Reiki

Reiki is a safe, gentle, hands-on healing practice which can help energize and offer pain, stress, and emotional relief. A Reiki session may fill a person with feelings of relaxation, peace, and well-being. Reiki can also promote healing at the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual levels thereby increasing self-worth, confidence, and peace.

Reiki originated in Japan in the early 20th century and is built on the belief that the body is innately able to heal itself. The word “reiki” loosely translates to “universal life energy”. It comes from the Japanese words “rei” (universal) and “ki” (life energy). Reiki is considered a type of energy healing. According to practitioners, energy can stagnate in the body where there has been physical injury, emotional pain, or trauma. Over time, these energy blocks can cause illness. Reiki can help to improve the flow of energy around the body, which can enable relaxation, reduce pain, speed healing, and reduce other symptoms of illness.

During the Reiki session, the client is fully clothed while comfortably reclining on a massage table or seated in a chair. The session is performed by using specific hand positions or energy scanning either lightly touching the body or just above it using energy to treat physical ailments without the use of pressure, manipulations, or massage. After a session, my clients have commented that they feel more relaxed, more relieved, and peaceful and more fully connected within themselves.

I am a Reiki Master. In 2019, I received my Master/Third degree certification of the Reiki Method of Natural Healing from Gurunater Kaur Khalsa, in Herndon, Virginia. In 2016 and 2017, I received my certifications for Reiki levels 1 and 2 from Rani George in Rockville, Maryland.

In keeping with the integrative and holistic vision of my practice, I am offering Reiki sessions for my clients when I can provide this service in person. A full session is typically sixty minutes; however, shorter sessions can be arranged in addition to other services that I offer.

Virtues Project

I am also a Certified Virtues Project Facilitator. The Vision of The Virtues Project™ is to serve humanity by supporting the moral and spiritual development of people of all cultures, by helping them to remember who they really are and to live by their highest values. The Mission of the Virtues Project™ is to provide empowering strategies that inspire the practice of virtues in everyday life through programs of excellence and simplicity which support people of all ages to cultivate their virtues – the gifts of character. I have been a character educator using the Virtues Project for over 20 years and have offered workshops to teachers, parents, and students.

I continue to speak and use the language of the virtues in my everyday life and I am grateful that I was able to raise my children, share this project with family, students, schools, and my community. 

If you are interested in a workshop or training, I am available to share this work with you or your organization.

Family and Systemic Constellations

The goal of Constellations work is to identify the hidden dynamics that influence a particular system, and can be used to investigate ancestral, familial, interpersonal, and organizational dynamics. This unique approach offers practical and sustainable solutions for long-term change. Family and Systemic Constellation work is a highly effective method that offers clarity and resolution to personal, professional, and health-related issues.

I am a trained Family and Systems Constellations Facilitator which is a complementary therapy to help decrease the conflict and increase the flow of love within a family or any system impacted by intergenerational trauma. I have found that when working with a client who has been suffering and struggling with an issue particularly with one’s family for many years, that by bringing in the lens of Family and Systemic Constellations work, deep psychological and energetic changes frequently take place allowing my clients to feel liberated and at peace.
