about kelly

Welcome, my name is Kelly McInnes. With Celtic roots, I carry ancestry from Ireland, Scotland and England. I gratefully call these beautiful Coast Salish territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations, my home. Their teachings and values continue to shape the ways I live and care.

I am a Registered Craniosacral Therapist (RCST) with the Biodynamic Craniosacral Association of North America. What brings me to this path is a deep reverence for the creative intelligence of life.

As a child, growing up immersed in the old growth forests of Northern BC, I felt, with wonder, my connection within the web of life. This connection carried me through a difficult childhood, leading me to dance – the first healing arts I discovered. Sharing dance in community through choreography, performance and facilitation has been my medicine for almost 20 years. Through this work, I have developed a practice of deep presence, embodied awareness, somatic exploration and curious inquiry.

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy entered my life at a time when I suffered burnout and chronic health issues, and unbeknownst to me, also childhood and birth trauma. The therapy has been life-giving – transforming my life and well-being in profound ways. It has offered me something so precious – a reconnection to myself as living intelligence. Through BCST I continue to gain deeper levels of trust and awe in the body and agency in my healing journey. I wish this for us all. Through gentle compassionate witnessing, I support my clients to recover their health, inhabit and relate more consciously with their body.

I believe, within the traumatic life-destroying systems we live, each day is a practice in remembering ourselves as Earth, intricately woven within the web of life. Each of us who commits to this journey of healing ourselves, also heals the Earth. 

It would be my honour to accompany you on your journey.
