Sandra Ingerman: Shamanism and Mental Health

Sandra Ingerman: Shamanism and Mental Health

Sandra Ingerman, MA, had a spiritual awakening as a child and has experienced three near death experiences. At seven she was struck by lightning, as a teen in Mexico she had to be revived after nearly drowning in the ocean and in her 20s she accidently drove her car off a cliff. Through her own healing journey, she found the importance of connecting to her creativity and nature, and finding meaning, passion and purpose in life.

Sandra is now a licensed marriage and family therapist, mental health counselor and a board-certified expert on traumatic stress. As a world-renowned teacher of shamanism, she has been teaching workshops internationally on shamanic journeying and healing for over 30 years. Sandra is recognized for bringing traditional healing methods to our Western culture and is passionate about helping people reconnect with nature. She has helped thousands of people heal from past and present traumas through the shamanic healing method of Soul Retrieval. We met with Sandra for this interview at her home in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
