breast and abdominal massage. I believe that contacting the whole body in this way has the possibility to bring deep healing to these feminine and vulnerable parts of ourselves. I offer sliding scale prices to support those who would normally not be able to afford this healing work. I believe everyone should have access to healing services regardless of economic status. I am especially interested in working with women and mothers.  If you wish to book with me, please email me at ashleyelainelmt@gmail.com, visit my website at ashleyelaine.me, or contact the Healing Arts Center at (360) 376-4002. I look forward to working with you!  *Though I am currently unable to take more clients on Orcas Island, you are welcome to come visit me at my Friday Harbor location.

      <image:title>Iona McCombie Smith - Bio</image:title>
      <image:caption>I opened Ambika Healing in 2018 whilst living in the Netherlands as a practice dedicated to holding space for authentic healing through the use of Ayurvedic massage practices and Thai massage techniques. Upon arriving in the US, I began studying therapeutic massage at the Northwest Academy of the Healing Arts in Seattle. Today, my practice integrates techniques from both my Eastern and Western training, with you always at its centre.  I deeply believe in the power of healing touch and consider it an honour to work in this field; facilitating healing in both the physical and emotional body. In order to return the body to a state of ease and alignment, I come to the body humbly and allow its wisdom to guide my work facilitating a release of tension through the use of techniques such as myofascial release, trigger point therapy, muscle energy techniques, orthopaedic testing, ayurvedic abhyanga, ayurvedic marma manipulation, and Thai massage.  I am passionate about supporting clients in finding relief from pain, ease in movement, a deepening connection to their body and an understanding of the uniqueness of their needs.  To book a massage or to find out more about my practice please visit my website www.ambika-healing.com or contact the healing arts center at (360) 376-4002.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Peggy Jo Rain - Bio</image:title>
      <image:caption>After receiving a profound healing from a skilled therapist many years ago, I learned how the power of massage can transform the body, mind and spirit. This experience ignited in me a passion to learn the work, and a desire to bring such well-being to others. My initial training took me to Chiang Mai, Thailand in 2001 where I studied the art of traditional Thai massage with master teachers for two years. I returned to the US and attended The New Mexico Academy of Healing Arts, receiving a diploma in 2003. My bodywork has been deeply informed by the integration of east and west traditions. Deep tissue muscle release combined with Thai stretching techniques open up energy blocks, promote flexibility, and bring the body to an overall sense of balance. Through my ability to listen to the body, I create a treatment that’s needed in the moment. My massage has been described as “relaxing, yet energizing”. During my decades of practice I have massaged people of all ages, with many different needs. I’ve also completed many hours of continuing education in various modalities, including: reflexology, pregnancy massage, myofascial release, hot stone therapy, sports massage, Traeger therapy, and aromatherapy, and I incorporate these in my work. My roots on Orcas Island go back thirty years, and it has been an honor to serve in this community, and now it is a privilege to continue my work at the Healing Arts Center which has been a beacon of nurture and healing for decades. I am currently accepting new clients on Friday and Saturday. To book an appointment, call: 206-409-5761</image:caption>

      <image:title>Jenny Park - Bio</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hello! My name is Jenny Park and I am a mix of Modern and Hellenistic Astrologer, focusing on various classic timing techniques (transits, aspects, profections, progressions, and moon phases), while integrating the nodes and using principles from evolutionary astrology.  I studied and trained under Kelly Surtees, the NORWAC (Northwest Astrological) conferences, Astrology University and Jodi King. I opened my own practice, Starwandered, in 2023 focusing on natal charts, and year ahead readings.  I am fascinated by astrology, how the cosmic movements/energy of the natural world can be a weather report for what is happening around and within us. I view a natal chart as not just the time, place and date of birth, but a map of the night sky imprinted onto our souls the minute we took our first breath. Understanding the energy of the chart can help us navigate who we came into the world to be, how we operate (consciously and unconsciously), and to work with our energy and the energy around us to grow, change and become. A natal chart is a map of who you are and where you are going to have ease in your life, and where you will be challenged. Adding in timing techniques we can create a weather report for when those moments of ease and challenge are likely to occur. This insight can help you in determining when to push and when to rest, to be gentle with yourself and honor your natural rhythms and have less shame for how you operate. As a mother of 7 ( 6 daughters and 1 son), I have seen how astrology can help me be a kinder and more understanding person. It becomes a language to understand my children and how I can adapt to communicate better with them, love and support them in a way that honors their individuality. It has also given me insight into my 25 year marriage to my handsome hubby. When we more fully understand and accept ourselves, we can create relationships, friendships, work environments, and even live in areas that are better suited and healthier for us.  My goal is to empower you to see yourself with clarity and less judgment. To compassionately understand all the parts of you and how they work together. I want you to walk away from a reading more equipped with your map and weather report, your tools, to live a life you choose and want. To feel connected as the special part of the universe that you are, unique in your gifts, abilities and choices.  My family recently moved to Orcas this summer, though we have visited the island for years as we have family living in Eastsound. My husband teaches over at the high school and martial arts classes. I like to say he is the science of the stars and I am the interpreter of what they are saying. We live in Olga with our youngest 5 children, and are blessed to live where the sun rises early and the mist surrounds us like a hug.  If you would like to chat with this quirky Sagitarrius rising, Taurus sun, Libra moon please give me a call to book a reading at (801) 709-9923</image:caption>

      <image:title>Anna McConnell - Bio</image:title>
      <image:caption>I am a clinical social worker who provides individual psychotherapy to adults.  I offer in-person, telehealth, and walk-and-talk sessions and frequently do a combination. I work with people across identities, lived experiences, and relationship styles.  My non-judgmental approach and compassion toward conflicting feelings resonates especially well with folks impacted by individual and collective trauma/grief, encountering a significant life transition, living with anxious/depressive feelings and thought patterns, or simply wanting to engage in supported reflection.  Talk therapy with me covers a full spectrum of topics.  We may explore impacts and understandings of past narratives, meaningful relationships, current events, emotional/behavioral awareness, overall mental wellness, possible ways to move from insight to change, or simply what’s going on in your day-to-day life. My approach is responsive to the individual and does not exclusively utilize any single methodology.  Informed by my years of experience working within complex systems, I pull from a range of therapeutic strategies, including but not limited to mindfulness-based cognitive, psychodynamic, existential humanistic, and polyvagal theory-based somatic therapies.     In my free time outside of the therapy room, I learn as much as possible about birds and continue to work on my bread baking skills.  I also love to read and will many times check out books that people I work with resonate with or recommend. Whether this is your first time seeking therapy or you are looking to return, starting outside support with someone new is a big deal.  I recognize that you have your own definition and process in feeling safe, so we will work together to co-create a therapeutic relationship that honors your autonomy and goes at your own pace. For prospective clients, I provide an initial free 15-minute phone consultation to discuss engaging in therapy, sense if we may work well together, and review logistics.  To request a consult, email me directly at anna@connectedtherapynorthwest.com To learn more about me and my practice, visit my website:  connectedtherapynorthwest.com</image:caption>
