“It is hard for me to put into words my deep gratitude for the guidance Chi Young has given me on my journey to reconnect with my mother's maternal line. She is a skilled, compassionate, empathic practitioner with a strength that holds and supports the beautiful and complex work of healing our connections to our ancestors. I had begun making a powerful connection to my ancestors, but at a certain point felt like I was trying to put together a jigsaw puzzle with too few pieces. A friend recommended Chi Young as a practitioner to work with. It was the best decision I could've made. With her gentle guidance, I could connect, hear the messages of my ancestors clearly for the first time, begin putting the pieces of the puzzle together. She asked the right questions at the right moment that helped me excavate meaning. There is much more I could say about Chi Young, but maybe most important is that ancestral healing is her gift from her ancestors that she offers to us. I am deeply grateful to Chi Young for cultivating this gift and for all that it has brought to my life.”

-Chris Evans, Interdisciplinary Artist

“Such deep respect and gratitude for the powerful medicine that Chi Young offers with her particular signature as a Korean American woman. As the daughter of Chinese immigrants, I specifically wanted to work with a healer of East Asian descent, who would understand the deep imprint of patriarchy and immigration on my journey. From our first session, I have felt safe and awed by the healing container that we have co-created and prayed into being. As a psychologist and spiritual practitioner, I have experience with many different healing modalities. I have found ancestral healing to be a powerful adjunct in my life.” 

-Vickie Chang, PhD, Healer & Activist

“I am so so grateful to have worked with Chi Young. I absolutely love the way she holds space. She creates an extremely safe and protected container that allows me to go very very deep. After a few sessions I had a profound experience where I could understand origins of my deepest emotional blocks and receive guidance from the ancestors on how to proceed. This has been transformative-- the kind of healing we all strive for, but struggle to reach alone. Not only has Chi Young guided me through ancestral work to a new depth of connection and clarity, but she has also supported me in healing and opening my heart. I have a completely new relationship to my ancestors and this has brought endless blessings to my life.”

“Working with Chi Young allowed me to connect with my ancestral lineages in a way that I hadn't known was possible. During our sessions, she helped me feel deep in my bones and being a group of my ancestors who are from a time before time, from before various traumas occurred along my ancestral lines. These ancestors had immense gifts to share, and Chi Young brought these gifts to my awareness with grace and insight. She created a sense of groundedness and safety during our sessions, which also helped me feel comfortable exploring the edges of some of my ancestors who were still unwell and not able to support me at this time. This full spectrum of embodied knowledge has served me greatly, as I now feel a lineage of beautiful souls who are continuing to work on healing my ancestral lines as well as supporting me in my daily life. I highly recommend sessions with Chi Young for those who feel called to explore the ancestral aspects of their healing journey.”

“My ancestral work with Chi Young has been life-changing. It has been so profoundly beautiful to connect with my ancestors through her guidance. I have done lots of healing sessions in my life, but I feel so held in these sessions. Chi Young holds a sacred, tender, and fiercely safe space like nothing I've experienced. My sessions feel like a deep and expansive unburdening, and in my life I am feeling a joy, lightness, and interconnectedness of a quality I've never felt before. My relationship to myself and my family is changing--I feel less alone and more fortified. Thank you, Chi Young for your magical gift. Your work's healing impact is rippling out in so many ways.”
