I believe deeply in treating the “whole” person, mind, body, and soul integrating a variety of modalities including varying psychotherapeutic frameworks and energy healing.

I am committed to providing clients with multiple pathways to choose from to create a healing experience that is meaningful, intentional, and honors each individual's journey.

“As a healer working with social justice organizations, my work can be incredibly taxing. I came to my Reiki session with Emily feeling completely worn out and drained, but from the moment I walked in, Emily’s powerful yet soothing presence put me at ease. Throughout the session, I could feel her care and intention, as she lovingly and intuitively knew where to put each crystal on which part of my body, while using various sound healing tools for deep healing on all the levels. She created an environment so relaxing that I drifted off into a sweet trance/sleep. When I woke up, I felt refreshed, energized, and lighter, as if a weight I didn’t even realize I was carrying had been lifted. Emily’s incredible skill and grounded energy made this a truly transformative experience. I can’t recommend her enough to anyone seeking balance, restoration, and a renewed sense of self.”

Commonly Asked Questions
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a healing therapy with its roots in Japanese origin. Reiki comes from the words "Rei" meaning Universal Life and "Ki" meaning energy. Reiki is the energy that flows through every living thing. When this energy is weak or blocked in someone, they can suffer from both physical and emotional imbalances. During a Reiki session, the practitioner acts as a channel for this Universal Life energy and helps to create strong, free flowing energy throughout the clients body. Working with the principle that everyone has the ability to heal themselves when connected to their own life force energy, Reiki helps activate their own power to heal. This results in a reduction of stress, and helps restore physical and emotional well-being.
What Will I Experience During an In-Person Reiki Session?
During a Reiki session, clients will lie fully clothed on a massage table while the practitioner works around their energetic field. This process often induces a deep meditative state, allowing individuals to experience a range of sensations. Commonly reported feelings include warmth, tingling, and a reduction in mental chatter, along with visual impressions such as colors or lights. While each person's experience is unique, deep relaxation is frequently noted as a shared outcome of the Reiki practice.
What Will I Experience During a Virtual Reiki Session?
In a virtual Reiki session, you can anticipate a similar experience to that of an in-person appointment, where a qualified practitioner facilitates a relaxation process while directing Reiki energy remotely, typically through a video call. Although there is no physical touch involved, individuals may perceive sensations such as warmth, tingling, or subtle pulsations within their bodies, depending their sensitivity. This practice can promote deep relaxation, alleviate stress, and encourage emotional release, all within the comfort of a quiet environment at home. Engage this transformative healing experience and benefit from the power of distant energy work.
What Should I Expect to Experience After a Reiki Session?
Reiki sessions can lead to a variety of unique experiences for each individual. Common benefits include profound relaxation, improved sleep and digestion, and a release of accumulated daily stress. Many also report enhanced mindfulness, increased creativity, and a strengthened immune system following their sessions. Embrace the journey and discover the positive changes Reiki can bring to your life.
