Consults

consults

I love to connect with people on a personal level~ it is a beautiful process getting to understand all that makes us individuals~ what nourishes our needs and sparks our desires. Consults are the best way for me to provide educated suggestions for which path and sacred tools are possible and most beneficial for growth and healing. Each of my consults offer recommendations and invitations to begin a journey with herbal remedies and rituals to support optimal nourishment, vitality and purpose along your path.

I believe that the medicine we need is the medicine that grows all around us. I enjoy working with herbs that are native to local and ancestral lands ~ that of the Leni Lenape and of my Celtic roots of Ireland and Scotland. Wild foraging allows me to spend more time understanding the medicine of plants growing in harmony with their natural habitat and how they align with the seasons and the cosmos.

workshops

Hello, I'm Katie...

I am a folk herbalist, artist, alchemist, gardener and Flower Essence guide. I feel that the right sacred tools and wellness practices are what is most needed for our evolution in this new paradigm. My Sacred Vessel Arts offerings are created with the intent to re-awaken wild wonder and encourage intentional well-being in individuals and within the community.

My wellness products are garden grown, locally wild harvested and personally handcrafted in small batches and in harmony with the seasons to invoke mind-body-spirit healing and transformation. My art is a reflection of my journeys and the inspiration I find in nature. Exploration and curiosity of the sacred and the mysterious guide a weaving of ancient patterns and ancestral nostalgia throughout my work. These Sacred tools and rituals support my Workshops and Consultations.

I see herbalism and creativity as an empowered act of social justice and practice of the mythic resistance. I live and educate in reciprocity on Leni Lenape land and in reverence of my ancient Irish roots, ancestors and traditions.

I have a BFA in Crafts from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia in Metal and Fiber Art techniques. My studies include Homestead Herbalism, Herbalist A&P, Astro-Herbalism, Flower Essences, Cultural Anthropologyß and Irish Mystery School.
