Worry Less, Reiki More”. I began my healing journey when corporate burnout had me feeling like a robot just going through the motions of my life. Reiki has been a springboard to my spiritual awakening, and has renewed my life-force energy!
I didn't grow up seeing Spirit or having premonitions, rather, it was during my own Reiki training in my 40's that my psychic and mediumistic abilities spontaneously opened up! So I'm here to tell you that anyone who wants to develop their intuitive senses can do it, and Reiki can help! Formerly an Event Coordinator and IT Project Manager, I have become a Psychic Medium and I am utterly fascinated by all things Spirit. What greater healing can there be than to receive evidence that those loved ones who have crossed over are not lost to us after all? God, Source, Spirit (whatever you call it) works in amazing ways, and they never cease to amaze me. We truly are eternal soul beings, and our loved ones are eager to communicate!
I invite you to be skeptical but receptive, to willingly suspend disbelief and journey with me into the incredible world of energy healing and mediumship. It's real and it's amazing.I believe we are not a body with a Soul, but rather a Soul with a body. We are all here in our perfectly imperfect lives in order to learn, grow, love, create, and evolve. We often spend our lives searching for external happiness before realizing that we must create it within ourselves. Through my Reiki Master studies, I have released negative energies and destructive patterns that no longer serve my spiritual growth, and I have learned to consciously choose positive emotions and constructive actions. After all,
the habits we create to survive no longer serve us when it’s time to thrive! I have given my inner-critic permission to be silent. I have learned to overcome my doubts, to trust my intuition, and to choose love over fear.
Reiki helped me recover from two major hip surgeries by alleviating my pain, calming my anxiety, promoting sound sleep, and empowering me to stop taking pain medicine and set aside my crutches weeks ahead of schedule. In 2021, I was able to be in the surgical suite giving Reiki to my younger son as he had all four wisdom teeth removed. He had minimal swelling, took no narcotics afterward, had no dry sockets or infection, was rock-climbing three days later, and eating almonds within the week! Whereas my older son had the same surgery with the same doctor years earlier before I had Reiki training, and he had an entirely different experience with four dry sockets, infection, significant swelling, and an extended recovery time.
Reiki is a transformative force that truly can heal our minds, our bodies, and our Spirit if we allow it.I trained and worked at
The Reiki Place with Mary Spohn Fielder for two years, then opened my own studio in the
Lotus Center for Wellbeing where I offered my services for two years. And now, I have a studio in the heart of downtown Colorado Springs!
It is quite normal for my Reiki clients to fall asleep, and all of them report feeling lighter and more relaxed afterward. Sensations range from tingling, wavy pressure, heat, visions of colors, and heavy or floaty limbs, to feeling a comforting presence in the room with us. In my sessions I sometimes meet a client’s Spirit Animal or receive intuitive guidance ranging from positive affirmations to book recommendations. It all comes with such incredible feelings of unconditional love and encouragement! Powerful validations strengthen a sense of peace, connection, and comfort for my clients, and fuel my wonder and gratitude for all that Reiki energy has to offer.
The healing power of Reiki energy is limitless, and I am beyond thrilled to offer Reiki Healing, Reiki Certification Classes, Psychic/Medium Readings, and Psychic/Medium Development classes both in-person and at a distance.
I hope Reiki will help you fall in love with your life again, and that you will let me be part of that amazing journey!I am a Usui Reiki Ryoho Holy Fire® III Reiki Master Teacher and Registered Karuna Reiki® Master Teacher, as well as an Angelic Reiki Practitioner, Lightarian™ Reiki Master, and Certified Medical Reiki Master.

In Spring of 2024, I had the privilege of visiting
Mount Kurama (the "birthplace of Reiki") where Mikao Usui, a Buddhist monk, was gifted with healing energy after 21 days of fasting and meditation exactly 102 years ago. It was beautiful, peaceful, educational, inspiring, sacred... and steep! SO many stairs! I led Reiki attunements there among the sacred Kami (Japanese cedar trees up to 800 years old), and felt a deep appreciation for my Reiki journey. It has truly changed my life, and opened up my world. Not to mention, the visit to Mt. Kurama healed a frozen shoulder that I had been suffering with for several years!
