What it’s like to sit with Lindsay

Heartfelt reflections from people Lindsay has had the honor of working with over the years.

Straight from the people

What it’s been like, in their words

Straight from their hearts, shared word for word.

There are very few women in this world that carry a certain type of energy that is a balm that soothes your soul. Lindsay is one of them. I can easily say she is one of the rarest gems out there, and truly see's you in your brightest light, regardless of the journey you are on. I am infinitely grateful for the connection I have with her, and will hold it close to my heart as a glowing ember keeping me warm in times of fragility ❤️

I’ve worked with Lindsay for over 9 months. Gratitude does not fully capture the totality of my feeling for her. From the first day of our container I felt welcomed and held, all parts of me. It’s been a deep experience beyond anything I had engaged in prior to “do the work”. Because the work wasn’t geared towards fixing. It has been towards welcoming and remembering. Every ceremony space is carefully crafted and tailored to what needs are surfacing. We have ventured beyond just words to the realms of song and spirit. We have touched on soul and ancestors and the mystical. The current period of life transition and transformation I’m traversing has not been easy. I know having Lindsay as my partner and witness in this chapter has been worth the investment without question.

Lindsay James is the real thing. She is equally at home with her hands in the earth as she is sitting with someone in the fire of their becoming, and she brings that same grounded presence to both. She listens in a way that makes you feel genuinely met, not managed or fixed, and her wisdom has been earned in the terrain of real life, real grief, real transformation. She has supported me through some of the most meaningful chapters of my own growth, and what has stayed with me is not just her insight but her consistency. If you are standing at a threshold and need someone who can walk with you into the unknown without flinching, Lindsay James is that guide. Todd Cover, Transformational Coach | Bend, Oregon

Being a co-facilitator comrade, i get to see how she guards and electrifies a space; it is unique. She makes people feel safe and allows folks to be vulnerable. She invites people to embody a new spirit without shame. She transmits a calm, grounded peace, that sets the scene for expansion. She can elicit creativity that folks have never shared! She is a collector of souls and makes all feel welcome and important. She shares openly and humbly. She is a strong and confident voice and embodies both feminine and masculine forces gracefully. When she walks in a room, people notice. I feel lucky to watch her and know her and work with her in this world.

Sometimes people enter your life bearing gifts you didn’t even know you were ready to receive. Sometimes you can feel something inside you shifting, that quiet knowing that you’re ready to evolve, that you’ve outgrown the life you’ve been living. But, being human, you need someone to gently guide you through the threshold. That’s how I crossed paths with Linds. I was scheduled to attend a group ceremony with her. When everyone else unexpectedly became ill, the ceremony was understandably canceled, and I accepted that. Then Linds reached out and said she still wanted to honor the time we had set aside. She didn’t have to do that. I didn’t think I needed her to. But I did. Somehow, she seemed to know what I couldn’t yet see, that my soul needed that space. Our time together became a pivotal moment in my healing journey. She met me with a presence that felt both deeply attentive and profoundly safe, caring for my heart with the tenderness of someone who had known me for years. That same care is how I’ve continued to witness her show up for others: thoughtful with her words, intuitive in her presence, and deeply respectful of the vulnerability people entrust to her. The integration that followed was just as intentional as the ceremony itself, and I have felt held by her ever since. Years later, that integration has quietly grown into a friendship—one that doesn’t depend on plans or proximity, but simply exists in a timeless connection. Lindsay is a rare kind of light. And anyone fortunate enough to find themselves in her presence will understand exactly what I mean 🤍

I have had the honor and privilege of sharing in ceremony with Miss Lindsay James on several occasions now. One of the things that strikes me about Lindsay is her ability to create a safe place in which to explore deeper. From the moment that I met her I knew that I was held in a sacred way and was in a state of deep trust and respect for the way that she carries herself and the medicine that she holds. Lindsay is such a gift in my life, a spark of joy and humor, a touch of inspiration, and a dash of wake the f*#*k up. I'm grateful for her openness and for using her intuition to help guide my journeys in a deeper way and for opening up things for me in ways that I hadn't experienced before. I'm so grateful that our paths have crossed and I am thankful for all of the wisdom that you've shared, and continue to share, and I love that you have so many more offerings on the way! We need more of you. Thank you for being the authentic beauty you are!

