Why join the Commune With Shadow: Master Mind Shadow Group?

The Benefits of Joining

Life has its ups and downs and when you're down, it's natural to need support.

While family and friends may try to be there for you, sometimes they can’t hold the depth of what you’re going through. Other times, their support is well-meaning but misplaced reinforcing blame, ego, or avoidance instead of growth and healing.

In Communing With Shadow, you’ll find a different kind of support.

🔹 Heal the Wounds That Keep Repeating

Learn how to identify and resolve the unconscious patterns that cause recurring challenges in your life — so you can stop reliving the same pain in different forms.


🔹 Transform from the Inside Out

This isn’t surface work. It’s a deep, integrative process that brings lasting change — not by fixing who you are, but by integrating all of who you are.


🔹 Feel Understood, Even When Others Don’t Get It

When your family, friends, or colleagues don’t understand your healing path, this group will. You’ll be met with compassion, depth, and real presence.


🔹 Be Held in Unconditional Love

You’ll have a space where it’s safe to be seen including the parts you’ve hidden or judged. This container offers full acceptance, not performance-based approval.


🔹 Bring Your Darkness Into the Light

Your shadows will be welcomed here. Not as flaws to fix — but as parts to meet, hold, and heal through wise, loving presence.


🔹 Explore the Parts You’ve Hidden (Even From Yourself)

Together, we’ll uncover the patterns, emotions, and inner truths that have remained buried and help you move through them with skill and grace.


🔹 Receive Skilled, Professional Guidance

With Kim’s decades of experience in shadow work and developmental therapy, you can trust that this process is guided with care, depth, and psychological safety.


🔹 Experience Real Belonging

This isn’t just a group. It’s a community. A place where your full self is welcome and where others are walking the same courageous path beside you.


🔹 Be Witnessed in Wholeness

You’ll no longer have to split yourself to be accepted. In this group, all of you belongs the light and the shadow, the fear and the strength, the doubt and the desire.

🔹 Feel Supported in a New Way

In a world full of expectations and roles to perform, being in a space of radical acceptance and honest healing can be life-changing.

Only 16 participant spaces available per cohort

This group is intentionally small to preserve the depth of connection, the safety of the space, and the quality of support. If this program is calling to you, trust that and take your next step.

What previous mastermind members have said about the experience...

"Kim's work is a gift from the heart. Kim's compassionate and engaging presence provides precisely what is needed when doing the hard work of healing.”

- Stephanie Morrison

"I have worked Kim for many years, both one on one and in workshops. He has been the most impactful therapist, guide and coach I have ever worked with. His power comes from his many years of lived  experience and wisdom, both professionally and personally, coupled with his unique gift of knowing how to meet you where you are and expertly support and guide you in your own healing and growth. He brings no ego nor agenda other than simply wanting to help you find greater peace and happiness."

- Karen Peterson

“Compassion. Awareness. Play. Creativity. Presence. Honor. Intuition. Strength. Laughter. Sensitivity. Intelligence. Understanding. Respect. These and so many other words describe my experience of Kim Barta during the years I have known him. More than just exhibiting these qualities himself, though, he is committed to supporting the emergence of these qualities in others. I feel fortunate, blessed even, that I’ve had the opportunity to participate in his workshops and private coaching/mentoring sessions with him. He has been an invaluable guide, consistently and sensitively orienting me toward my own experience and knowledge. And at the same time, he’s been an innovative teacher, always willing to answer questions and share his considerable understanding of integral models of human development, which is based on decades of his counseling, coaching, parenting, and personal experience. Our forays into more profound, more authentic ways of ‘Being’ have not only been a pleasure but also a treasure of immeasurable value to me. I couldn’t recommend Kim more highly!”

- D.J.

“Kim provides a very defined and clear framework for the shadow process, knows how to hold a very loving and gentle space for learning, and is very clear and eloquent in his explanations of concepts.

-Roby M.
