About

Teagan West (she/they)

Hello Beautiful Being. Grateful you’ve found me here.

I’m Teagan (pronounced Tae-gan), a lover of depth with a passion for healing. I am currently based in Upstate NY, located upon the unceded territory of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. My own ancestors come from predominantly Irish and Levantine origins. Personally, I identify as a Ceremonialist & Ritualist, Dancer, Artist, Metalsmith & Drum Maker.

I have spent over a decade studying various ancient & esoteric healing systems, seeking to uncover the thread that weaves them all together. By trade, I’m an Ayurvedic Practitioner, Ritual Astrologer, Somatic Practitioner, Energy Healer & Subtle Bodyworker. I’m a lifelong student of Ancestral Lineage Work, paired with Death & Grief care as an End-of-Life Doula, and have recently completed my studies as a Somatic Psychedelic Facilitator.

It may seem like I do a lot of different things, but truly all of the modalities I practice weave together in SUCH a deep, beautiful way. They are all interconnected, just as we are. I have a deep passion for healing on every level of mind-body-spirit, as we truly cannot leave anything out of the holistic nature of our being. I believe personal healing is inevitably tied to collective care, which for me includes creating community spaces to explore our own healing processes in the presence of other like-minded kin.

In regards to ceremonial practice, my path has been informed by gracious teachers from various lineages that I have had the privilege to study under. Namely, Native North American practices of Anishinaabe Ojibwe Lineage, and Mayan traditions of South American Lineage. These teachings deeply inform my own healing philosophies, while I continue to explore traditional Celtic & Middle Eastern practices of my own lineages.

My own path of healing has led me here, to developing a practice & overall life path of deepening exploration into the healing arts. I recognize there is no arrival on this journey; there is always more to learn. I am an eternal student, and this work is my teacher.

TESTIMONIALS

  • Teagan is an incredibly present and talented healer with a vast archive of wisdom to share. It is apparent that her work is rooted in both tender devotional experience - and a clear commitment to scholarship in her fields of study. She made reiki so approachable for me when I was new to the experience, and has continued to open my eyes to what good medicine can look and feel like outside of a western approach. I highly recommend her frequently to friends, family, and clientele in my own business. Very grateful for my continued experiences working with Teagan and always looking forward to learning more from her!

  • From the moment I walked through the door I felt held, safe and understood on a deep spiritual level with Teagan. She truly has a gift to connect, heal and hold space. Her insights and energy work were exactly what I needed to experience and hear. I look forward to many more sessions and deep healing to continue to work through past blockages within my body and mind. She brings mind body spirit together and truly stays present while in this space together. Her work is divine !

  • Beautiful, safe space, hosted by a beautiful and safe human being. I've been seeing Teagan for a couple of years now and my experience has been transendent. Each time I feel closer to my path and myself, while also feeling aligined and focused. After each session I am renewed. Teagan is responsive, an amazing listener, and pulls forth your deepest power.

  • So blessed to have met Teagan on my path. For multitude of reasons. Teagan is a true healer, a sacred space holder, and a powerful spirit channel…And this is coming from a ration-driven skeptic like me: if you truly want to heal and get better, just give yourself a chance and contact Teagan, and trust the healing process. My health (both physical and mental), and my life have definitely been healed, transformed, and improved by Teagan and her skilful healing practices. Much honour and gratitude!
