Ocean Alchemy; like returning to the land | Tuning into your essence, grounded & nourished to be reborn.
Welcome! I’m Rachel
Ocean Alchemy is inspired by my deep connection with the Ocean. Creating a life around the coast and surfing defined my twenties and love of nature led me to move and settle into the Cape Breton Highlands. Living on the Island has deepened my relationship to myself and the natural environment. I believe that nurturing and cultivating a relationship with the subtle and elemental realms is one the most healing for individuals, communities, and the planet as a whole.
It is common that those who are deeply connected to the Ocean and Earth find me. I’m here for the heart-aligned path and deeper harmonics of dharma and legacy. If that feels like you, Hi! I’d love to meet you.
I have the honour of being able to offer my unique style of mentorship and witness deep transformation in my clients. I am devoted to the artistry of diving deep, alchemy and as a guide and guardian of Her waters. Knowing that the water ways within and without are a beacon for healing, hope and erotic potential to birth anew. Which make it possible to experience in current time, external expressions of these internal shifts through healing, spiritual repair, environmental restoration, soul aligned business, nourishing relationships and enlivened creativity.
My approach to service is a combination of deep intuitive listening and responding, somatic and energetic healing practices, practical tools, and highly personalized support. It has been my experience that combining the deeper energetic shifts with mentorship is a perfect blend of support.

“I started working with Rachel in early 2020 when I was finishing my PhD, and moving back home to Nova Scotia. It was a huge transition period and I knew that I needed guidance for the deep healing and transformations necessary..
In our first call, I knew that the work I would do with her would bring me back to myself in a profound way. Then the pandemic hit and my life and career trajectory changed even more. She supported me through some major transitions, helped me identify and heal deep wounds and blockages, held space for me and guided me as I moved through the final stages of my schooling and into entrepreneurship. Through my work with Rachel, I have gained an inner peace and clarity of vision, and have become more aware of and in-tune with myself, my needs and gifts, and the space I hold in the world. I have been able to continue building my career in Marine science and conservation while also building a business, Ocean Minded, through which I am sharing my knowledge, passion, and a deeper connection to the Ocean with others. With Rachel’s guidance, all these shifts and all this growth has happened from a place in my heart and core, connected to my purpose in a way that feels unquestionable. With our common connection with and passion for the Ocean, Rachel and I will continue to work together and I am so excited for what is to come! “

“Listen, real poetry doesn’t say anything, it just ticks off the possibilities. Opens all doors. You can walk through any one that suits you.”

“Rachel has shown me time and time again how her tender, natural approach to energetic healing and alignment can so gracefully shift my big, monumental internal blocks with ease.“
With each session we shared, I felt so much lighter and able to access my own stability. She has a way of communicating what truly requires attention in the moment in a way that is concise and openly accepting. My sessions with her have allowed me to move through massive life changes with much more confidence and grace than I ever imagined I could. I am exceptionally grateful for her guidance and healing work to come back into my true and powerful state of being. “
