Reiki
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a gentle energy practice that helps balance the body’s natural systems. It supports stress relief, deep relaxation, and emotional and physical well-being by guiding universal life energy through the body.
What can I expect during an in-person Reiki session?
You’ll lie fully clothed on a comfortable massage table in a private, quiet, and peaceful space. I’ll place my hands lightly on or just above your body to help energy flow where it’s needed most. Many clients experience sensations of warmth, tingling, and deep calm and relaxation.
What can I expect during a distance Reiki session?
Distance Reiki works through focused energy and intention. Many believe the results to be just as powerful as in-person sessions. You’ll choose a quiet place to sit or lie down, free from distractions. We’ll connect briefly before the session to set an intention, and afterward to share observations. Most clients feel warmth, lightness, or gentle waves of calm during the session, followed by deep rest and mental clarity afterward.
How will I feel after a Reiki session?
Clients often leave feeling grounded, relaxed, and restored. In the days following, you may notice emotional or energetic shifts, as this is part of the body’s natural rebalancing and healing process.
What is animal Reiki?
Animal Reiki is a gentle energy healing practice that supports animals physically, emotionally, and energetically. It helps them, and often their owners, relax, release tension and stress, and feel more at ease in their bodies and environments.
How does animal Reiki differ from Reiki for people?
While the principles are the same, animal Reiki is adapted to the sensitivity of animals. Sessions are guided by the animal’s comfort level and can be done in-person or remotely.
What types of animals can receive Reiki?
All animals, from dogs and cats to horses, birds, and rescues, can receive Reiki. It’s safe, noninvasive, and works well alongside traditional veterinary care
Can Reiki be given to animals from a distance?
Yes. Distance Reiki works beautifully for animals, especially those who are shy, anxious, or unwell. Energy is sent to the animal wherever they are, and many relax or even fall asleep during the session
What issues can animal Reiki help with?
Reiki can support an animal's recovery from illness or injury, anxiety, emotional trauma, transitions, or provide end-of-life comfort. It also strengthens the energetic bond between animals and their caregivers.
Do I need to be present during an animal Reiki session?
For in-person sessions, you’re welcome to be nearby. For distance sessions, it’s often helpful for the animal to be in a familiar, comfortable environment.
What will my pet experience during a Reiki session?
Animals often show signs of relaxation such as yawning, stretching, lying down, or falling asleep. Afterward, they may appear calmer, more connected, or more playful as their energy rebalances.
Feng Shui
What is Feng Shui?
Feng Shui is the art of aligning your environment with your intentions to create harmony, focus, and flow. It considers how energy (ki or chi) moves through a space and how that energy influences your well-being, relationships, and success.
What happens during a Feng Shui consultation?
We’ll walk through your home or workspace, discuss your goals, intentions, and explore how energy moves through each area of focus. I’ll provide recommendations to improve flow—such as adjustments in layout, color, lighting, or placement—to bring balance and intention to your environment.
Do I need to make big changes?
Not at all. Some of the most effective shifts are simple, like rearranging furniture, decluttering, or introducing elements that better support your energy and goals.
Can you help with both home and business spaces?
Yes. I work with individuals and businesses to enhance well-being, communication, and prosperity through intentional design and energy alignment.
What is a Feng Shui Bagua Map?
The Bagua map is a 3x3 energy grid used in Feng Shui to analyze the energy of a space, like your home, bedroom, or office. "Bagua" translates to "eight areas" in Chinese, and each section corresponds to a different part of your life. Download my Bagua Map.
Space clearing
What is space clearing?
Space clearing is a way to refresh and rebalance the energy of a home or business, so it feels lighter, clearer, and more supportive. Rooted in ancient Eastern traditions practiced for thousands of years, it helps release stagnant energy and invite in harmony, vitality, and flow. Using Reiki, sound, intention, and natural elements, I clear energetic buildup and restore balance, so the space feels grounded, peaceful, and aligned with those who occupy it.
When is space clearing beneficial?
Space clearing is especially supportive during new beginnings—at the start of a season, when welcoming new opportunities, or as you prepare for a move, launch, or meaningful change in relationships or family/team dynamics. It can also bring balance after times of stress, illness, or emotional heaviness, or anytime a space simply feels stagnant or unsettled. These intentional resets help create an environment that supports your next phase with more ease and harmony.
Scheduling & payment
How long are sessions?
Reiki sessions are typically 60-90 minutes. Feng shui consultations, animal Reiki, and space clearings vary depending on the size and scope of the space or animal’s needs.
Can I combine services?
Yes. Many clients integrate Reiki, Feng Shui, and space clearing to align both their inner and outer environments. I have the Living in Balance package for this purpose.
Do you offer virtual sessions?
Yes. Distance Reiki, animal Reiki, and virtual feng shui consultations are available for clients outside the area or for those who prefer remote sessions.
What forms of payment do you accept?
All major credit cards are accepted. Payment is due at the time of booking.
