Laura Rowe is an empath, spiritual seeker, and intuitive healer living in Portland, Oregon. She founded The Vital Spirit in 2013 and has worked with hundreds of empaths helping them feel comfortable in their skin and connected in this world. As an empath herself, she knows the struggle of feeling different, misunderstood, and judged for her sensitivities. She cares deeply about empowering empaths to inhabit their whole self—accepting and deeply connecting with the truth of their being.
Laura has spent 35 years studying spiritual traditions and practices and the last 16 years training in intuitive energy healing modalities, with certificates in reiki and theta healing. And for eight of those 16 years, she worked with a mentor, Linda Kardos, who was a pioneer in intuitive energy healing. Laura’s background in business operations—holding a BA in business management and a Master’s degree in organizational management—is where she honed her natural skills in systems thinking that helps her identify patterns in behavior and energy that has informed her study of empaths.
