Yes there's a Lenormand spread called the Grand Tableau where you use all the cards in the deck. There are only ~36 cards in Lenormand, though.
I'm not familiar with a tarot spread that uses all the cards, but someone could have created one. There are a million spreads out there and I'm not very familiar with tarot.

Yea like Journalmuse said Lenormand only has 36 cards. I haven't used them either. But may be it's something else.

I had a reading once -- in person, years ago -- where the reader used a whole deck. It wasn't a spread, though. She just held the cards in one hand and started pulling them out one or two at time and gave kind of a stream of consciousness reading that was actually quite good. I think she was just using the cards as cues to guide her own intuition, and not reading them as absolutes.
I have found that the tarot readers who use cards this way -- to trigger their intuition -- are better. I used to go to another tarot reader about once a year with a friend... just for fun. If we got the same card that reader would never ascribe exactly the same meaning to the card for us. She would say something specific to our situations. That fascinated me, but she was also quite talented.
Anyway, perhaps if SI is using all the cards she's not doing a spread per se.

i have never known of a tarot spread that used all 78 cards. I've been reading for a long time. The most common are 3-5 spreads, celtic cross or the reader may have their own spread. For Lenormand, although you can do a grande tableau, most readers use a 3 or 5 card spread.
Her bio she says she lays out all 78 cards, I remember getting an in person reading many years ago and the guy used a lot of cards, but not the full deck. And that was a fixed rate and he took a while to read those cards.
I'm really curious about the reading and how long it took her. I understand if you don't want to share details, but did you find it incredibly detailed? what was it like? I just have a hard time wrapping my brain around this knowing how tarot works and how much space alone she'd need to read those cards, let alone time.
