Kathleen’s bond with nature started as child, where she always felt free and alive while she was outside. With bachelor degrees in Philosophy and Political Science, she found she wasn’t being true to her passions and gifts in an office or management setting. After years of working in the outdoor retail industry, she realized that being outside and being the connection between nature and people to be true to her heart, she moved into Wilderness Therapy. She worked with young adults that were transitioned into the wilderness for an extended period of time to find healing. Facilitating this growth in the outdoor setting felt right in her heart. She knew that she was getting closer to her calling. After extensive work with friends and first clients, she realized that working with a more willing, adult population, she could best utilize her passion and strengths. With this, Soulful Earth Guiding was born.
Kathleen has taken immersive courses in Ecotherapy, meditation, yoga and wilderness safety. Being a nationally registered EMT, she is ready for anything in the woods.
She has worked with individuals just starting a connection with the backcountry to those looking to expand to larger distances and mountains, gearing up to start planning their own adventures.
She also specializes in guiding private and community backpacking trips. Trips are developed with specific group desires and abilities in mind! Learn backcountry skills, gear selection, food preparation, route planning and survival skills for every terrain and skill level! We welcome everyone to get into the woods with us for a life changing experience.