Lindsay is the real deal. She's one of the few people I trust completely to stand beside in ceremony because I know she'll meet whatever shows up with wisdom, presence, and integrity. She has an incredible ability to see what's happening beneath the surface, offer honest perspective, and somehow help you find your own answers without ever telling you what to do. She's raw, real, deeply intuitive, and profoundly connected to the Earth. Whether she's holding ceremony, mentoring, or simply being a friend, she brings a level of depth that's hard to put into words. Working alongside her is effortless because she knows how to read the energy, honor it, and gently guide it in a way that feels natural and transformative. I recommend Lindsay wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a guide, mentor, or someone who can truly hold space for deep, meaningful work.

The love and respect I have for this woman knows no bounds. She brings her authentic self and embodied presence to every moment. Her wisdom is shared from the schooling of her own lived experience and she guides from the truest space, navigating this great ceremony of life. It's an honor to be walking this Earth with this wonderful sister by my side.

I sought Lindsay out during a particularly challenging time in my life which was plagued with insomnia after a traumatic incident. The energy/entity work she did with me was beyond anything I’ve ever received from another healer. We went deep; into realms I’d never been to before. She cleared layers that were unseen to the regular eye, but felt by her. She cleared chakras, my aura & entities that were lingering in my field, draining my energy. The literal magic that occurred that day was beyond me. Lindsay is wise beyond this realm, intuitive in ways I’ve never experienced & all the while has such a gentle/compassionate heart when you’re in her presence.

There is truly no one like Lindsay. She is an absolutely beautiful ceremonialist who holds exquisite space. There are many in these spaces, but few who have the heart, the depth, the wisdom, and the care of Lindsay. I have had the honor of co-facilitating with Lindsay, and to witness her detailed care with each client, her generosity of spirit, and her amazing gifts of both word and gentle guidance and space holding are a beauty to witness. I cannot recommend Lindsay highly enough for her ability to navigate safe spaces for her clients, no matter their journey. Cheryl M.

Lindsay is a magnetic powerhouse of a Woman who *captivates* me every time I sit in circle or ceremony with her. Before I knew her personally, I knew her professionally. Lindsay was recommended to me to facilitate a sacred journey with my husband. It was our first time sitting in ceremony, and I’ll never forget the strong steady space Lindsay held for us as we dove into the depths. She offered us council before and after our journey, and during the ceremony she held us in prayer — with song, drumming, and gentle touch when needed. After, my husband and I continued to work with Lindsay via couples’ counseling. Lindsay helped us explore our relational dynamics and we began a process of honest conversation and truth-telling that has continued (and grown) to this day. We are now 21 years into our marriage and happier than ever. I attribute Lindsay’s work with my husband and me to the beginning of our path to betterment — both individually, and as a couple. ❤️ Forever grateful.

Lindsay James is an amazing ceremonialist, guide, woman, and template for healing. I've had the good fortune to be both a friend of hers and the recipient of her ceremonies. And the space that she holds and the depth that she can travel with others, whether they're her friends or her clients, is incredible and impeccable. As a therapist myself, I am very picky about who I refer to, and I always feel good about referring clients and couples to her for her deep and powerful presence and the container that she holds with and for others. And there's not very many people that I trust to hold me when I am in ceremony and in medicine work, and Lindsay is one of the few people that I trust to not only hold people that I refer to her, but myself. I have a ton of gratitude for her and for what she brings to the world. She is honest, passionate, and fearless when it comes to being a stand for the people in her life, and for the Earth. She is blessing and clear channel for beauty and healing. I hope you also get to receive from her bounty as well! Kris Prochaska, MA, LPC

When I met Lindsay the very first time, I knew there was something very special about her. Immediately her spirit came through… gentle, loving, intuitive and kind. I’ve been lucky enough to have been in multiple ceremonial spaces with her and she handles ceremony with such loving grace, compassion, wisdom AND HUMOR - (thank god!). She reminds me, too, that life itself is a ceremony. Every moment is precious. And she brings such hope and groundedness to a very challenging time collectively. I’m so grateful to know her!! Her heart lives big and bright and she walks the walk with absolute integrity. 💖

Lindsay has a remarkable gift for creating spaces where people can slow down, reconnect, and heal. Through her sound healing, prayer, and presence, she helps people find a sense of peace and transformation. She is a natural leader with a genuine heart, and everyone who has the privilege of knowing her is better for it.
