“The healing work I’ve done in ceremony and in 1:1 sessions with Evacheska has been the best imaginable investment in myself. Evacheska came into my life in a very unexpected way, and her presence at this time feels like divine timing at its best. (Just like the translation of her last name, deAngelis… she is from the angels.)

What I love most about her work is her desire to teach her clients how to heal themselves and to build a toolbox that they will carry on into their lives after their work with her. Instead of reliance on outer teachers and information, I, with the help of this work, am learning to trust myself, my abilities, and my knowing.

This journey has initiated a major shift in my consciousness and life path. I feel a deep connection to source, and I’m empowered to help others to remember their own connection to this divine, loving spirit of which we are always a part.

Evacheska is a beautiful, loving, and kind soul while Temple Sotto Luce itself offers a safe and peaceful container for deep self exploration. I am deeply grateful.”

“It might sound cliché, but my work with Evacheska has been life-changing. I came to her for help with a specific, deeply personal and painful issue I thought I’d never overcome. I didn’t even believe it was possible for me to feel safe tackling the issue.  I don’t really know how, but Evacheska made it seem easy to create a space that I felt very comfortable in. Our time working together was so successful that looking back it’s hard to imagine life before. Somehow though, overcoming that issue isn’t even what I’m most grateful for now.

With Evacheska, I learned, and was able to apply, so much. The biggest gift she gave me was some really practical tools on not only how to become a better friend to myself, but how to actually become my own best friend. In our integration sessions she helped me find muscles that I didn’t know I had AND how to use them. I’ve been able to improve upon and overcome some life-long obstacles and habits that didn’t serve me. Months after working with Evacheska, I return to the lessons learned at least a few times a day, every day. I’m so glad she’s back from her time studying in the jungle and will be signing up for more work soon. I’m so grateful for her and I couldn’t recommend her any more strongly!”

“The experiences that I’ve had through the guidance of Sotto Luce and Evacheska have been nothing short of life changing. Having reached a point where everything in my world felt insurmountably overwhelming, the only thing I could articulate was that I needed a mind and heart expansion. I didn’t actually know what I was asking for at the time, but I knew I needed to reframe my entire perspective in order to be a better friend, partner, mother, and human and, mostly importantly, care for myself. The tools needed to activate that expansion were handed to me through the guidance of Sotto Luce.

The methods used are clearly extremely distinct to each person, using personalized guide work, somatic and psychological approaches, meditation, sound and song, and the gifts of insight and clarity by Evacheska. These are not standard cookie-cutter psychological methods. We have all that we need to heal ourselves, whether we are dealing with trauma, addiction, emotional distress, or simply feeling stuck, and Evacheska's guidance hands us the keys to our distinct ‘journey back to self,’ as she so aptly calls it.

My own personal journey with Sotto Luce has brought more abundance, joy, gratitude, and love into my life than I can adequately express. As the layers peel back, Evacheska is there through every step, even if it is a temporary step back, with meaningful insight and integration, in addition to the intense work she facilitates on the road to meeting ourselves.”

“Evacheska changed my life – and I was not expecting it. I was also not expecting to cross her path, but as I now know for certain, our partnership was already written.

Evacheska has several superpowers she brings to the table to guide and shepherd you in your journey. Her vulnerability and ability to connect are unmatched.  If you meet her halfway, with your guard down and with vulnerability and honesty, she will carry you safely and sweetly through your wellness journey. She has a way of connecting with you personally, finding a common thread, allowing you to shed all of your fear, and lean into your healing.

Evacheska takes basic healing and wellness practices and turns them into insights that you can connect to naturally. She can take the most basic idea, one that we already know, yet somehow are not aligning to, and frame it in a way that directly correlates to your work. She synthesizes these ideas in a way that is tailored to you and your path, creating tangible images and examples for you to tether onto.

After one ceremony with Evacheska, I have honed setting intentions, and have started to accept myself in a way that I never thought possible. I have connected with my little self and have started a relationship with her I never dreamed of having which has supported my healing.  I have learned how to care for myself in a way that transcends any other process I have tried in the past. Evacheska was the driving force for my new life and I am forever grateful to her.”

“My ceremony with Evacheska was the most powerful spiritual experience I’ve ever had. Her guidance and beautiful singing allowed me to tap into my body and mind in a way I’ve never had access to before. I could feel and interact with energy inside myself and around the room in a powerful way. Her singing was incredibly healing and moved the process along. I highly recommend anyone interested in exploring their inner selves to sit with Evacheska.”

“My best advice to every person on this planet is to work with Evacheska. I have been on my path of intentional self-discovery for almost a decade, and have explored what feels like nearly every modality under the sun to heal certain traumas and patterns of behaviors. And while I have found help through all of those to some degree, I can say with complete confidence that working with Evacheska has been a total gamechanger. After just one session, I felt there was actual concrete work done on a level I had never experienced before. As though all of the work I did leading up to this was surface level, requiring so much effort on the day-to-day with little progress to show for it, and working with Evacheska finally created the deep shifts in my subconscious that were needed to activate the change in areas of my life that I always thought was impossible.

She holds such beautiful space that gives you the courage to face your deep dark shadows that have always held you back, and see them in a new light. She intuitively guides the ceremony to get you exactly where you need to be. From intention setting to integration, she is with you every step of the way; creating an intentional, reverent container. Working with Evacheska and Sotto Luce is the single best investment I've made for myself. I'm so grateful for all the work we have done together, and I can't recommend her enough.”

“When I came to work with Evacheska I was feeling stuck. I had done so much work on myself and still felt that my abundance was blocked and that areas of my weren't shifting despite my best attempts. I started to explore plant medicine as means of helping to transform my mind so that I could transform my life.

Through our work together, my relationship with myself has completely changed for the better. The preparation I did with Evacheska helped me to go into my ceremony prepared for transformation and integration after. My ceremony allowed me to experience my own power and the powerful love of God in my life. She also made some stellar recommendations on plants to integrate into my life post-ceremony, like Cacao and Blue Lotus, that have now become morning and evening rituals for me that continue to deepen my experience of abundance and awaken my mind and body to even deeper levels of consciousness.

I do feel new pathways in my brain have been created, as my life on this side, post-ceremony, is very different. I don't feel or experience stuckness, I feel more alive, more abundant and my life and decisions are actually reflecting it!! Evacheska is a gem of a human being, if you are struggling to shift an area of your life that feels stuck, work with her — you will be in the most capable, transformative hands!”
