Hi! It’s nice to see you here. I’m Em, and I am many things. I am a musician, singer-songwriter, poet, spiritual companion and leader, and teacher. I am a student cantor/hazzan and am excited to bring more connection through song and prayer into this world. I believe healing is possible when we come back to ourselves, to God, and to each other, through art, with nature, with community.

With a framework of disability justice and the commitment to a liberated future for all, my offerings are also informed by my own spiritual lineage, in ways that are rooted in Jewish principles of time, cycles, song, mysticism and relationship tending to the more than human world.

I offer spiritual accompaniment to anyone in need of guidance in deepening their relationship to a higher power and bring my experiences as a spiritual leader, ritualist, herbalist, songwriter, teacher and community organizer to the work of spiritual care. I also offer spiritual vocal coaching as an alternative way to connect to the voice and strengthening instrument.

I find myself turning to spiritual care because it brings me great joy to witness people on this spiritual path of re-membering, grieving and wrestling with All That Is. Spiritual care is the act of being present, of getting in touch with our creativity and most authentic selves.

It is an honor to hold space for others who especially care about collective liberation and how we may show up in this moment. I love working with people who live in the margins, people who, for one reason or another, have been made to feel unwelcome in their spiritual communities at some point in their lives.

It is so good to be in this 🕸️ web 🕸️ with you.
