Welcome!

My name is Teri Blackstar and I was born in Newport, Oregon to a native Cherokee family.  Cherokee elders taught me the culture and traditions of my people and I have dedicated my life to the priesthood as of 1996.  I have spent many years learning the ceremonies and medicines of my people.  I have also spent time with elders from other tribes learning their wisdom and healing ways.

Not to disparage my father’s lineage (English by way of Iowa) I studied English Literature in college and currently hold a BA in English Literature from the University of Dallas as well as an Associates Degree in American Sign Language from Portland Community College.  I have worked in many fields as an advocate for deaf culture as well as Native culture and continue to work with people to help them experience their true spiritual self in a good way.

Currently I am providing holistic healthcare for animals large and small, wild and domestic.  I work with owners and their veterinarians to provide a full spectrum of health care options including direct communication with the animal, diagnosis of any energetic or emotional causes underlying the physical symptoms, and herbal/Native American remedies to complement the veterinarians care.  For more information please click here.  "I love animals."
