Tuning Into Your Physical, Mental, and Spiritual Needs
Professionally & personally speaking
Journeying for decades to deepen and strengthen what you experience at TheSoul.Center…
professionally I’m Karoline Kirchner, trained sacred listener and spiritual caregiver.
Personally, I’m not overly professional and please call me Karrie. I’m a wife to an amazing husband and mom of two beautiful and courageous daughters (+ 2 cats, 2 dogs, and one adopted chicken). When I'm not nurturing souls, you might find me tending one of our family's gardens or writing with a fountain pen.
A graduate of Connecticut College, I double-majored in International Relations & Gender and Women Studies and Human Rights. My undergrad studies gave me an empathetic understanding of larger humankind issues. It also motivated me to help where I can make the most impact—on an individual level, working to enliven and invigorate at soul-level.
Professionally, I’ve completed Clinical Pastoral Education and served as a Chaplain at Saint Francis Hospital in Hartford Connecticut. Personally, I’ve sought ways to deepen my ability to care for people’s spirituality while showing up as myself. I’m peaceful with not fitting inside institutions, I’m as spiritual as I am religious, and you can be both, either, or neither comfortably with me.
I’m a Certified Yoga Instructor, graduate from the Spiritual Life Center Spiritual Companioning Internship, and I’ve earned Levels One and Two Certification in Earth Medicine School with Pixie Lighthorse. Studying yoga began as a personal endeavor, teaching me mental stamina and self-care long before I ever taught others. Earth Medicine School (thank you, Pixie) deepened my connection with earthen wisdom, the art of sacred altars, honoring the seasonal cycles of life, and activating as a spiritual healer.
Professionally speaking, I host a monthly women’s circle and I served as a teaching assistant for the 2020 Spiritual Direction Internship at the Spiritual Life Center. I have hosted Workshops and Retreats at The Genesis Spiritual Life Center and The Wisdom House Retreat Center. Personally, each of these roles and all of the above, individually and collectively, continue to bring me ways to better care for you mentally, physically, and spiritually.
