Celeste Lebak
Celeste Lebak is a pioneering guide who brings the transformative power of Internal Family Systems to both individuals and organizations through immersive retreats, revolutionary talks, and profound individual work. Unlike conventional approaches that separate personal from collective transformation, Celeste creates experiences that honor the sacred multiplicity in all systems, drawing from their unique background as a psychonaut, minister, educator, and catalyst for institutional change.
Celeste’s journey from educator to minister to transformational guide reflects a persistent quest to understand how genuine transformation happens. They are a teacher of teachers, a coach of coaches, a minister to ministers, a chaplain to chaplains, a counselor to counselors, and a leader of leaders. Their work is rooted in deep presence, an understanding of time’s fluidity, and the belief that every person carries the wisdom needed for their own transformation. Imagination is at the heart of their approach, serving as a bridge between what is and what could be. As the first gay ordained minister at America’s largest UU church, they navigated the intersection of faith, identity, and institutional change, shaping their commitment to spaces where all parts of a person—and all people within a system—can be fully seen. Founding the Restorative Justice Institute of Oklahoma further deepened their understanding of how personal and collective healing are inseparable. Now, through an approach that bridges IFS with expansive frameworks of time, self, and imagination, Celeste guides those who are ready to move beyond theory and into true integration.
