Each session is designed to support deeper connection with yourself through embodied awareness, intuitive insight, and energetic healing
Astrology, Energy Work, and Ceremony in Portland, Oregon + Virtual
Paths to Embodiment
These offerings are designed to meet you where you are.
Some sessions focus on insight and clarity. Others focus on emotional processing, energetic release, or deeper integration in the body.
All of them are rooted in the same intention: supporting you in coming into deeper relationship with yourself.
Astrology Reading + Energy Work
This is not a traditional astrology reading! Embodied Astrology is a deeply intuitive and somatic exploration of your birth chart as a living, unfolding experience.
In this session, we start by reading your chart. Then we will move into intuitive guidance and parts-based awareness to explore how your patterns, gifts, and life themes are currently expressing in your lived experience.
Rather than focusing only on prediction or personality, we focus on embodiment—how your chart is showing up in your body, your relationships, and your present moment choices.
This work supports:
deeper self-understanding and clarity
connection to intuition and inner knowing
integration of emotional and relational patterns
alignment with your authentic path forward
Embodied Astrology Session
This session blends Reiki energy healing, intuitive reading, and emotionally focused processing.
I work in connection with intuitive guidance, which may include insight from spirit guides, ancestors, loved ones in spirit, and supportive energetic allies such as plant and animal consciousness.
The intention of this work is to bring unconscious patterns, emotions, and energetic imprints into greater awareness so they can be processed, integrated, and released.
Sessions are guided by what is most present in your system and may support emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and deeper self-understanding.
Clients often come to this work seeking support with:
processing unresolved emotional or traumatic experiences
easing physical or somatic holding patterns connected to stress or pain
gaining clarity in relationships
strengthening trust in their intuition and inner knowing
This is a relational, attuned process that meets you where you are and moves at the pace of your system.
Energy Work + Parts Work
In this container, I will guide you through a ceremonial cacao experience designed to support presence, emotional awareness, and heart connection.
Cacao contains theobromine, a gentle natural stimulant that can support a sense of openness, clarity, and grounded energy in the body. When taken in a ceremonial dose, cacao can help soften parts and create space for deeper connection with yourself.
This experience may support:
emotional clarity and processing
self-compassion and inner connection
deeper presence with your inner world
exploration of spirituality and intuitive awareness
integration of insights that arise during the session
Working with cacao in this way is a reflective and embodied process. It can feel like a subtle expanded-state experience, not through intensity, but through softening and attunement.
Each ceremony is guided by your intention and what is present for you in the moment.

Embodied Astrology is typically a deeper, less frequent session that offers orientation and clarity during key transitions or moments of reflection.
Energy Work is for you if you’re wanting emotional processing, energetic clearing, or ongoing support (think weekly or biweekly) as you move through life experiences. This is often a good fit if you’re looking for a more regular, supportive rhythm.
Cacao Ceremony is for you if you’re wanting a more heart-centered, intentional experience that supports emotional openness, self-connection, and gentle exploration of your inner world. This can be especially supportive if you’re feeling disconnected, seeking clarity through reflection, or wanting to deepen your relationship with yourself or your spirituality.
I’m Lauren! I’m glad you’re here.
Around the same time, I was beginning to experience the depth of therapy and Internal Family Systems work. It was helping me reconnect with myself in profound ways—but I also found myself wishing I could bring everything together: the psychological, the somatic, and the intuitive.
That became the beginning of this work.
Today, I integrate astrology, Reiki, energy work, and intuitive guidance with a deeply embodied, parts-aware approach. I don’t see intuition as something outside of us. It’s something we return to via our healing process and in relationship with the body. Many of the people I work with already know, somewhere deep inside, that they are intuitive. But like I once did, they doubt themselves. They override themselves. They stay in patterns that disconnect them from their own knowing.
This work is about coming back into trust with yourself. Not as an idea, but as a lived, felt experience.
As that trust returns, something begins to shift: relationships become clearer, choices feel more aligned, and life starts to move in a way that feels less forced and more true.
I see clients in Portland, Oregon (John’s Landing) and virtually all over the world. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, poly-aware, and fat positive. I hold lived experience with infertility and IVF, and I support clients navigating those experiences with care and understanding. I am white, Jewish, and queer. I live in deep companionship with my two border collies, my partner, and the magical plant and animal spirits around me.

I was a highly sensitive, intuitive child. I saw, felt, and knew things I didn’t have language for—and often, no one around me seemed to notice in the same way.
When I was eight, I became convinced I had diabetes. I remember insisting my mom take me to the doctor. I didn’t have it.
A few weeks later, my sister was diagnosed.
No one told me my intuition was wrong, but something in me learned it might be dangerous. I began to associate knowing with fear—like if I trusted what I sensed, it could somehow bring harm to the people I loved.
Over time, I shut that part of myself down. I asked my spirit guides to go away. I learned how to be someone who looked outward for answers instead of inward.
For years, I did what I thought I was supposed to do. I sought validation outside myself, tried to shape myself into something more acceptable, more certain, more contained. I changed my body. I changed my choices. I tried to earn a sense of safety.
But none of it created the connection I was longing for.
When I received my first astrology reading, something in me softened. I felt seen in a way I hadn’t in years—not just understood, but recognized. My intuitive nature wasn’t something to fix or fear; it was something that was already written into who I am.
“My experience with Lauren was fabulous and deeply meaningful! She is a master at her craft and helped me connect with some of the current themes in my life in a refreshing and energizing way. I loved that she was able to help me see a deeper layer to my birth chart that I hadn’t explored before, and I’ve had several chart readings in the past. Her intuition and communication make astrology feel easy to integrate and her style is warm, funny, and caring! She also gave me some great information about upcoming cycles in my life that I will be paying close attention to! Lauren is wonderful and I would recommend a chart reading with her to anyone!”
