HI, I'M KATRINA, AKA THE SINGING ORACLE

I’m a professional vocalist, voice liberation guide, and intuitive. I believe your voice is the most powerful tool you have within you. My work helps you use it to regulate your nervous system, move energy through your body, and feel safer expressing who you are and allowing yourself to be fully heard.

​

I’ve been singing for as long as I can remember. I sang because I loved it and because nothing else made me feel quite the same way. Through an often unsettled childhood and frequent moves, singing was the one thing that consistently felt good. Even then, people would ask me to sing for them. I did not yet understand the healing capacity of the voice, but I could sense that something shifted when I sang.

At the same time, I learned early that being heard could be complicated. I was praised for my voice while also receiving the message that I was too loud, too much, or somehow still not enough.

I carried that contradiction with me as singing became my profession. I studied jazz at The New School University in New York City and went on to record, tour internationally, and work with artists and producers. I knew how to perform and move an audience, but being fully present and allowing myself to be seen was another story.

​

WHY THIS WORK IS PERSONAL

For a period of my career, substances became the way I managed the vulnerability of being seen. They helped to quiet the deep rooted self-consciousness I felt, and made it easier to step onto the stage. I could perform and move an audience, but I was often not fully present in my voice or body. Knowing how to perform was not the same as feeling safe enough to be fully seen.

In 2018, a painful ending became a major breaking point in my life. It led me deeply into somatic practices, mindset work, and healing. Learning to sing without substances became part of that process. It meant allowing myself to experience the vulnerability of being witnessed without the buffer I had relied on before.

Performance was never the problem...the disconnection was.

Through that work, I began to understand that I was not here only to perform. I had always known that my voice could shift energy and now, I was finally learning how to work with that capacity consciously.
