“Tenaya's workshop, "The Art of Kairomancy," was the highlight of my weekend at Spirit Weavers! She created a warm, inviting space in which I could connect with other dreamers and explore the magic of being alive. The workshop was a great mix of dream theory, storytelling, meditation, and tips for how to practice the art of Kairomancy in our day to day lives. Since the workshop, I am titling my dreams as I journal about them each day, and have done the Lightning Dreamwork exercise with my partner multiple times. It feels like my dream life has been reinvigorated, and I have the oracle card I drew in the workshop up on my altar. I highly recommend Tenaya and her workshops to others.”

“I want to thank you for a fascinating breakdown of my very complex dream. You asked the best questions that stirred my own answers, and also offered reflections of things that were so resonant, but out of my reach. Also, you didn’t seem intimidated by the length, numerous symbols and twists and turns of my dream—which helped me not to be overwhelmed by it either. You’re a dream-master.
If one dream holds all that juice—I can only imagine that I have a bible of dreams within me. How delightful to think that each of us have this capacity—if we hone in our skills and get support from you, the dream-speaker. Definitely want to do a dream session with you again…”

About Me
My name, Tenaya, means “One who dreams" or "dreamer of wisdom" in the Ahwahnechee language of the people people who traditionally lived in the Yosemite Valley and still live in surrounding area, and it has always felt like my calling. My parents chose this name for me, and they nurtured my interest in dreams and art since I was a little girl.
For the past decade I have guided hundreds of students & clients through the inner realms of dreaming through Intuitive Dreaming classes, workshops and private sessions.
In 2018, I taught 2 workshops at Spirit Weavers Gathering: “Dreaming with the Ancestors” & “The Art of Kairomancy, Guiding Life by Synchronicity and Dreams.
I studied dream work in depth with Robert Moss, author and creator of Active Dreaming, and completed his three-year Dream Teacher Training Program.
"As someone who has never considered the value of her own dreams, I didn't know what to expect, and I was a little nervous to look at what my dreams were telling me. Tenaya not only helped me to understand how to review and examine each part of my dream, but she did so in a way that allowed the dream to reveal it's true message. The most profound thing is to dive into an unsettling dream and find a message of strength and empowerment behind it. It's a deeply personal process and I can't imagine a more gentle, intuitive, trustworthy and skillful guide. I see dreams now as a door into my true thoughts, and a tool for understanding myself better. I'm so grateful to Tenaya for showing me how to engage with my dreams in this new way."

“When I entered Tenaya’s space, the sense of magic was palpable. I felt held in that magic - as well as in the tremendous transition of this time of my life. It was as if the veils between the worlds slipped away - and the unseen presence became instantly more clear. I was guided deeper into the truth of my own being - and the mystery of my life. Tenaya was present with me, my life, and my dreams with genuine, heartfelt care - as well as expert insight. I felt safe to express my deepest feelings, and I felt seen with uncommon depth. I left feeling soft, strong, and open - filled with a sense of the wonder and majesty of what’s before me~ the sparkling wonder of the worlds of our dreams. Tenaya is a natural at offering access to this space. Join her for a dream journey; enter that oasis and be refreshed in ways you didn’t even know you were seeking.”
