To me, Alchemical Healing is…
Alchemical Healing is a transformative process that supports and encourages the client’s evolution to live their lives to the fullest, most realized manifestation. The alchemical process is an embodied journey in which the clinical encounter affects change and transformation at the level of consciousness, behavior as well as at the cellular level.
How Can I Help You
I can help you become more intimate with your sensations, feelings and aliveness. My work supports you to be as present as possible to your fullly-embodied self and to face your challenges as opportunities.

To me, Alchemical Healing is…
Alchemical Healing is transformative medicine, not restorative medicine. It strives to guide you on your path to wholeness. This means that it regards illness as an informative opportunity rather than something to conquer so you can get back to your old self. The goal is to guide you forward on your path to authentic wholeness.
How Can I Help You
When imbalances occur, as they always do, my goal is to catalyze the body’s innate ability to heal. The tools I use to stimulate this process include acupuncture, moxibustion, lifestyle counseling, Chinese herbal medicine, essential oils, flower essences, and inner sensing. I am a general practitioner that especially enjoys treating mental health concerns, women’s health, and digestive issues.

Angela (Angie) Clifford
English
Minneapolis, MN
(612) 387-9335
To me, Alchemical Healing is…
The engagement of an intentional process to address a wound to our psyche or emotional/spiritual body. Much like a physical wound healing, a container is established and the healing is done with tender inner work, and on its own time. The goal is to bring new possibilities of resiliency and strength, and to walk in the storm of life with a nourished sense of agency and ability.
How Can I Help You
I bring into our session the transformational tools of Spirit Point Acupuncture, flower essence therapy, somatic inner sensing guidance, imagination, and movement as medicine.

Christopher Miller
English
Portland, OR
(503) 610-3488
To me, Alchemical Healing is…
Alchemical Healing is the practice of attuning ourselves to — ourSelves. The Self that isn’t in pain, is always connected to wisdom and truth, and that is already whole. When we live a worldly life, we start to align ourselves with the names, dates, places, roles, and experiences we hold so important. The attunement with Self becomes incoherent and fuzzy. Alchemy helps us recognize the Self and reminds us of who we are, and where we’re going.
How Can I Help You
I foster authenticity and coherence of self, using the tools of deep listening, active imagining, ceremony and ritual, the I Ching, Tea, Bodywork, Mindfulness, and Acupuncture. I practice one-on-one, in group settings, in person and virtually.

Dr. Heather Jones

Albuquerque, NM

To me, Alchemical Healing is…
To me, Alchemical Healing is working in cooperation with our humanness – our physical body AND our Soul – our unique spark of divinity, in order to express our truest nature. It’s taking all of our physical and emotional symptoms, our wounds, pain, experiences, outgrown patterns and self-sabotaging habits, and transforming them into the wisdom and nourishment needed to heal and embody our most Radiant Essence.
How Can I Help You
After nearly 20 years of professional and lived personal experience walking through physical and emotional symptoms into the psychospiritual roots of dis-ease, I know the crucible that is chronic illness and spiritual sickness. Using ancient shamanic and Taoist wisdom, alchemical acupuncture, plant medicine and your body’s own wise guidance, together we’ll create a unique healing practice to support your process now, and for years to come.

Bowie, MD
(301) 352-2520
To me, Alchemical Healing is…
Alchemical healing facilitates transformation by addressing profound imbalances at the physical, mental, and spiritual levels. It harmonizes nature-based wisdom of the five elements with the essential journey into the unknown—a fundamental requirement for life itself.
How Can I Help You
I view each person holistically rather than defining them by their diseases. My work with patients aims to achieve transformation at the physical, mental, and spiritual levels. I focus on exploring the root causes of diseases.

Grace Killpack

Orinda, CA
(415) 890-6505
To me, Alchemical Healing is…
Alchemical Healing is the uncovering and re-emergence of the gold that is inherent within us all, revealing our innate goodness and purity. When we shine the healing light of love and compassion to the layers of protection that we’ve armored ourselves to survive this world, we create a space for transformation in our hearts where grace, love, and joy may enter.
How Can I Help You
I see myself as a guide for those seeking to remember their own capacity to thrive and live authentically in this life. By using acupuncture, mindfulness practices, intuition, herbal remedies, essential oils and flower essences, I can help you remember the gold that is within and rediscover your true self. We will work through re-wiring old narratives that no longer serve you, so you may create new possibilities for your life moving forward.

Irene Shabazi Rowland
English, Farsi
Thousand Oaks, CA
(818) 618-0086
To me, Alchemical Healing is…
Rooted in the belief that true healing comes from aligning with one’s authentic self in a gentle yet powerful path that honors our body, psyche, and spirit, helping us reconnect with our inner nature, honoring our lead as gold and witnessing how the body heals through this refining process.
How Can I Help You
I offer my support as a guide, helping you access the body’s wisdom through the deeper, spiritual aspects of acupuncture and trauma-informed somatic practices. Because we reflect the natural world, we work with plant allies—through essential oils, flower essences, or a walk among the oaks—reconnecting with the more-than-human world that leads you profoundly home to your true self.
