About...
I'm Rev. Dr. Meagen Gosiewski, minister, therapist, spiritual director, and the founder of Soul Stretching.
For more than 20 years, I've walked alongside people in their healing through therapy, pastoral care, contemplative practice, and sacred community. My work lives at the intersection of emotional wellness and spiritual growth, and I believe deeply that true healing requires both honest inner transformation and a living connection to the sacred.
My academic journey took me from DePaul University to Adler University, where I earned my master's in Counseling and Organizational Psychology, and eventually to Emerson Theological Institute, where I completed my Doctorate in Religious Studies. My doctoral research focused on Mary Magdalene, healing, and transformational spirituality, work that became the heartbeat of my upcoming book, Your Soul Was Never Broken.
By day, I serve as Associate Minister of Pastoral Care at Unity of The Blue Ridge, leading the church's Prayer Chaplain and Pastoral Care teams. Through Soul Stretching, I offer healing workshops, sacred merchandise, and spiritual tools rooted in contemplative and mystical traditions, including Mary Magdalene candles, rosary beads, ritual tools, and Florida Water products.
I also teach workshops connected to the themes of Your Soul Was Never Broken, speak regularly at Unity of The Blue Ridge, and share teachings on YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook for those who want to continue the journey beyond our sessions together.
At the heart of everything I do is one unwavering belief: you are already whole.
