Attendees Experiences

“I thought I had studied a lot about dysfunctions — but Megan’s integrated spiritual & psychological approach gave me insights to recognize childhood situations and beliefs that I didn’t have a clue about before. I really liked that she provided tools to get at the core of things and achieve deep healing both for myself and people wanting my assistance. I can’t imagine anyone taking the course and not having significant “light bulb” moments!”  Kathie McClellan

“I so enjoyed the Spiritual Psychology certification and feel especially fortunate to have been the recipient of Megan’s knowledge. Her weaving together of Depth Psychology, Alchemy, and the Kabbalah is so unique and makes such perfect sense. I love how her philosophy is both left and right brained – how it holds a place for both Mystery and Logos. Megan and the people she touches are truly Blessed!” Rev. Pamela Hirsch

“We dove right into the intricacies of understanding ego, soul and spiritual development. We focused on how to assess clients’ needs and nurture their growth and transformation. We ate fabulously well, laughed with gusto, and pooled our experiences in a rich stew of learning.”     Rev. Jean Weiss
