ABOUT ME

Thank you for being here, I am so happy you took the time to find out more about me! My name is Courtney, and I am a compassionate, funny, sensitive, and magical witchy woman. Technically I have been a medium my entire life, but it wasn’t until I was an adult that I began to embrace my gifts and understand their value and service to others. Growing up I was a combination of Wednesday Addams and Lydia Deetz from Beetleguese. As you can imagine, it was a bit rough and I struggled to embrace and accept my abilities. It wasn’t until I was much older that I learned to take ownership over them. My work in deathcare and the funeral industry were a huge influence and helped me to understand the comfort I could provide to those in grief. One of my gifts in working with those in grief is my ability to remove myself entirely so I may hold space without judgment. Now, I extend these skills when I read for people and am able to clearly convey messages without my own thoughts, experiences, and judgments interfering . Many of the people that I work with have mentioned my ability to hold space for them and their loved one, even in the most difficult situations. In our sessions, I want you to feel connected and feel that even after death you can have a relationship with your loved one if you choose. I also want you to learn to trust yourself and your intuition in the process.
As a psychic and intuitive reader, I often receive messages and insights around events, people, and situations. I have a clear read on energy and am able to see and feel where energy might be getting stuck or held back. I utilize Tarot as a tool to more deeply connect to myself and spirit. Because personal agency is a value I deeply uphold, I will never offer predictions – instead I help to turn your gaze inward so you can connect more deeply with yourself and bring forward only what is in your highest and best interest. I also help to remove some of the energetic blocks you may be experiencing and offer gentle guidance and tools to assist you. I hope through our sessions you can see that you are always connected with your own intuition and personal power.
I am a certified grief educator under the training of David Kessler, a healing practitioner trained in The Self- LOVE Process Ⓡ with Christen Daniel LLC, an end-of-life doula trained through INELDA, and a hypnosis practitioner under the study and mentorship with Shauna Cummins of the Divine Feminine School of Hypnosis. I am also a certified hypnotist through the National Guild of Hypnotists. All of this work has contributed to how I hold space and work with clients.
With over a decade of teaching yoga, meditation, pranayama, and breathwork, I am deeply grounded in practices that allow us to connect deeply with our intuition in our work together.
I currently reside on the ancestral and occupied lands of the Chochenyo Ohlone people, now known as Oakland, California. I commit to being LGBTQIA2S+ affirming and anti-racist in my personal and professional life. My pronouns are she/her/hers.
What People Are Saying

I worked with Courtney during an existential crisis of sorts during my early postpartum months as a first time mother. During our work together, I had powerful insights about my new identity as a mother and received guidance about how to work with my maternal lineage as I step into motherhood. Courtney is able to hold space for complex and complicated topics with humor and lightheartedness. Her psychic abilities and intuition are incredible. Working with Courtney was deeply healing, validating, and clarifying for me during a deeply challenging time in my life.

To be honest, I wasn't even sure where I was going with my questions when I asked them, but the cards that surfaced and Courtney's thoughtful, insightful interpretation of their meanings moved me to tears. With the help of this guidance, I was able to start trusting my intuition, and the meaningful life decisions I have set my path towards became clearer, more in focus, and they felt tangible for the first time.

My experience with Courtney was phenomenal! She was able to connect to my relative in a unique way. She knew some things that there was no way to discover other than through true connection. Courtney was detailed and clear with what my relative needed to relay to me.
