Casey Dunne, MA, Somatic Psychotherapist and Priestess

Casey Dunne (she/her), MA, LPCC, is a USABP Somatic Psychotherapist, priestess, and founder of The Goddess Coven LLC, an educational platform where science meets sacred and the body becomes the bridge. She holds an MA in Mental Health Counseling: Body Psychotherapy from Naropa University, a BA in Psychology from CU Boulder. She serves as Naropa University adjunct faculty teaching somatic psychotherapy.


As host of Priestess Initiations, Casey bridges ancient priestess wisdom with modern psychological science. Her teaching draws from Jungian archetypal psychology, somatic approaches, goddess mythology, philosophy, herbalism, and her initiation into the Lilith and Isis priestess lineages following a near-fatal 75-ft rappelling fall, 22 skin grafts on her hands and months of physical recovery.


The podcast explores goddess archetypes as psychological maps, somatic psychology, shadow work, seasonal cyclical rhythms, and the integration of mind, body, and spirit.

April Lampert, MA, LPCC

As a somatic therapist, highly sensitive person, and someone reclaiming her own witch wound, April understands what it feels like to navigate a world that was not built for you and can oftentimes feel overwhelming. Her journey led her to become a Witch Therapist with a Somatic Counseling: Body Psychotherapy degree from Naropa University, but more importantly, it taught her that healing happens when we feel truly seen and understood.


Identity Disclaimer:

April (she/her) was afforded a great deal of privilege from her middle-class family and white, European ancestry, along with being able-bodied, well-educated, cisgender, heterosexual passing, thin-bodied, and gender-conforming. Other identities she holds include: witch, queer, woman, highly sensitive person, singer, dancer, mover, and poet.
