A cross cultural, colaborative approach combining indigenous and modern medical methods for transformative, whole-person care.
At Sovereign Healers, we believe that physical, mental/emotional challenges are interconnected and must be addressed at each level individually and collectively.
Free the Mind
Revitalize the Body
Connect to Spirit in Peace and Joy
By integrating modern, natural, and indigenous healing modalities, with a unique process and expert practitioners, we aim to facilitate transformational breakthroughs.
Sovereign Healers is an autonomous network of Sanctified Healers and Licensed Practitioners (collectively “Facilitators”) who team together and collaborate, to assist with your whole-person transformation.
Our master-level Sanctified Healers are of various indigenous backgrounds from around the world, practicing their traditional healing arts for an average of 20+ years. They team with Licensed Practitioners to ensure you have a whole-person care team focused on your physical, mental/emotional and spiritual needs.
Our Sanctified Healers tailor and personalize your retreat based on a comprehensive Transformation Plan that is created with the support of our onboarding specialists prior to the retreat.
Your personalized Transformation Plan will include obstacles to overcome, goals to be achieved, and the prayers and self-care processes you will need to achieve victory.

Improved relationships both internal and external

What makes Sovereign Healers different than other healing treatment programs?
In recent years, Traditional Healing methods have been culturally appropriated and inaccurately applied in Western culture. The positive side of this is there is an increased awareness of indigenous healing methods, but there are also several downsides:
Less experienced people with little to no traditional training are leading healing ceremonies, sometimes with as little as 1-2 years of experience. In a more traditional setting, one will reach the level of medicine man or medicine woman after 15-30 years of training and practice.
The number of participants attending a transformational retreat can range from 15-30 people with only 1-2 facilitators available to support the group. This represents a 15 to 1 participant to facilitator ratio. Even if the facilitator is skilled, gifted or experienced, this makes it difficult, if not impossible to focus and give the necessary attention each participant needs to really tackle their issues. In a more traditional setting, there are no more than 3 participants to 1 facilitator and sometimes there may be 3 facilitators to 1 participant.
The preparation time participants receive before attending retreats is very little-to-none, so neither the facilitator nor the participant knows what obstacles to target or goals to focus on. Consequently, many participants leave with more questions than answers, as their specific challenges are not adequately addressed.
What we provide:
A team of Sanctified Healers and Licensed Practitioners with a combined minimum of 45 years of experience at each retreat
Our more senior level experienced facilitators range in years of experience from 15-50 years. Our journeyperson level facilitator’s range in years of experience from 8-14 years. Our apprentice level facilitators range in years of experience from 1-7 years.
A maximum of 3 participants to 1 facilitator in group ceremonies with most time focused on 1 to 1 participant to facilitator activities.
A Customized Transformation Plan specifically tuned to the participant’s needs.
The plan includes obstacles to overcome, goals to be achieved, and the prayers and self-care processes you will need to achieve victory.
Integration support after the retreat with linking back to the Customized Transformation Plan to assess progress and prioritize self-development goals post retreat.
