Laura Wurst, a trauma-informed practitioner, is a psycho-spiritual guide, ceremonial facilitator, and founder of Powerful Healing Arts.
With over 20 years of experience as an educator, social worker, massage therapist, and shaman, her work bridges intuitive practice, depth psychology, and ancient wisdom to support personal transformation with an understanding of the contemporary ailments that afflict those of us living in a fast-paced modern lifestyle.
Laura has Hungarian/Romani Shaman (Taltosism) lineage in her blood. She had long felt an unspoken calling to the healing arts before officially beginning to work in the realm of energy healing in 2009 as a reiki level 3 practitioner, and in 2011 as a Licensed Massage Therapist.
Soon after, guided by the spirit of a great ancestor, she found her way back to her healing roots—now strengthened by the sacred gifts of spiritual healing passed down through her ancestral lineage. She further received training as a Shamanic Healer in the powerful mesa tradition of the Q'ero people of Peru, and has also received Native American wisdom regarding healing the energy body.
Shamanic healing appeals to more than only those deep in their spiritual journeys. Laura has worked with clients that include executives of global companies, licensed medical professionals, urban creatives & professionals, and those who favor alternative healing methodologies in mainstream wellness.
