Helping anxious, overwhelmed women find calm and clarity through energy healing and nervous system regulation.

04/27/2026

At the most basic level, everything is energy.

Emotions are energy in motion.

That is not a metaphor, it’s physiology.

When you feel something (fear, grief, anger, shame) your body responds. Your heart rate shifts, hormones release, and your nervous system activates.

That is emotion doing what it is designed to do. But what happens for so many people is they learned early on that certain feelings aren’t safe to express. That their anger was too much, their grief made other people uncomfortable, or that the right thing to do was suppress it and just keep going.

So the emotion, or the energy that has nowhere to go, didn’t disappear. It got stored.

Stored in the body... And in the nervous system… And into the tight chest, chronic exhaustion, and the low-grade anxiety that never goes away.

I spent 15+ years in the medical field watching this happen. I could see two people with the same diagnosis have very different outcomes.

What I noticed was the ones who stayed stuck were almost always carrying something unprocessed.

Energy work is how we go back in. To gently move what has been frozen and give the body permission to restore balance. Our bodies natural naturally know how to heal when given the right environment.

This is why I love energy work. This is why reiki works! This is why clients cry on the table without knowing why. And why he healing sometimes feels less like a breakthrough and more like a very deep exhale.

So yes, I’m a little woo 😉but also a lot of science, experience, and results

Have you ever tried to let go of a relationship and just couldn't?

You know it's unhealthy and not making you feel good, but something keeps pulling you back?

Or maybe you’re not even in the relationship anymore, but you still feel consumed by thoughts of them.

It's frustrating and can make you question yourself (and your sanity).

But this isn’t always a willpower problem.

Sometimes, your body and energy are still holding onto the connection.

That’s what we often refer to as an energetic cord.

Cord cutting and reiki are energetic tools to help release what is no longer healthy and preventing you from moving on. It doesn't erase the love that was there, but it helps you create space for peace 🤍

I’m loving this message right now✨

“My aura is strong and protective”

There is so much power in learning to protect your energy!

Notice what drains you and honor that you don’t have to carry what was never yours.

Your auric field is always communicating. When you feel grounded, present, and connected to yourself it naturally strengthens.

✨ Today’s gentle invitation:
Take a moment to check in with your energy. What feels like yours? What doesn’t? Give yourself permission to release anything that feels heavy.

You are allowed to take up space without absorbing everything around you.

If you’re feeling called to clear, strengthen, or reconnect with your energy, this is the work we do in reiki and intuitive coaching ✨

Distance reiki 🫶🏽from my space to yours ✨

This is a little behind the scenes of how I tune in for a session. It starts with checking in with your energy, moving through each center, and supporting your system in releasing and rebalancing.

Before we begin, we connect on the phone so I can understand your intention and anything you’d like to share. From there, I move into the session, and at the end I’ll often pull a few oracle or tarot cards for any additional insight.

Afterwards, you’ll receive a detailed email with what came through and ways to support the work moving forward.

You don’t have to be physically in the room for your body to respond!

In fact, some people feel even more relaxed receiving this way because they’re in their own space without having to ‘do’ anything at all.

Energy isn’t limited by location. And your body knows exactly how to receive what it needs!

If you’re curious about distance reiki, I’m always happy to answer questions.

The New Moon in Aries arrives tomorrow, and if you've been waiting for a sign to finally put yourself first, this is it. 🔥

This is the most potent and fiery New Moon of the year. The energy of this moon is asking you something most of us have never been taught to answer honestly:

Who are you, when you stop performing for everyone else?

New moons are perfect time to set intentions and gain clarity about what you really want. Carve out some time tonight or tomorrow night to check in with your self. Declare what you want. Write about it. Affirm it!

Swipe for what to expect, journal prompts, affirmations, and how to work with this energy. 🌑

Behind the scenes shift🤍

I’ve made the decision to fully root into my East Longmeadow space, so as of May I’ll no longer be offering sessions in Hampden, MA.

The space has such great energy and feels like an aligned next step for growth 🤩

If you’ve been thinking about booking a session, I’d love to work with you.

✨I offer Reiki, Shamanic Reiki, Card readings, and 1:1 Coaching & Mentorship ✨

If you consider yourself a calm, peaceful person - someone who keeps the peace, avoids conflict, holds it all together - this episode is specifically for you. 🎙️

We're talking about the connection between suppressed anger and anxiety. Specifically why people pleasers are so afraid of their own anger, and what years of keeping the peace might actually be doing to your nervous system.

And I left you with a practice that takes five minutes and costs nothing.

If you've been living with low-grade anxiety, this episode might give you the answer you've been looking for.

People pleasing isn't a personality trait. It's a survival strategy you learned a long time ago.

And somewhere along the way, it started costing you everything - your energy, your voice, your sense of self.

I know, because I lived it.

I spent years saying yes when I meant no, shrinking to keep the peace, and feeling guilty for wanting more. I looked fine on the outside, but inside I was running on empty and losing myself.

So I wrote the book I needed.

Confessions of a People Pleaser is part memoir, part roadmap - for the woman who is done following everyone else's rules and is finally ready to make her own.

Swipe through to meet some of the 'Sabotaging Shoulds' - the beliefs that might be quietly running your life right now. ➡️

I found Reiki during a time in my life when I was having panic attacks I couldn’t explain.

From the outside, everything looked “fine.” But internally, I was overwhelmed, grieving, and holding so much in.

One session felt like a pressure release valve. And it made me realize how much I had been carrying.

That experience is a big part of why I do this work now.

I see so many women who are doing everything “right”… but still feel anxious, disconnected, or just not like themselves.

If that’s you, you don’t have to keep pushing through it alone.

I shared a few ways we can work together in this post 🤍

If you're a people pleaser, you were probably taught anger is “bad.”

So you stayed quiet.
Kept the peace.
Told yourself it wasn’t a big deal.

But anger doesn’t disappear…

It usually means something deeper:
a need that wasn’t met
a boundary that was crossed
a wish that didn’t get honored

And when anger feels unsafe, it doesn’t go away, it transforms:

anger → guilt → anxiety → fear

If anxiety has been your baseline, there may be something underneath it asking to be felt.

I wrote more about this (and what anger is actually trying to tell you) on the blog 🤍
