“To slow down is to be taken into the soul of things.”
-Terry Tempest Williams
I’m Emma Freeman, an artist, soul writer, Reiki therapist, intuitive medium, and teacher. I love creative expression, finding the sacred in the everyday, embracing slowness, deep connections, and listening to the heartfelt stories we all carry inside us.
To me, healing is a journey inward—discovering our true essence, growing through challenges, and reclaiming our radiant and joyful light. My own path through addiction, trauma, chronic illness, depression, anxiety and grief led me to this work, inspiring me to help others heal and connect with themselves in meaningful and empowering ways. That’s how Deep Rooted Healing was born.
I have worked in the arts and education for 20 years and have trained in philosophy, studio art, massage therapy, mindfulness meditation, and shamanic studies. I weave creativity and spirit into all I do. I’m a curious, sensitive and passionate soul—sober, playful, an animal lover, and part of the LGBTQ community. I live in beautiful Oconomowoc, Wisconsin where I grew up. After many years away, I was called home to grow deeper roots.

Let us pick up the stones over which we stumble, friends and build altars…
