About
Greetings ~ My name is Jett Koda (she/they), MSW, CSWA
I currently live in Portland, Oregon on the traditional village sites of the
Multnomah, Wasco, Bands of Chinook and many other tribes who made their homes along the Columbia River. My recent ancestors are from Hungary and New Hampshire (traditional ancestral homeland of the Abenaki, Pennacook and Wabanaki people) and more distant ancestors from Quebec, France and England.
I am an author, parent, energy healer, Reiki teacher & practitioner,
Tarot reader & counselor, artist, hospice social worker and poet.
I am a trained social worker and currently work as a medical social worker with Care Partners Hospice & Palliative Care. I hold a Masters in Social Work and use a social justice and trauma informed lens to better understand my clients and their needs and healing intentions. I am consistently training in anti-racism and decolonization .
My therapeutic approach includes the following evidence-based practices: Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Reflective Listening and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I rely on practices that include family systems theory, narrative therapy, attachment style theory and mindfulness.
I have been working the arts of energy healing, divination, ceremony, and soul support for almost two and a half decades. I have been clairvoyant since childhood and continuously received messages from the unseen world as well as my ancestors.
The clarity and inspiration to enter this journey as a healer began after I experienced cancer at age 19 when I first faced the 'mortality reality.' I began training with my first teachers in Reiki, animism, Tarot and the wheel of the year.
Since then, I had the incredible blessing to live in India for 7 years and on the Big Island of Hawai'i for 6 years where I received many teachings on meditation, spirituality, healing and forgiveness, land offerings and ceremonial work. This work comes from both my direct experiences with spirit and ancestors as well as the grace of indigenous community members, spiritual teachers and traditional lineages.
I am a student and practitioner of all that is death and dying: grief work, trauma, loss (cultural, personal, familial), intergenerational healing, and ancestral work. My wish to work more deeply with death and dying deepened after losing my first baby daughter only five days after her birth. Not only actual death, but all transitions are my most beloved work including spiritual initiations, gender transitions, relation~shifts and letting go ceremonial work.
I am on a community and collective oriented path that values continuous listening, learning, collaborating and connecting. I am the treasurer for the PNW Council of Water Protectors, as an ally to our native folks and friend to the earth and her waters.
I am profoundly grateful to my many teachers, particularly Kahuna Ali'i Kumu Ehulani Stephany, H.H. Ogyen Trinley Dorje 17th Karmapa, H.E. Tai Situ Rinpoche, Rowan Wilson and Rubybleu Puja.
In addition to my human teachers, I work with guides including the Arcturians, inter-dimensional light beings who offers assistance in healing our water body and activating our light body. I was contacted directly by an Arcturian emissary in 2018. Since then, the Arcturians and other star family collectives are an integral aspect of my healing work.
I offer some discounts & trades to BIPOC and LGTBQ+ community, please inquire! Five percent of my profit goes to support reparations for communities of color. As a queer person, I have a special affinity for working with folx in the LGTBQ+ community around spiritual matters, emotional support and ceremonial healing.
I look forward to connecting and discovering the healing journey with you!
