Kezia Vida has been a diligent student of her dreams since she graduated from Yale University with a degree in Philosophy in 2009. It was then that  she began 1:1 dreamwork with Marc Bregman, later joining North of Eden and entering their practitioner training program in 2013. Since then she has spent over 2000 hours directly working with 1:1 dream clients, leading dream groups, coordinating and participating in dream retreats, and educating about dreams. She has coordinated numerous retreats with and for the Natural Dreamwork team and spearheaded the Dream Caravan gatherings in New Orleans 2014-2016 which featured many Natural Dreamwork teachers.

In 2019 she published The Dreaming I, a dream workbook designed to facilitate a healing and transformative dream practice. Her pursuit of unseen realms have also included a 1-year shamanic studies program with the Power Path and a 18 month mentorship training program with the New Earth Movement. She is a firm believer in the animistic world view and infuses cross-cultural indigenous perspectives and philosophies in all of the therapeutic work that she does.

She is currently pursuing a Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Prescott College (expected graduation December 2024) where she is taking on an independent study in cross-cultural Dreamwork and its relationship to nature-based counseling. She is interested in how somatic-based practices, emotion-focused therapy, parts work, and trauma therapies could be utilized alongside dreams to facilitate the therapeutic process.

Her passions include making dreamwork as accessible as possible to folks of all walks of life, developing alternative ways to collaborate and share resources outside of capitalism, and gathering people under the stars to eat delicious food, laugh, sing and wail.

She is a devotee of our Mother Earth, and finds a deep well of support, guidance, and trust through her work tending and supporting a unique swath of xeric upland Sandhills covered in sea green lichen on Chahta lands in so-called “Mississippi”. There, she helps support a burgeoning natural education and retreat center at All You Need Institute.

She lives with numerous landmates and collaborators, as well as her husband Jordan and her 2 year old son Boaz.
