Where Ancestral Feminine Intelligence meets Clinical Rigor

Isa Modern Medicine holds the ancient intelligence of the earth and the emerging science that meets it  – practiced with the rigor of an Ivy League registered nurse, the reverence of an initiated medicine woman, and the ingenuity of an artist fully present in the work.

Meet Isabel Jane Allen. Multidisciplinary artist, healer, speaker, and mentor to women.

Who is Isa Modern Medicine

Teaching Teachers — I train and initiate psychedelic facilitators, psychotherapists, and space holders to hold ceremonies, altars, and awaken their dormant gifts inside of their clinical practice. I have taught sacred space holding to nursing students at Columbia University and Penn University.

Registered nurse, somatic therapist, initiated medicine woman — Master of Science in Nursing (Columbia), BA in Dance + Political Science (Eugene Lang College), certified somatic therapist and applied neuroscience coach, bridge and steward of ancestral medicine practices, weaving with Mexican and Peruvian traditions alongside my elders. As a living Renaissance woman, I embrace and celebrate our multitudes.

Thirteen years guiding women through thresholds — I have been tending the sacred thresholds of life since I was a little girl wandering the forest, connecting to the great mystery of nature. I’ve been helping humans move through birth, death, grief, marriage, career transition, spiritual initiation, and many of the sacred passages modernity ignores.

Bespoke One-to-One Mentorship and Therapeutic Services

One-to-one work for humans in metamorphosis. High-touch, multidimensional, and held from one side of the passage to the other – while you birth your own greatness.

Facilitation

Ceremony of Aliveness

Two hours of ceremonial cacao or tea, elemental purification, breath practice, live music, and deep somatic presence.

Private Ceremonies

As an initiated ceremony leader, I create sacred space for life's thresholds: plant ceremonies, weddings and sacred unions, blessingways, first-moon rites, solstices, and equinoxes. Each one is one of a kind, rooted in the wisdom of the Earth, and dripping in beauty. 

Teaching and Curriculum

For nursing programs, clinical training, facilitator cohorts, and anyone building something that needs both rigor and reverence in it.

Workshops & Speaking

I teach the Art and Heart of Communication globally, focusing on the nervous system, emotional intelligence, and relationships. My workshops promote authenticity, alignment, and living one's truth fully.
