I resisted becoming a channeler at first, but when I met my guides, it was like coming home. As I witnessed the effectiveness of channeling, and experienced the deep, unconditional love energy inherent in the process, I committed myself wholeheartedly to this work. My clients and I find channeled guidance, flower essences, and oracle cards joyful and transformative. I feel honored to be a bridge between the seen and unseen worlds, for the benefit of all beings.

You can see a few videos of me channeling at the bottom of this page, or go to my Vimeo channel to see more.

Other stuff: I earned my MA in Contemplative Psychotherapy from Naropa University, and am a licensed professional counselor in Oregon (inactive). I closed my counseling practice in 2017 to focus on Minerva Wisdom Arts. I have been using flower essences both personally and professionally since the mid 1980s, and am fully trained as a Bach Foundation Registered Practitioner, through Level 1 Teacher. Also, I have been a Reiki practitioner since the mid 1990s and a Reiki Master in the Usui tradition since 2002.

My guides and I have collaborated on four decks of oracle cards: the BlueStar Oracle Deck, the Sacred Stones Oracle Decks, volumes I & II, and the Flower Oracle Deck, which came out in autumn 2021. For more about the oracle decks, and to play with them using our random card generator, go to the Oracle Card page.

I am a low-key Buddhist. I love music, art, writing, walking, and typewriters, among other things. My writing includes books, articles, blog posts and scraps of things that float around the house. I also enjoy channeling my guides for blog posts and our Oracle Decks. I’m an introvert, but if  you get me on a long walk talking about interesting things, you might not know it. In October 2020 I was diagnosed autistic, which explains a lot. Still processing that information and integrating it into my life. I live in Eugene, Oregon with my wife and our two dogs.

Questions for Ker:
How did you start channeling?

I started having conscious contact with my guides in 1989, as a massage therapist, picking up bits of channeled information about my clients in session. When I checked with the client, they found it accurate and useful. Still, I resisted my guides until my friend and mentor Hazel Courtman channeled them for me. After meeting my guides directly, I relaxed and started working intentionally with them.

My relationship with my guides has grown and changed over the years. I feel deep trust and utter confidence in them, and most of the time I follow their suggestions in my own life (but not always, because I am stubborn, and they aren’t the boss of me!).

What is channeling like for you, as the channeler?

It’s a little bit like a dream state that I can go in and out of at will. I don’t remember much of what has been said during a session, though I may have a general sense of it. Working with a client who is very visually oriented, I get strong visuals during the reading. If they are kinesthetically (body) oriented, I get body sensations. If they are primarily verbal, I get lots of words, although my guides generally use a lot of words anyway. I enjoy the sensation of my guides’ energy flowing through me during readings, and generally feel relaxed afterwards.
