Jessica Riphenburg

Jessica Riphenburg is a Shamanic Practitioner and founder of Be The Light Shamanic Healing, where she offers group and one-on-one work. She revels in facilitating uplifting and safe environments for participants to find inner peace, transformation, and soul aligned community through empowering experiences that center emotional, spiritual & energetic healing. Her mission is to help all that join her circle to connect more deeply with their personal spiritual nature while respecting cultural boundaries and walking lightly on our Mother Earth.

Born into a family of natural intuitives, mediums and clairvoyants, brushes with the spirit world have always been a normal part of life for her and her family. In her late teens, supernatural occurrences and health issues intensified in ways that are typically known as “The Call” to step into the role of Healer. However, while her family had retained their lineage’s natural gifts, the wisdom of their ancestors had been stripped away in previous generations, and without that framework, those experiences were pathologized for years before she found spiritual mentors that understood. Jessica has since received training in both Core & Peruvian shamanism, and has been walking the shamanic path since 2011.
