On Caity's Somatic Bodywork & Counseling Sessions:  

Caity cracked me open like a nut. After searching for my purpose in every nook and cranny it came to me within 5 minutes that my life purpose is love and to be in service. I now ask ‘am I doing this in service in love?’ if the answer is no, then its not the road for me. My life has changed in so many amazing ways. If anyone is thinking of working with Caity to find their life purpose I absolutely advocate that you do

“Working with Caity is such a gift and I am eternally grateful. Our session began with dropping in and talking about the issues/emotions I was feeling, and what I thought I wanted to focus on. The session flowed smoothly based on what I felt I needed most; a deep guided meditation/journey, reiki, art therapy, and on and on. It was completely unique and tailored to what I needed. I hadn’t felt so safe in a long long time, and through that safety and comfort, I was able to process some deeply held emotions and judgements.

Caity uses a whole array of medicinal tools ~ reiki, herbalism, tantra, somatic work, shamanic journeying, etc. to support you in whichever way is best for you. She is incredibly intuitive and put me at ease quickly (so much so that I shared things with her I had never shared with anyone else).

After just one session, I left feeling lighter, more compassionate with myself, more centered, and honestly felt like I had just gotten done with 8 hours of therapy! She created a space of deep healing and support and compassion that stayed with me far beyond the session. I felt seen and held and supported in a way I didn’t know I needed. She is magic.

If you’re considering going to Caity, DO IT!”

One of Caity’s first questions that I will never forget (and will continue to repeat over and over again when I describe my experience in being coached by Caity) was, “What if there was nothing about you to fix?”.

Believe it or not, this simple, direct and powerful question changed my life.

It changed my perception about who I am and the world around me. There is nothing to fix because I am whole as I am. I lived my entire life hoping and working toward fixing myself.

Caity held me accountable for my actions and also my desire to connect to myself and to experience life from my heart.

Her determination and skillful way to instill confidence and self-awareness was smooth. I found Caity’s sense of calmness to be contagious.

She was understanding, supportive and stood up for my goals, even when I refused to move forward.

I highly recommend Caity because working with her changed my life.

“How can I begin to describe what it is like to receive this woman’s medicine when receiving is something I have hardly ever allowed myself?

What is it like to step into Caity’s Temple?

My body became a holy shrine.
My masculine hallowed in devotional tenderness.
The holy sacrament of healing pleasure ministered by a feral priestess of the Feminine Mystery.
An unraveling of shame help for so long in my body and desire.
Dear, long-held in my body melting away in the presence of such sensitive exploration and honoring.

I have been humbled and enlarged by this experience. My masculinity is more magnetic than ever. I am capable of receiving greater pleasure than ever. I am more inspired than ever to plunge deeply into ecstatic worship of my partner’s delight.

Let’s just say this is an exponential, multi-dimensional WIN! I don’t care what you have tried, you’ve never experienced anything like this.””

“Caity is an incredible and gifted healer! She created a safe space and helped me remember many things I had forgotten about myself and my nature. It was a profound experience and major milestone in my journey of self-love and spiritual exploration.

I could not recommend Caity more highly. I hope everyone who is ready for this kind of healing work gets an opportunity to work with someone as powerful and sensitive as Caity!” ”

“Only to the extent that we expose ourselves over and over to annihilation can that which is indestructible in us be found.”
~Pema Chödrön

I’ve loved this quote for so long, but I haven’t found anything indestructible in me. Maybe it’s because I haven’t been exposed to much annihilation? At least that I would let myself face. But I’ve recently been exposed to a good deal of annihilation - both as something big coming to an end, and then looking with clear eyes at what wasn’t there in the past.

Caity’s healing was transformational for me. She helped expel blocks in my heart and reminded me that there is infinite love in my heart even if I don’t feel it.

I then saw Shiva with an unending, undying, infinite love of creation. It was centered in his heart and radiated out to eternity. Shiva was then embodied in me - my heart was his heart, and it was alive with this undying eternal love, radiating out. Shakti was embodied in Caity, as both the source and channel of this life-force energy and the equal and balancing force that enables Shiva’s love to emanate so strongly.

For years it was hard for me to love because I was so depleted. Now I feel like “me” again, and will work to prevent blockages from masking this eternal love from me in the future.

Caity helped me find what is indestructible in me, and it’s big, juicy love!”

“Safe, seen, heard, held. These are some of the words that jump to mind to describe the way in which Caity weaves her magic.

