Training the Next Generation of Intuitive Leaders, Healers & Visionaries
Where emotional mastery meets multidimensional awareness.
The School for Intuitive Ascension (SIA) is an elite spiritual training school and transformational learning hub for professionals, healers, and intuitives who are ready to clear deeply, rise fully, and lead from soul-aligned power.
Founded by Merit Solara Duran, one of the few Certified Master Trainers of the Goran Technique, our school is known for delivering high-caliber, trauma-informed training that merges intuitive development with powerful inner clearing and emotional mastery.
Our students don’t just awaken their gifts — they embody their mission. They become intuitive therapists, coaches, and healers who actually create transformation — in themselves and in others.
The spiritual world is flooded with surface-level teachings, misaligned intuitive readings, and feel-good affirmations that don’t create real change.
We’re not here for that.
We’re here to train the world’s most grounded, accurate, and energetically clear intuitive leaders — the kind who can walk into a room and change the vibration. The kind who can support deep healing, read through emotional fog, and hold frequency for others to rise.
We do this by combining advanced clairvoyant tools, deep shadow work, trauma clearing, and emotional repolarization — inside a structured, high-touch learning experience that produces results.
If you’re here, it’s because you’re no longer satisfied with surface-level insight.
You want depth. Tools. Mentorship. Results.
You want to work with teachers who live what they teach.
You’re in the right place.
Our curriculum is built around real transformation, not temporary inspiration. We help students:
Our students emerge as certified intuitive therapists, trusted spiritual coaches, and activated leaders — grounded in ethics, mastery, and clear perception.
A 7-step and 5-step protocol proven to permanently clear trauma, negative patterns, and emotional blocks — foundational for all intuitive development.
Our flagship professional training for coaches, therapists, and psychics ready to integrate trauma-informed healing, spiritual guidance, and energy work.
Weekly and monthly spaces to practice, refine, and expand your intuitive skill set in a safe, high-frequency container.
Go beyond the mind and into the multidimensional body to dissolve unconscious barriers and align with your higher path.
