We believe that the Tarot can be used as a powerful tool for personal growth and transformation, and our aim is to help people connect with their inner wisdom and navigate through life's challenges in a more empowered way. Our approach is holistic and we work with clients on an individual basis to help them achieve their specific goals.

About Kyra

Hello!

My name is Kyra Paules (pronounced KEEr-uh Paul-us). My pronouns are she/her. At Awen Tarot, I offer tarot readings, psychospiritual coaching, and bodywork. My work is non-judgmental, person-centered, social justice-oriented, and creative. I blend my background in spirituality and alternative health with experience in non-profit social work and advocacy to provide a holistic approach to healing and self-discovery.

My journey with Tarot began at 13, keeping my passion secret from my disapproving mother. I started reading for friends after high school and went professional a few years later. Throughout my early life, I felt directionless, unmotivated, and struggled with anxiety and depression. My interests in the occult, social justice, and activism were constants, alongside a love for animals and a natural inclination towards animism and paganism.

In 2012, I found direction by graduating from massage school and becoming a Level I Kundalini Yoga teacher. This path connected my mind and body, helping me resolve my psychosomatic symptoms. Seeking more fire, I returned to school for social work while continuing massage therapy. I completed my BSW at Millersville University, training and volunteering with my county’s state-contracted sexual assault center, then worked full-time in prevention education and counseling at a domestic violence agency while finishing my MSW. My focus on incarcerated individuals began here and continued when I returned to the sexual assault center, where I worked as a counselor and program supervisor.

My awareness of psychosomatics, spiritual background, and trauma-informed therapeutic skills combined to shape my practice. Over the years, I’ve received numerous therapeutic, trauma-informed, and spiritual trainings, notably in shadow integration with Catherine Liggett and Jungian analysis. Recently, I have returned to offering bodywork through Awen Tarot, integrating this into my holistic approach.

In addition to my work at Awen Tarot, I am a licensed social worker/psychotherapist and owner of Rowan Therapy Collective, LLC. When you work with me, you get a well-rounded, depth-oriented, and supportive approach. I’ve served a diverse client population, including various races/ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, neurodivergent individuals, and those with disabilities or substance dependence. Clients describe me as warm, inviting, and a personal Grimoire of occult and healing knowledge. Our work together seeks to transform and reclaim lost aspects of ourselves, helping people heal and recover from trauma. I’m grateful to offer this service through my unique perspective and extensive experience.
