Hello! I'm Katherine Saviskas. I'm a Holistic Spiritual Counselor, specializing in spiritual transformations and physical supports. Everything I offer and how I show up comes from my roots in meditation, yoga, Ayurveda (the traditional medicine of India), racial justice, as well as my ancestral roots in Lithuania and France, my childhood in New York City and its suburbs, and 13 years of living and dancing in the Bay Area.
As a Holistic Spiritual Counselor and as a teacher, I love wading into the depths with you. I'm here to be with you in your unknowns, your big questions, your new experiences, and to explore mysterious terrains with you. #leoscorpiovibes ✌️ I believe that living well includes showing up and being present enough to see what's wanting to happen in our lives and engaging in an ongoing conversation with the universe. As a Holistic Spiritual Counselor, I honor and support your mental health, physical body, spiritual longings and practices, cultural identity, as well as your emotions. I believe that we are not our feelings or our thoughts, and the stories we tell ourselves are powerful. I'm here to support you with a-ha moments and physical and mental tools for big life changes and crises. I'm also here to create communal support as you dive deep, including into your ancestral cultures, who you are, and how to live well. Values I have that ground my professional offerings: 1. Client and student leadership is important. I support my clients and students in stepping into their leadership and trusting themselves to lead. 2. Community is powerful and necessary for health, healing, growing, and living through crises and processing them. I help clients and students build and deepen their community through the sessions and groups I facilitate, as well as beyond them. 3. Cultural identity matters. Developing new layers and sometimes shedding layers of our own cultural identities can open doors to our health, healing, happiness, growth, and existential peace. This can support racial justice and dismantling systemic racism. 4. Our bodies matter. Our bodies are involved in all the spiritual, psychological, and ancestral work we do. Our bodies offer helpful clues. Our bodies need our attention and love. 5. Cultivating and nourishing relationships with the land helps. Connecting to the earth, the land, and the neighborhoods we live in adds meaning and satisfaction to our lives. 6. Learning to show up and be present is essential to feeling alive, growing, and experiencing a satisfying life. 7. Learning to listen to what is wanting to happen in our life and releasing our own agendas helps us feel alive, grow, and experience a satisfying life. Looking forward to together bringing new supports into your life! Katherine |
