Tara Pinsonel, known through Gaia Sophia Healing in Squamish, offers in-person and distance sessions that blend intuitive energy work, Reiki, body-based touch, and spiritual guidance. She helps people who feel stuck, weighed down by old patterns, or disconnected from themselves find more coherence and ease.
Her sessions are conversational and embodied: she may track energy, use breath and touch, and share channeled insight as the work unfolds. She also brings more than 20 years of massage experience and training in somatic, psychological, and shamanic approaches, which gives her work a grounded, practical feel.
