31 Dec Phelicia Okon Magnusson
Phelicia Okon Magnusson is a queer, Black, Sierra Leonean, Nigerian, and Swedish American herbalist, flower essence practitioner, Abọ̀rìṣà, intuitive channel, and mother living on Vashon Island. She is the founder of Queen & Crow Healing Arts, where she has offered flower essence work, herbalism, and community-based healing since 2017, and has been seeing clients and teaching about plants and embodied healing since 2014.
Phelicia’s work centers people of color and those seeking to reclaim intuition, heal generational trauma, and move through life transitions with deeper resilience and trust. Her practice is shaped by a lineage of plant wisdom rooted in her great-grandmother’s practices in Brooklyn, her mother’s teachings from the forests of northern Idaho, and her own life lived between Hawaiʻi, northern Idaho, New York City, and the Pacific Northwest. She maintains a devotional relationship with the Òrìṣà as forces of Nature, informing how she listens, witnesses, and works.
Grounded in over a decade of client practice, community teaching, and ongoing mentorship, Phelicia weaves somatic awareness, spirit-led guidance, and deep listening into spaces that support nervous system regulation, embodied healing, and reclamation of inner knowing. She approaches somatics as a politicized practice supporting collective healing.
Her work invites people into relationship with their bodies, the plants, and the wisdom that emerges when we slow down to listen. Learn more at queenandcrow.com and Instagram @queenandcrow.
