My Reiki Story
I was introduced to Reiki during a difficult time. Looking at my life at that time, I had checked off all the boxes on my TO DO LIST OF LIFE. Even though I was a wife with a master’s degree in Nursing, working as a Nurse Practitioner, mom of 3 kids, a home church, owned a home and had a social life I was feeling unfulfilled. Soon after this realization, I started opening up to my internal world within the realm of therapy. Surprisingly, it became evident that I was disconnected from myself.
As an out-of-the box thinker with a holistic mindset, I was curious about complementary modalities for mental health. Undeniably, from my first Reiki session to now, Reiki has been enhancing my healing journey. I received my Usui/Holy Fire Level I training in 2019 followed by Usui/Holy Fire Level II in 2022. Additionally, I will be completing the Level III Master/Teacher training in 2024.
Combining therapy with Reiki energy healing really set my healing to accelerated mode. Above all, I began remembering who I was deep within myself. Looking back over the last 6 years, Reiki has been the underlying catalyst throughout my healing journey. As a matter of fact, Reiki continues to do the same today!
Undoubtedly, Reiki has had such a profound impact on my personal journey. In fact, my passion for energy healing extends to all areas of my life. With this in mind, I am honored to extend this transformative experience to you as well. Indeed, I believe we are all capable of creating a life full of fulfilling experiences and this begins with nurturing our own health and well-being.
It brings me joy to support you in achieving your own healing goals through the power of Reiki.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.

My Approach
As an energy healer and holistic Nurse Practitioner, my approach is unique. I am an advocate for holistic self-care and like to offer a “buffet” of self-care healing options that may complement your Reiki session(s).
These offerings of self-care are like little sips of self-love allowing you to take an active role in your healing if you so choose.
At the beginning of your session, we will have a brief conversation discussing your intentions or goals for receiving Reiki. I am happy to share insights and suggestions after your session, if desired. The main focus is meant to be on you and your experience.
