__________________________________________________
For those who feel called to energetic or spiritual healing, I practice a method of energy healing taught by “Healing in America”, a school of ‘holistic energy healing’ based in Ojai, California. This is a powerful generalized healing practice, which I often combine with Shamanic techniques taught by Sandra Ingerman - such as Power Animal retrieval, Healing with Spiritual Light, and Shamanic Journeying.
My role in a healing session is to hold space as an experienced facilitator and guide - with the intention of empowering individuals in restoring their own innate sense of balance, peacefulness and self-acceptance. Through the use of the previously mentioned energetic practices, opportunities often present themselves in sessions to experience heightened levels of awareness through guided relaxation - which may subsequently result in emotional release, deep states of presence, physical healing, and a re-awakened connection to Self.
Traditionally this work is done in person with a single client - however with access to modern technology, it can be easily facilitated from anywhere in the world. All that is required is a state of trust and an open mind for healing to occur in powerful ways, regardless of distance. I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to support your journey, and I look forward to working with you.
*Additionally, I facilitate guided meditations for groups, and teach foundational level techniques for energetic clearing and psychic self-defense.

FAQ:
Q: “Um…what is energy healing?”
A: Energy healing is a term used to describe a wide variety of techniques that can be used to bring a restored level of balance and harmony to the molecular structure of the body and mind. Modern quantum science states that ‘everything is energy’, and that focused observation and/or intention can actually have a profound impact on the electromagnetic structure of our cells. Energy healing essentially describes any intentional techniques that can have a positive impact on the flow of energy within human biology/physiology (along with any other chosen subject for that matter). Techniques can range from extremely complex (i.e. utilizing a series of intricate visualizations or mechanical body movements) or can alternatively utilize very simple methods - like slowing down your breath for a short time, or holding a vision of someone in perfect health. *For more information on the impact of focused intention (and hopefully helpful place to start your own research), you can explore the work of Dr. Bruce Lipton, Lynn McTaggart, and Wim Hof.

Q: “What can I expect in an energy healing session with you?”
A: Most healing sessions follow a similar structure, but things are always in a state of flow, depending on your personal needs or healing goals. We typically start with a short conversation to settle into the space and determine what you would like to work on that day - (*having a clear intention is always helpful, but is not absolutely necessary). After our conversation (which can often be very healing in itself), we begin a more formal style of healing work, which is a combination of various practices: guided meditation & visualization, breathing techniques, sound healing tools, and “hands-on” energy healing. The “hands-on” technique is done by placing my hands on specific points of the body, which are known by both science and many spiritual texts to be specific energy points or “gateways”, that can easily receive the healing energy (i.e. shoulders, elbows, knees, etc). Personal preference and comfort level is always respected, therefore the physical placing of hands on the specified points is only done if permission is given. At the end of a session, we discuss your experience along with any additional information that may have come up during the session. Coming into a session with an open heart and giving yourself “permission to heal”, can be KEY for this work to truly take place. Because we are working with non-physical energies, there is no guaranteed experience that can be expected. The effects of a healing may be subtle and present themselves gradually over time, while other experiences may be immediate and profound. The body may also want to detox after a session, and it is always a wise choice to hydrate a little more that usual. The whole process is intended to be a safe space for you to share, to relax, to receive, to be seen & heard, and to simply just “BE”.
Q: “What is the goal of energy healing? Why would I need it?”
A: The goal of energy healing is unique for each person, but the simple answer is that it allows your body and mind to rest. Through techniques that are specifically designed to facilitate a state of relaxation, the brain will gently be led into the “Theta” brainwave state. This allows many systems of the body to naturally calm down as it subsequently begins its own healing process. The philosophy is that the body always knows how to heal itself, but often the limiting beliefs and conditioned ideas in our mind are what stands in the way of our own natural healing process. One example is the impact of stress on the body. When we are stressed, the corresponding “stress-hormone” known as cortisol is released. Cortisol is helpful in small bursts, but when it is prolonged and sustained, it begins to have a strong negative impact on the body. Our aim through energy healing is to provide the mind a brief window of time where it can simply let go and get quiet enough to allow the body to heal itself. Everyone can heal, and one of the most supportive things we can do for ourselves is to believe we can heal, to choose to heal, and to have gratitude for the healing that is on the way.
“Each one of us has the ability to heal ourselves and others. That gift, which is often dormant, can be awakened and used to transform our lives, and those around us, into something remarkable”.
