Soul-Led Support for your Human Adventures
I’m Jaime.
I’m more Midwife, Initiator, Catalyst, Threshold Guide … than Coach or Teacher
As a Threshold Doula — I companion people through initiations, guiding them to metabolize psychic and soul-level activations
As a Psychospiritual Sherpa — I help others walk terrain I’ve walked before, terrain I know in an intimate, embodied way.
I can sense what’s off before anyone else can articulate it.
I am a keen seer and tracker of psychic terrain.
I am a natural catalyst for other’s awakening and evolution.
I am an intuitive channel that receives messages from beyond the seen world.
I’ve fine tuned my emotional and energetic intelligences toward mastery.
I hold space for the full range and gritty glory of inner work.
I’ve been a wisdom keeper, oracle, sound channel, and Earth guardian for ages.
I’m an HSP, empath and complex trauma survivor.
If you’re standing at the edge of something and need skilled, relational companionship, you’re welcome here.
“Working with Jaime was a dream come true. She is that perfect mix of a medicine woman who embodies the wisdom of an elder, the compassion of someone walking a path alongside you, and the sweet innocence of a child with a wide open heart. She sources her medicine from a place beyond time, but makes it accessible.”
VALUES, PRINCIPLES AND ORIENTATIONS
All of my clients are whole, sovereign, and fully empowered. My work is built upon models of Wholeness, not brokenness, disease, or deficit. Clients retain full agency and power throughout our work, which is co-creative and co-guided. All information and offerings are to be filtered through your own soul resonance/soul knowing.
In this work, we hold great reverence for Great Mystery. Sometimes we are asked to hold questions, rather than receive quick-and-easy answers to our deepest soul stirrings. We trust the organic blossoming of our soul journey. Our work is held in the spirit of curiosity and trust.
I do not have the answers you seek; they dwell in nature, your soul, and in Spirit. I am here to help you discover them in these sources.
“Questions are the keys that cause the secret doors of the psyche to swing open.” —Clarissa Pinkola Estes
All healing is self-healing, and can also be deeply relational. We are inter-dependent beings that benefit from connection, collaboration, and support in a “power-with” dynamic of allyship with Sacred Others, including guides, mentors, kin, and the Other-than-Human worlds.
My work is animistic in nature, which means I see the whole world (both seen and unseen realms) as deeply relational. My work is founded on the idea that Earth and the Celestial Realms are filled with other-than-humans with which we can be in conversation and collaboration, intimacy and advocacy, and more. These inter-relationships are sources of healing and whole-ing.
I support alternative epistemologies, or ways of knowing that include but go beyond the mind/Thinking. These include intuitive knowing, body/sense-based knowing, knowing through imagery, feelings-based knowing, soul knowing, spirit knowing, and more.
Embodied, experiential practices are often the most potent paths to healing. Imagery and emotion are the languages of the Soul. While we may use the mind to enter + support these practices, they dwell at the heart of our work.
“Experience is the most valuable currency at a soul’s disposal.” —Hathor
Ten fun things to know about me
I am deeply rooted in humility. I am grounded, practical and organized AND a mystic, magical medicine woman.
Stiff dogma makes me run the other direction. Hierarchies make me squirm. Spiritual bypassing makes me nauseous.
I am in sweet, sweet love with nature. When I’m not working, I’m in the woods.
I sing all the time because it makes my heart happy.
I LOVE to travel. Like obsessed.
I have an insatiable appetite for books and herbal tea.
I am a double Sagittarius (truth-seeking explorer) with a super dose of Libra (conscious equal relating) in this lifetime. Good doses of Virgo and Scorpio too.
I am a California native (Lord, bring me a taco, a beach + a hot, sunny day), live in Asheville, North Carolina, and dream of moving to the rainforest.
I am a single mama to an absolutely delightful earth angel daughter. To be her mother brings me the deepest joy.
In my other equally-sacred work, I help creatives and healers write and edit books (JaimeFleres.com). I used to be a college writing professor.
“Jaime’s ability to show up fully, authentically and consistently is breathtaking. She is one of the most self aware humans that I have ever encountered and she lives her life from deep inside her heart, which is such a breath of fresh air to be around. Time and time again, I have witnessed Jaime draw groups together and create depth and meaning. She is a powerhouse. ”

“The extent to which Jaime embodies herself, and her own divinity, is one of the most authentic I’ve ever seen. In each avenue of her sacred work I have witnessed her embody the highest level of commitment, professionalism, clear articulation, dedication, and doing whatever it takes to hold impeccably sacred space for her clients. She has one of the bravest, most generous hearts I know. Jaime is grounded, but also full of fiery inspiration and motivational energy.”
