Dori Midnight is an ordained interfaith minister and intuitive counselor who has come from a long line of tough ladies who healed people in their kitchens. She believes that healing is an "of the people, for the people" practice and works to keep healing accessible, affordable and full of magic. She teaches magic and folk & community herbalism to kids and adults, provides intuitive counseling and healing for individuals, creates rituals and ceremonies, and makes delicious potions in San Francisco.

"My work is firmly grounded in self-determinism and collective liberation and illuminated by ancestral folk healing practices and magic. I believe that healing work should not be a luxury reserved for the few, but that healing ourselves is inseparable from healing our communities and the planet. With an approach to healing that is accessible, practical, loving, and down to earth, I am committed to mindfully attending to the impact that oppression has on our spiritual, emotional, and physical well being. My intention is to make social justice and anti-oppression work an integral part of our individual and collective healing process. My commitment to using local resources reflects my ancestral heritage, the folk practice of using what is on hand, and my strong desire to be mindful of consumption. I only use organic or ethically wildcrafted herbs and will often suggest easy and affordable kitchen remedies that you could make yourself.

"I was ordained as an interfaith minister in 2005 at The New Seminary in New York City, where I also trained as a spiritual counselor. I am a Reiki Master and I have studied intuitive healing with Suzette Rochat (aka Cybele) for ten years and with Jackie India Dennis; flower essences with Jane Bell; and plant medicine at the Ohlone Center for Herbal Studies. I have taught magic, art, and healing arts to adults and kids at Free Activist Witchcamp, St. James Infirmary, Trans:THRIVE, cellspace, LYRIC, Youth Guidance Center, The Institute for Urban Homesteading, and Bay Area public schools."
