Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive healing practice rooted in ancient Japanese traditions. The word “Reiki” combines Japanese words “rei” (universal) and “ki” (life energy), symbolizing the flow of energy that connects all living things. Through light touch or hovering hands, Reiki works to restore balance and harmony to your energy system, supporting the body’s natural ability to heal.

This practice has gained recognition for its ability to reduce stress, manage pain, alleviate anxiety and depression, and improve sleep. By resetting the body’s stress response, Reiki encourages a state of deep relaxation and equilibrium, allowing the body and mind to function at their best. This is often used as a complementary therapy, which means it can be used alongside traditional medical treatments and/or counselling.

Are you struggling with feelings of anxiety, grief, or anger? Does it sometimes seem like a war within yourself, experiencing conflicting thoughts and feelings? Have you been to talk therapy before and found that how you see things may have broadened or changed but how you feel hasn’t completely shifted? Are you currently overwhelmed by life or generally unsatisfied and you’re not sure why? Or maybe you know exactly what’s challenging you yet the options for change or skills to process it seem elusive or unattainable?

You long to find an off-ramp to a cycle you feel stuck in. You are looking for more ease, balance, and joy. You want to see more choices, options, and possibilities ahead. You desire to feel seen and known, and crave a deeper understanding of yourself and others. Together we will explore thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and somatic symptoms that may be creating barriers to achieving your goals and experiencing a fulfilling quality of life.

If you feel stressed, burnt out, or overwhelmed by life, you’re not alone. In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to get swept up in the demands of life leaving little time to care for yourself. Stress affects us in profound ways - leaving us feeling tense, rigid, and disconnected. It can be difficult to breathe deeply, move freely, or allow your body to function optimally. Over time, stress can impact every aspect of your life: your health, relationships, thoughts, emotions, and work.

My approach combines mindfulness practices with compassionate support to help you find balance and relief. With formal training in counselling, I can help uncover how stress affects your mind and emotions, creating space for deeper self-understanding. As an experienced yoga teacher and Reiki practitioner, I recognize how the body holds stress and can guide you through mindful movement, breathwork, and energy healing to support your journey.

My goal is to create a safe, nurturing space where your nervous system can rest and recharge. Together, we’ll develop practical, personalized strategies to help you navigate life with greater calm, clarity, and confidence. We’ll explore ways to manage stress in both your body and mind, helping you feel more grounded, balanced, and deeply connected to yourself.
