About Jennifer Sprague

Somewhere in the last 15 years, I realized that I wanted to pursue a career where I could work with people in a way that would use all the skills I have acquired over my life, and continually challenge me to learn and grow. Since then, I have studied Gestalt Therapy, Relational Psychotherapy, acquired an undergrad degree in Psychology through Trent University, a Diploma in Expressive Arts through Fleming College and done many specialty training courses in trauma, phobias, anxiety and relationship issues. Currently I am working towards a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at the Santa Barbara Graduate Institute with a specialty in Somatic psychology and trauma.

In addition to traditional academic training, I have also pursued a parallel interest in spiritual growth. Over the past 30 years I have practiced Tibetan Buddhism, yoga and meditation. I have studied Shamanic healing with Bernie Morin, Reiki Master, and Vipassana Meditation with Jason Siff.  I am now a Reiki Master in the Usui Lineage and have been teaching Mindfulness Meditation for several years.

Recently, I have been certified as a Master Coach and have begun offering Life Coaching sessions as a service to clients who are interested in manifesting greater success and abundance in their lives.

As a workshop leader, I facilitate small groups in transpersonal development and personal growth, as well as occasional weekend and multi-day retreats. Information is usually available through this site or by e-mail contact. I am also a practicing Reiki Master offering initiations, trainings and treatments as requested.
