Meet the Team
R.G. SHORE
R.G. Shore is a Spiritual Teacher, Energy Healer, Spiritual Counselor and Founder of Northwest Wisdom.
He began his journey with a bachelor’s degree in Religious Studies, but his spiritual journey has led him much farther. Through many hardships, and firsthand experience with the marginalized, R.G. has really begun to shape and cultivate his spirituality through lived experience.
R.G. was incarcerated for nearly 3 years. It was through his incarceration that he began to sit with his trauma. Being surrounded by very racist and dangerous people led R.G. inward. It was in prison that he began to master his own techniques for going into the body and sitting with the trauma within himself, harnessing that energy, transforming it into new pathways for change.
R.G. has a Masters in Education, and is a certified Reiki Master, and a certified spiritual director through SDI, and the Urban Spiritual Center in Portland, Oregon.
He specializes in embodied Spiritual Counseling, Healing energy, visualization meditative techniques, and Reiki Healing, and helps many people with grounding themselves.
He has a passion for working with marginalized communities, including people of color, people who have been incarcerated, or people dealing with religious trauma.
He is also the Award Winning Author of his Spiritual Memoir, The Ocean Inside Me.
