Past Participants Comments
The course opens us to a simple, intuitive approach to therapy that draws on thousands of years of indigenous experience. It offers seemingly simple ways to bring all the talk of therapy, and even the emotional work of somatic therapy, into a co-created physical ceremony with surprising power for the client. The results I’ve had are striking, mysterious, and very healing. John M., Retreat Facilitator and Coach, Port Clyde, Maine
I truly appreciated the opportunity to learn and share practices that expand well-being possibilities for our clients. Monique is knowledgeable and grounded in classic psychotherapy as well as in indigenous ceremonial practices. Her wisdom is a gift and she is a wonderful person to learn from. The combination of didactic, discussion and experiential was just right for me. Lisa T. LMFT, Syracuse, N.Y.

Monique is a wealth of knowledge in Shamanic Psychotherapy! She did a beautiful job in teaching us how to use this with clients and providing opportunities for us to witness what the application would look like in a counseling session. K.B., LMFT
I throughly enjoyed this course and gained a lot of new tools for expanding my abilities to reach deeper healing possibilities with clients. An added bonus was learning how to incorporate these practices for enhancing my own growth and healing. Many thanks to Monique for being such a wonderful guide and teacher. A.B., LMFT
Monique eloquently shared her wisdom and the breadth of her experience in a wonderful training. As a result of her training, I have been able to help some challenging clients of mine to heal in a deeper way. Utilizing technique, intuition and concrete ceremonies, my clients reported a deeper healing experience. Thank you Monique! Beth J, LMSW, PRYT
“Monique’s workshop on Shamanic Psychotherapy was affirming, inspiring, and informative. The approach affirmed the narrative elements and tools I use in my work as an expressive psychotherapist, and, after even just a few sessions, I could already incorporate some of these concepts with my clients. Thank you!” J.F., MFA, MA, LMHC
The Shamanic Psychotherapy Series with Monique provided me with a wealth of information in a hands on and experiential format. I learned how to simply yet intuitively incorporate shamanic work in my therapeutic practice. The class has inspired me to use these practices in my daily life as well. I am so appreciative of the beautiful gifts I received from this experience. B.M., LMFT
Monique has a wealth of wisdom and experience that shows up with her every place. I’ve really enjoyed and learned a lot in the Shamanic Psychotherapy class. Great reading list and good teaching structure. Demonstrations that really bring it home, and show how to make this work in the real world. Monique is very in touch with her students, and makes it a safe that’s also very educational and fun. Mark H., Coach
Thank you Monique for such wonderful teachings, a profoundly nourishing and beautiful experience. Such a welcome holding in this moment and in such a stark contrast to the overwhelming noise of potential online learning experiences, blindly promising to deliver “must have” knowledge from a place of lack. What a truly amazing gift to just be in the knowing. Fiona J. England

Book recommendations on the subject of shamanism are difficult as they are typically written by white people who have studied with traditional shamans and healers. Much of shamanistic practice is typically transmitted through the oral tradition. While it can be helpful to read these accounts, it is vital to learn to listen to yourself and be guided by your intuition.

My Work
“My goal is to help the people I work with become their clear, loving, authentic, creative, fearless Self. To shed the masks acquired for survival from turbulent, arid or hostile environments and to release the projections of who/what others want them to be.”

“I have been a client of Monique Lang’s for about a year. Through my work with Monique I have gained a significant amount of clarity surrounding who I am and what I truly want from life. I don’t believe I could have gotten this far this quickly with another guide. This work we have done has improved my life tremendously. The entire experience has been and continues to be a blessing. Thanks Monique, for everything. “
