Lucas Handwerker is your imaginary friend based in the Hudson Valley.
A subconscious guide and spiritual counselor, his work explores the healing power of ritual, dreams, language, and imagination.
He is the author of three books, and his weekly letters reach 11,000+ people in all 50 states and 47 countries.
He is also the host of Make Light: Community Healing Hours, a monthly virtual healing salon.
For the last 13 years, he’s helped thousands of 1:1 clients heal at the subconscious roots—removing inner blocks, dissolving anxiety, resolving trauma, stopping self-sabotage, changing habits, and making deep inner shifts. No analysis paralysis or endless dwelling.
He specializes in the things you can’t quite name but deeply feel: the root beneath the symptom, the knot behind the habit, the wound wrapped in silence.
He heals strangers without seeing their faces. He believes everything is a miracle and suspects reality might be a dream.

When Lucas isn’t guiding clients through deep inner work, he’s training therapists in his modality (Soul Root Healing), collaborating with artists like Philippe Petit, and hosting healing gatherings in the woods.
He’s been known to write sentences that change people’s brain chemistry, rumored to guide healing journeys in the Colorado high country, and is said to know why the grass grows and where all the missing socks go—but he still hasn’t finished Citizen Kane.
Lucas is Mystic-in-Residence at Cygnet’s Way, perched above a neon art studio in Kingston, NY, and a guest instructor at the Omega Institute.
Philippe Petit called his presence “unmatched in power and uniqueness.” Elizabeth Lesser described him as “a rare combination of depth, delight, and skill.”
When he’s not leading monthly community healing hours, training practitioners, or writing beneath a canopy, you can find him wandering near wild strawberries, quietly listening to birdsong.