I came to Caity with more questions than answers – seeking counseling and curious about tantric healing work as a path to address issues of sexual intimacy and emotional blockages I was experiencing that were keeping me from fully connecting with myself and my partners in relationship and in the bedroom. The idea of diving into such personal territory with someone new was accompanied by a fair deal of nerves and anxiety but, from the outset, I knew I was in excellent hands with Caity.

Her communication around her work and her process was incredibly clear leading up to our session, and allowed me to dive right in, knowing I was in her trusting care.

In person, Caity effortlessly puts you at ease, with a quiet grace and seriousness of presence that allows for complete relaxation and a clear sense of being seen, heard, and held. Her studio was an oasis, and she cultivates a sacred and sensual space where I felt completely empowered to bare my soul and open up to my raw, vulnerable self.

I am a person who carries his pains and traumas deep in my body, and Caity’s mix of somatic training and tantric ritual touch worked wonders. During our session, we moved gracefully and seamlessly through talk, somatic body work and healing therapeutic touch as Caity gently probed and guided me to open up, relax, and feel into the places in my body where I was feeling stuck – helping me release deep, subconscious bodily and emotional pains buried in my muscle memory.

The healing was palpable! After just one session with Caity, I left feeling more embodied, more connected to my power center and source of my sexual desire, and freed of many of the bodily and emotional blockages that had been holding me back from experiencing deeper intimacy both in my daily life and in the bedroom.

The days following our session have seen me feeling lighter and more connected to life and my sense of purpose than I had before, and I am looking forward to the next time I can schedule time with Caity to go back in to delve even deeper.

I am incredibly grateful to have found her, and would highly recommend that if you’ve been considering seeking this kind of work, that you take the leap and say yes to meeting your higher potential, with Caity as the ultimate soul guide!

Coaching has given me a perspective that I never had before. This perspective has helped me to normalize many of the struggles I’ve been through and still carry with me. Coaching has helped me to realize that I CAN identify what I want, and that I can make a plan to achieve it. It has given me a process for listening to my heart.

Caity is a warm, understanding, and insightful person. She knows how when to give guidance, or to demand more of her client, or to simply offer support and compassion. She has helped me identify what I care about and to develop constructive ways of achieving it. Caity gives complete focus during every call, and she learns who you truly are as your relationship grows.

On Caity's plant medicine work: 

We meet many people in our lifetime but there are few who stand out, because they touch us on a multi-layered level and leave their impressions with us. Caity Flanagan is one of those souls.

I met Caity during my first Hour of Happiness at The Alchemist’s Kitchen. I also attended one of her Practical Herbalism classes, an open roundtable discussion about select herbs and tonics. 

It was clear to me Caity possessed a unique set of qualities that made her great at her work. Firstly, she’s an excellent communicator and owns an authentic love for her craft. Not only does she ask questions to learn about others, but she also openly shares her enthusiasm for the many plants she holds dear. The exuberance makes her light up when she talks about her favorite herbs or crystals, and I’ve observed peers around me receive influence from the energy she gives off; they enjoy their stay and I’ve personally experienced the increase in connection to the plants as she describes their qualities. 

Caity can take a collection of herbs and explain their attributes without hesitation. She also knows how to engage groups when the members do not know each other. Her heart-centered approach keeps the
communication lines open so you leave the space refreshed, with clarity and curious to learn more. 

In this short time I’ve come to know Caity, I recognize she’s a giver who doesn’t hesitate to share resources and knowledge that can add value to the people she meets. 

If you happen to cross paths with Caity, be prepared to have your heart chakra opened and insight into the world of plant spirit medicine uplifted.

On Caity's course, The Wild Calling 

Caity created an a beautiful community of women from across the country and allowed us to create a circle of intimacy and safety. She showed up fully on every call and created amazing journeys and soul work for us. The skills and magic I found within myself throughout these nine months are invaluable!
— - Lindsey, College Admissions Counselor & Poet
The Wild Calling has provided the impetus to carve out time and space to meet with other women who totally get it. We have shared many similar experiences and can empathize with and support one another because of it. It has been such a beautiful experience to be heard, understood, and held no matter what state I had been in at the times of our meetings.
— Sarah, Reiki Master & Nutritional Wellness Coach
I signed up for The Wild Calling thinking it was mainly going to be about herbalism and plant medicine. It was so much more, and I’m so thankful that I was part of it. It gave me the support, structure, and accountability I needed to explore my stories, thoughts, and emotions and to really trust myself again on a deep, core level.
