Valerie is a certified hypnotherapist, Akashic Records reader and Intuitive healer/Artist. She has been practicing Reiki and other healing modalities for 20 years, and has been working within the Akashic Records for the last 5 years. "Akasha" is a Sanskrit word meaning "primary substance, that out of which all things are formed." The Records contain the record of your soul's existence; you can thi

nk of it like a library where all of the books are about you. Work done in the Records offers powerful soul level healing, and enables us to have a more conscious relationship with our own soul. Valerie is a pioneer in working with past life regression hypnosis within the Akashic Records; extending the scope and depth of healing at the soul level not just the ego level. Hypnosis within the Akashic Records can potentially help heal lifetime patterns. She can also hypnotize groups, work with couples, and help you work through any kind of stress in your life. Valerie paints Intuitive Soul Portraits: They are her interpretation of the energy of your soul. All are abstract, acrylic on canvas, original, healing and unique to each individual. Her artwork is not limited to people; she has the ability to paint energy of places, buildings, animals and anything else that you can imagine. “I offer the unique “side benefit” of being able to paint your Soul. As I open your Akashic records and tune into your energy field in order to help you to heal, I am able to “see” the energy of your soul. I am a painter, and offer this personal and unique visual reminder of the beauty of your inner self as a keepsake and as a tool to help you to delve more deeply into your own soul.”
Valerie speaks to audiences about promoting personal health, wellness, alternative healing methods and expanding consciousness. She enjoys writing about energy healing and how it helps us to help ourselves, and has had articles published in local and national magazines. Valerie is a member of the National Guild of Hypnotists, the Association for Research and Enlightenment, and currently sees clients in Charlottesville, VA and by phone. She travels to Northern VA and the Tidewater area regularly to see clients as well.

Whether you’re processing a transition, unraveling an old pattern, or just longing to reconnect with your creative soul—this is a gentle yet powerful portal inward.

No art skill needed. Just willingness. Just curiosity. Just yourself.

Inner work.
It's real work. May has been a month of (often intense) inner work for many, especially if we are clearing for our inner child. I offer a monthly newsletter that may offer you some support. Link in my bio.

Happy Friday. Day before yesterday, the redemption card came up. Today it popped up again with curiosity. If you get my newsletter, you’ll notice that the last two months the same cards have showed up. When I draw cards, I set the intention to receive the message for myself and for the collective, or whoever takes an interest in reading these messages. The fact that the redemption card came out day before yesterday has great significance. Drawing it twice signals a spiritual threshold moment. Spirit is repeating this message with urgency and love. You’re likely in a window of time where true redemption is possible — not as a lofty ideal, but in the deeply personal, practical sense: clearing karma, rewriting a story, or allowing light into a long-darkened room of the heart. Now comes the curiosity card like a breath of fresh air. It invites us to explore possibilities outside of our current framework. It encourages us to look at our story with different eyes. It’s asking us to look at the redemption card from a higher perspective, even a playfulness. We are being offered a profound clearing — a soul-level redemption. We don’t have to force it, fix it, or figure it all out. Approach it with curiosity. Let mystery lead. Let grace work where our will once tried. Be willing to see the sacred in what once felt broken. Powerful cards for sure, and we’re in a powerful time of change and transition. Welcome to soul level clearing! I think we’re clearing eons of karma among other things. Happy weekend! I always welcome your thoughts as to how the cards speak to you.
