Kalila’s Story
Growing up in the wild wet green of Western Washington’s Stillaguamish territory, being psychic was a practice embedded into my upbringing and the untamed rainforest that nurtured my childhood dreams, visions and intuition. My grandmother-a longtime teacher at Berkeley Psychic Institute-became my first mentor, offering me tools and practices from her lineage that continue to guide my path. My sister, too, was a touchstone—introducing me to tarot and steeping me in Wiccan ritual and values, grounding my spirit work in the sacred rhythms of the material realm & the support of divine feminine traditions. My insight has been shaped both by decades of practice and dedicated study. I've trained across diverse energetic modalities, supporting individuals, groups, and the collective through intuitive healing.
In spring of 2015, this journey deepened at Esalen Institute, where my psychic abilities took on new meaning and significance. Ritual and whimsy became daily companions and teachers of balance. The sacred feminine revealed herself in dramatic Big Sur splendor—mountains holding me in home, sea and sky offering endless possibility. My grandmother had passed the autumn before and her presence felt especially near. In communion with spirits, ancestors, and the healing elements of earth, water, and air, my gifts ripened. My relationship with the unseen deepened through intentional practice.
By 2018, I committed to 500 hours of Esalen Massage certification, which catalyzed a unique expansion in energetic healing and sight. Each body I touched became a portal—visually attuning to the energetic landscape I created space for healing through intuitive touch. In 2019, eager to explore my body as a compass on the spiritual path, I completed a 300-hour yoga teacher training. These certifications became an integral part of my offerings at Esalen, at Post Ranch Inn and in private practice.
I've been fortunate to learn from a rich tapestry of female leaders. Deborah Anne Meadow anchored my massage endeavors, Janet Stone my yogic expression. Erika Gagnon—a powerful ceremonial leader with whom I trained to tend the sacred fire for sweat lodge and assisted in her workshop, Healing Wisdom For Modern Times: You Are Your Own Greatest Healer—continues to charm my path of service by example of her own.
In recent years, I’ve begun teaching “Psychic Meditation”—an introduction to clairvoyance—at Post Ranch Inn and for private groups in Big Sur. I also led two month-long cohorts for Esalen Institute’s Residential Extended Education Program: Psychic Meditation and The Subtle Body.
My formal training includes courses from Berkeley Psychic Institute, InVision and Art of the Seer Academy, from which I built a foundation rooted in curiosity, clarity, and energetic sovereignty.
Throughout the years, much of what some would call “supernatural” has proven to be super natural—not in the sense of the word super meaning beyond natural but in the sense that it is extremely natural in truth. We humans may have distanced ourselves from the natural world with the rise of industry but we remain powerful creative beings with innate abilities to tune into greater wisdom & guidance at any moment. I am grateful to witness this regularly with clients, students & in my own sphere. As a psychic, healer, teacher & always eager student of this wildly precious life, playfulness, humor & neutral presence guide my course in empowering others to tap into higher knowing. Compelled by the spirit of activism, I find true purpose sharing an array of healing modalities, artistic expression & clairvoyant offerings in Big Sur & online. Honoring the beauty of nature, the wonder of mystery, the wisdom of elders & the more-than-human, I live life as an expressive gift & active prayer.
My reading with Kalila was deeply insightful. She had such compassion and care while delivering guidance that was truly life-altering. At first, I wasn’t sure how impactful the messages would be—but with time, I realized how useful and life-changing they really were. Kalila has a gift for bringing clarity and perspective in a way that stays with you long after the session.
