Shawn Engel
Somatic Shadow Worker

Transforming trauma into confidence by releasing the deepest pain of your past with somatic techniques 

Hi! My name is Shawn Engel and I'm a professional somatic shadow worker! I work with women online to sift through their shadow to release the grief and pain that holds them back from being FIERCE!

A quick test to see if you need me? Think of a memory that you're "supposed to be over already," If it still hurts, you haven't felt or released! That's where I come in.

I employ my decades long mastery of intuition, tarot card readings, and astrology into my personal method that helps women heal, grow, manifest, and thrive! If you're nervous about where to start, take the quiz below!

I do live events, hold readings in person and online, have published FOUR books on spell work, and host an online coven. And I want to help YOU!

How Do I Know I Need Shadow Work?

What is Shadow Work?

Psychoanalyst Carl Jung first developed the concept, using the term “shadow self” to describe the things people repress or do not like to acknowledge. He theorized that it is a counterweight to the persona, which is the self that people present to others. Within the shadow lies our fears and traumas, and if left unchecked, can lead to self- sabotage.

My signature Shadow Work method exists in five stages:

Illumination (finding the belief)
Processing (grieving the belief)
Deconstruction (truth > belief)
Connection (to current behaviors)
Integration (changing behaviors)

In order to embrace your shadows with love and acceptance, which is the goal of shadow work, you must walk through these stages carefully, patiently and committed. These are the integral parts of who you are, and they are not going away. And by acknowledging and integrating these aspects of yourself, you can experience profound healing and transformation.

Have questions?? Head to my FAQ's

Do You Need ANSWERS??

When my clients first come to me, usually its because they are beginning to notice their self sabotage. Perhaps it's in the context of a stressful relationship, a job change, or just plain feeling lost!

Well I can help you navigate all of that and everything in between, sweet angel! From emailed tarot readings to chatting with me on zoom or in person, or even a weekly meet up, I have offerings to fit all of your needs and lead you to certainty.

Are you more of a self study gal?

I've made it incredibly easy to explore your shadow from the comfort of your own home. I have a range of digital products that include shadow work prompts, guided astrology, spells using cannabis, and even hexing your ex!

Do You Need
Community?

I host a coven meet up every Wednesday closest to the full moon. We have a chat where we catch up in between, and every one is at different levels of magickal mastery. Our past rituals have included:

A candle magick manifestation
An Aries season bonfore
A guided meditation makeup party

And we can't wait to make more magick with you!

Do You Need a Witch For Your Event???

As an experienced and acclaimed brand, I offer bookings for events (including live speaking engagements, rituals and classes, book signing appearances, and quick readings as entertainment) in addition to affiliate marketing and paid custom content. I'm a trusted addition to event planner packages, with my services being tailored to all types of engagements - having worked with spaces accommodating fifteen people to three thousand. With great customer service and a professional work ethic at its foundation, book me for events or content that require the highest level of quality.

Shawn Engel is the real deal. I owe her a debt of gratitude. By working with her, I was able to fix my relationship to a healthier one, and my boyfriend proposed to me a few months later. I'm 2 years happily married!

                                                                                             -Liza R.

When I came to Shawn I was a mess. For real. I had a horrible sleep schedule, diet, relationships, and I hated my job. Turns out the answer to all of that was in my shadow!!

                                                                                             -Jacqueline Q.

I love that I received my reading so quickly.
It really reaffirmed the energy I've been feeling around the job hunt and
helped me feel a bit more centered and relaxed as I ramp back up
my search with my contract ending two months early. I really
appreciate the clear messages and the inclusion of the photo. You're
the best!
                                                                                             -Katie H.

Thank you for this reading!! I needed this guidance to be able to confidently move forward. I love that the answers were straight forward! I really appreciate it greatly. It has cleared my vision. I will DEFINITELY get another reading done from this baddie.
                                                                                             -Korrine B.

Thank you SO MUCH, Shawn! I had been feeling like what you mentioned were my big stumbling blocks, but it is so hard to let go. I really, really appreciate you
confirming that is what I need, and giving me (and us, really) the confidence and direction to move forward. I am so grateful for your amazing readings!
                                                                                             -Lindsay T.
