Reiki Practitioner - Human Design Specialist - 20+ Years in Body-Based Healing

I help women find support and steadiness in turbulent times through Reiki and Human Design.

My work lives at the meeting place of science and spirit.

For more than twenty years, I've worked as a physical therapist assistant. I've sat with people in pain. I learned how the body holds what the heart hasn't had time to process, and how healing rarely moves in a straight line.

I love this work. But slowly, giving so much of myself one person at a time, I lost track of where I ended and everyone else began. I called it commitment. My body called it something else.

That was my own undoing, and my own becoming. Something had to end so something truer could arrive.

In that season I found Human Design, and then Reiki, and everything began to make sense in a new way. Human Design gave me a language for what I'd always felt but couldn't name. Reiki showed me that what the body holds, the body can also release.

I learned that I wasn't too sensitive or too much. I was simply built a certain way, and I'd spent years pushing against my own nature instead of living with it.

That's the work I do now. My clinical background keeps me grounded - I know the body, and I know the nervous system. My spiritual training lets me meet what the body is carrying underneath. This is healing that honors both the mystery and the medicine.

I'm a trained yoga teacher, Human Design specialist, and tarot reader, with Reiki Level 3 and 20+ years of physical therapy experience to round out the picture. But more than any certification, what I offer is a safe, unhurried place to come home to yourself.

I live in Freeport, Maine, and I work with people both in person and at a distance.

Most people leave our work feeling lighter, steadier, and finally at home in their own body again.

If you're in the middle of great change, you don't have to do it alone.

Real, lasting change doesn't happen overnight. It isn't a single session or a single breakthrough. In my experience - from two decades with the human body, and my own personal journey - healing is a process of discovery. It's layered, sometimes nonlinear, and more often than not, it's a combination of approaches that finally helps something click.

My work lives in two places: the nervous system and the subconscious mind. Because that's where lasting change actually happens - not in pushing harder or doing more. When the body finds safety, and the old stories we carry begin to gently rewrite themselves, something shifts at the root.

Because the stories we tell ourselves become the reality we live. When the story changes, everything begins to.

Reiki works directly with the body's energy field to release stored tension, calm the nervous system, and restore a sense of safety and flow that your body may not have felt in a long time.

Human Design offers a map of how you're actually wired - your energy, your decision-making, your rhythm - so you can stop forcing a life that was never meant to fit, and start living with your nature instead of against it.

Grounded in the body Twenty years as a physical therapist assistant taught me how deeply the body holds what we carry. That clinical lens keeps this work practical, safe, and rooted - never floating off into the abstract.

Together, they help you come home to yourself. Not fixed, because nothing was broken - just more fully you.
