Ancestral Lineage Healing
Ancestral healing helps you reconnect with your authentic path and purpose. It offers a way to transform harmful patterns passed down through generations and shift challenging dynamics within your living family.
If you've ever dealt with
Painful family dynamics and/or a sense of inherited complicity in and moral injury from systemic oppression
perhaps you've wondered
What is my right-sized role in shifting ancestral burdens?
As a somatic practitioner with decades of embodiment training and practice, I guide this work in a way that supports presence and grounding in the body, moving at a pace that feels right for you.
Benefits of ancestral lineage healing
- Experiencing an embodied sense of deep and unconditional belonging, support, and love from your well and benevolent ancestors;
- Deepening safe connection and intimacy with ancestors who were previously unwell such that they were unsafe to relate with;
- Gaining greater clarity and confidence around your life purpose as it relates to the blessings, medicine, and magic of your lineages;
- Experiencing increased self-confidence, self-love, and connection to your identities and cultural heritage;
- Sharpening perceptual channels of intuitive knowing and sensing;
- Cultivating embodied resilience in working to dismantle and heal cultural wounds such as Earth disconnection, human supremacy, colonialism, racism, and patriarchy.
As an earth-honoring Jewish ritualist, I support Jews and non-Jews on this transformative path of ancestral healing. If you’re interested in exploring the possibility of working together, please schedule a Curiosity Call below. Information about my sliding scale fee structure is here. I’m currently accepting new and return remote and in-person clients in Northampton, MA. Please note that remote work entails two to three sessions on zoom and subsequent sessions by phone.

Fees
I am currently offering 1:1 sessions on a sliding scale of $175 to $300 per session. Please discern what exchange feels like a meaningful, fair, and sustainable exchange for you based on your access to resources (income, wealth, family support, etc.). Please reference this sliding scale discernment guide from Alexis J. Cunningfolk of Worts & Cunning Apothecary for support with this and reach out if you have questions.
In order to honor the progressive nature of this work, as well as my need for some degree of economic predictability as a disabled, queer, trans person without generational wealth, I ask for a three month minimum commitment. To give more context, this timeframe often looks like three monthly sessions or six bimonthly sessions. If you would feel more comfortable having a first session before making this commitment, please let me know.
Payment is due in advance of each session either via recurring monthly Square payments (linked below) or Venmo: @simonwolff. If you would like a different payment method, please let me know via email at elishevasimonwolff@gmail.com. All sessions are 60 minutes except the initial 90 minute Ancestral Healing Assessment, which has no additional charge.
Economic accessibility note: If my sliding scale is not accessible to you, I understand (firsthand). Please reach out via the Connect page as I reserve a limited number of sessions each month at a reduced rate of $100-$150. If that reduced rate is still not feasible for you, you can reach out to Ancestral Medicine at info@ancestralmedicine.org to inquire about other certifiers practitioners in the network who are offering lower cost sessions.
