Sacred Space is the earth based, whole person healing practice of Arielle Mesa, serving adults in Maryland, Virginia, Washington DC and California. In her words, it is a space to hold all of you.

Meet Arielle

Arielle is a multicultural, multiracial Licensed Clinical Social Worker and somatic therapist who has supported people through deeply personal healing journeys for over 11 years. Her work brings together somatic and relational approaches with liberation based, earth based and ancestral perspectives, honoring the interconnectedness of body, mind and spirit. Sacred Space grew from her own personal and professional journey toward honoring the whole human being, and the relationships, histories and living world of which we are a part.

Alongside her practice, Arielle has kept ongoing commitments to deepen her study and apprenticeship of ancestral earth based practice with Indigenous and First Nations wisdom keepers, teachers and elders across North, Central and South America.

“Healing is not about becoming someone else. It is a process of remembering, reclaiming, and cultivating a deeper relationship with yourself and the living world.”
