The Vestibule Center for Sound Living

I have worked with Valerie Carpenter for two years, and I’m so grateful to have had her support and guidance during this challenging time. Valerie’s magical blend of depth and humor, coupled with her vast training in many modalities (I have worked particularly with shamanic journeying and acutonics), have guided me to the cultivation of inner resources that are indescribable in their beauty. She allies with the most essential part of my being and then gently but powerfully works with the obstacles to the full expression of that essence. Her attunement, sensitivity and intuition are extraordinary, and rather than prepare for a session, my task is to show up, be fully present, and trust that whatever needs to arise, will. I can honestly say that I am a more courageous and happy person as a result of the years with Valerie.

I was looking for a touchstone and anchor to deepen my practice of fully showing up for this experience of being human, and I found these in my work with Valerie. If this speaks to you, I wholeheartedly endorse and recommend her!

You will be so lucky to work with Valerie. She is a truly gifted, rare, and multi-dimensional healer with an array of ways to meet your needs and she is so, well, "tuned in". There is a wide bandwidth where you can be met. Starting with deep physical relaxation and stress relief, to better sleep, she can facilitate resolution of longstanding traumas, release old patterns or relational issues, and contribute to improved health on every level. She is a visionary too, in surprising ways. Her work with the tuning forks is like having acupuncture in a pleasurable way and the journeying work is amazing. She also creates a soundscape around you that is so wonderful. I have to say, the power of sound in healing has been a revelation for me. And these skills are all woven in seamlessly. You can just relax and/or go into deep transformative spaces with Valerie's support and guidance. I signed up for the "humming along" program once a month, and am truly grateful for the ongoing support. I referred several friends, who also love their sessions. The space itself, in a garden, is lovely, magical, and nurturing. Valerie can also facilitate effective healing online! That surprised me too and its been so helpful during the last year. Highly recommended, its like having acupuncture, therapy, healing, and a bodyworker all wrapped in one!
