Maria Gaian  – Therapeutic Witchcraft Practioner. 

I combine modern neuroscience based coaching and therapy techniques with a generous sprinkle of Gaian Magick™ to help people ditch the black dog and unleash their passion for life. 

What if I told you that I help my clients to ditch the black dog of depression using tools such as:-

🃏 tarot cards;

✨ crystals;

🧴 essential oils & flower essences;

🌙 moon rituals; and

✨soul journeying and mind rewilding

in my coaching and therapy sessions?

Would you laugh and call me foolish, or would you be curious?

I’ve got to be honest, I do worry that the metaphysical tools I use to help people ditch the black dog of depression might seem too ‘woo woo’ to be taken seriously!

You might be ok with me using hypnotherapy and horse-assisted therapy to help you heal, but tarot cards, ceremonies and rituals might be a step too far.

It’s ok.

I understand if you feel cynical about the idea that the metaphysical part of my work could help you feel better.

But what if it’s not as silly as it seems?

How can rituals, ceremonies and spells possibly help you ditch the black dog?

Before you dismiss me as a weird old crone, you need to know that rituals and soul healing journeys have helped me and my clients overcome things that contribute to, or are caused by, depression.

Such as:-

😔 low self-esteem;

😢 lack of confidence;

😔 loneliness and feeling disconnected;

😢 healing emotional and psychological wounds caused by abuse, rejection, abandonment, loss, grief, heartbreak and failure;

😔 symptoms of cPTSD.

😢 anxiety and social anxiety;

😔 insomnia;

😢 imposter syndrome;

😔 feelings of not being enough;

😢 beliefs that love, happiness, money, or success aren’t available to them;

Does that seem too good to be true?

What if I told you that scientists have proven that rituals, talismans, and spells actually work?

So scientist’s agree that rituals, ceremonies, spells and talismans work. But what about plant medicine? Animal assisted therapy? Crystal healing and Soul Journeys?

Do they really work?

I use a combination of complementary therapies in my work. 

Their effectiveness is being proven through scientific and empirical evidence.

Call it witchcraft, call it plant medicine, or herbalism, either way, the principles are the same.

(*Unless otherwise specified. Some herbal products are unsafe for children or pregnant people.)

Hypnotherapy has startling similarites to shamanic healing.

People flock to feel the therapeutic benefits of being around horses and nature.

No one thinks twice about using lavender-scented products or drinking chamomile tea to help them relax.

There’s no doubt about it, rituals, soul healing, and magick work.

It may not be magick (although I choose to believe it is.)

But Soul healing works.

Connecting with others and a higher power in Sacred Circles works.

And ‘woo woo’ things such as talismans, rituals, spells, whatever you want to call them, work.

Scientists know it, and my clients and I experience it every day.

Depression, stress, overwhelm, anxiety, and other blocks to our health, wealth, happiness, love, and success can all be massively improved through taking part in powerful healing rituals.

And that can be life-changing.

(A note for my neurodivergent friends: Therapeutic Witchcraft™ and Alchemical Ecotherapy™ will not ‘cure’ autism, ADHD etc. But they can help you let go of the feelings of being somehow broken or defective. You can feel healthier, happier, and whole.)

What I’m trying to say is…..

…don’t be afraid to try something new, even if it seems a bit too ‘woo woo or ‘out there’.

Don’t miss out on getting rid of some of the psychological and emotional blocks to your happiness, just because what I’m offering isn’t as ‘normal’ as popping a pill or visiting a traditional therapist to talk about it.

Isn’t getting involved with witchcraft dangerous?

There’s nothing dark or dangerous here.

My methods are natural, with zero toxic side effects, and are safe* for even children to take part in.

I’ve used the full moon ritual to help a child to get rid of a scary monster that she believed lived under her bed.

The old ways of the witches that used to be considered too ‘woo woo’ are becoming mainstream.

You don’t need to be ‘woo woo’ or to believe in magick or a god to find the metaphysical tools I use helpful.

The belief that you’re letting go of the baggage you’ve been carrying with you is all that matters.

(Although, you might find yourself so moved that you’re drawn to start down a spiritual path, just like I was.)

It could be the start of a whole new way of life for you!
