Fellow Soul-Searcher

Dr. Royce Fitts, MFT

I’m Dr. Royce Fitts, Spiritual Counselor and Dream Worker. I’m certified as a Spiritual Care Professional and a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have decades of experience as a clinical psychotherapist and liberal theologian. I’m a soul-searcher like you. I provide healing for:

Honoring Your Heart’s Deepest

Longings and Values

Some of the hardest, most enriching and loving work we will ever do is to try, in the face of all the struggles and tragedies in our world, to create meaning, beauty and healing in our personal lives and in the life of the larger world. This, if anything, is our calling.

If invited, I am honored to walk along your side as we explore your path and truth and move toward your healing. Spiritual Counseling and Dream Work is about deep, honest soul-searching for you to become your most authentic, healthy self. This is for you, your loved ones and for our beautiful, wounded world, for us to be “a light unto our courageous path.”

"An extraordinary read! Geography of the Soul, by Doctor Royce Fitts, is arduous and gentle, challenging and provocative as he takes the reader on a true pilgrimage across the Ridgeway Trail in England, 100 miles on foot. It's deeply personal, confessional, and yet accidentally spiritual..."

"In this compelling memoir, Dr. Royce Fitts has crafted a literary masterpiece that will resonate with readers across the globe. The book's ability to simultaneously touch our hearts, stimulate our minds, and nourish our souls is a testament to the author's endearing spirit and profound understanding of the human condition."

“Royce takes you on a non-linear journey into the inner and outer landscapes of his life. His stravage, as he describes it—‘…engaging in a defiant walk, a decision to stray without limits…’—invites you to see beyond your conceived notions and beliefs and stretch into limitlessness, flow, and mystery—a journey that many of us are afraid to take.”

“Infused with healing wisdom and profound experiences, The Geography of the Soul reminds us of the seamless conversation between our inner and outer landscapes. Royce Fitts transports us to stunning terrains, provides helpful in-sights for times when we feel lost and hopeless, and encourages us to venture onto trails we might ordinarily overlook. He shows us how we can become more whole.”

“Royce Fitts is the perfect guide to shepherd us on a journey into self-discovery, healing, and wholeness. Throughout Geography of the Soul, with elegance and vulnerability, he weaves his life experiences together with world history, geography, spirituality, politics, psychology, and DreamWork into a beautiful tapestry of self-authenticity.”

“As one who strives to appreciate synchronicities and intuition, I treasure (and plan to adopt) the author’s expression of ‘synchronistic intuitions.’ I appreciate how well he interweaves stories about the Nebraska prairie, the English terrain, projective dreamwork, counseling, and his own life experiences.”

The Geography of the Soul

What if you took a hike, a saunter, a stravage across an ancient land and it changed your life, forever?

In this introduction, you will experience how our sense of place, our relationships with our physical and spiritual landscapes, merging with our recollections of personal stories and nighttime dreams, can all be woven together to heal the wounds of our lifetime.

Creating Your Authentic Life—With Fullness, Healing & Meaning

I sit in presence with you as you explore your own internal territory, your spiritual geography...who you are — wounds, joys, yearnings — and help you create your authentic life, full of integrity, joy and healing. Open-hearted soul-searching invites you to become deeply vulnerable and compassionate toward yourself and others. Your healing will be a gift for yourself, your relationships and for our beautiful, wounded world.

Dream Work

Your Dreams Are Always On Your Side

In our gentle and deep work together, we will wonder and wander through your dream world and explore the beautiful meanings and healings in your dreams. You'll learn that your dreams are always on your side. They are a limitless inner resource — a library of wisdom! — full of insights, wholeness and healing. Your dreams are an adventure into your creative heart. Of course, I always honor "dreamer's choice" so there's never any pressure.

Are you a fellow healer?

Healing for Healers

The path of a healer has never been an easy one. You give so much of yourself to your craft, to serving others, to transforming lives. You take the risks of compassion, love and activism to “be the change”. However, as you drain your own well, deplete your inner resources, and keep pushing through, you end up with classic symptoms of burnout, exhaustion, and disconnection.

Through intimate, safe, and private conversations we’ll explore healing ways to restore you and to understand how your nighttime dreams come in service for your health, healing, wisdom and wholeness.

What Clients Say

"I am very grateful for the expert guidance Royce gave me with my troubling dream. It was amazing how, in such a short amount of time, Royce was able to help me so much (through his Spiritual Counseling and Projective Dream Work approach). What a wonderful introduction it was to Royce and his very caring and nurturing way of being with me. This was an unexpected gift. I felt these qualities and let them all in with relish. I eagerly await future sessions as I delve into my spiritual and dream life which I know will enrich my life greatly.Thank you so much."

"Dr. Fitts helped me through a huge transition in my life. At my first appointment, I knew I had landed in the exact right space. He was calm, supportive and firm and helped me navigate a difficult journey. I was able to recognize old, ingrained behavior and was finally able to break free of the patterns I had used as coping mechanisms my adult life. I would not be in the positive healthy place I am today without Dr. Fitts. I have recommended numerous people to him for Spiritual Counseling."

"I recently finished a very illuminating Spiritual Counseling and Dream Work session with Dr. Royce Fitts. I spoke of a dream that seemed bizarre – even silly! I was in a big church and suddenly I was at the altar for communion wearing curlers! Royce guided me, using his Projective Dream Work approach, through all the aspects of the dream: the tone (silly!), the characters, what they did, the symbols, and the emotions and helped me untangle it all. In the end, I felt reassured and validated about growth and changes in my personal and spiritual journey. I could see how my dream was revealing my callings to new life and was inviting me to grow even more into my authentic self. Dream Work and Spiritual Counseling is powerful with Royce!"

"Dr. Royce Fitts has been an integral part of my healing the last 20+ years. He has great creativity with healing and a way with words that I’ve never encountered before. But one thing stood out and has helped heal me more than I could have ever imagined- his Spiritual Counseling and Dream Work. It opened me up to a different world of healing and processing, and catapulted me to an emotional level I never would have dreamed of. As a father of two wonderful girls, I value my emotional health and what that means to them. Dr. Royce Fitts has helped me to become that Dad I always wanted to be. I cannot praise enough the significance of the Spiritual Counseling and Dream Work has done for me."
