Oh lovely empath, I know how you’ve been feeling, because I’ve been there too.
Completely burnt out, where nothing seems to refill your empty bucket?
Guiltily resentful of the people you normally enjoy helping?
Disconnected from your sense of self and what you really want or need?
Yep, yep, and yeeeeep.
Picture this:
I’m deep in the trenches of being a Montessori preschool teacher. I lead a bonkers classroom of rambunctious 3-5 year olds…
I sign up for a Reiki training course, site unseen, just going off intuition and curiosity.
And wouldn’t you know it, the biggest epiphany of my life happened as soon as I discovered energy work…
I realized I don’t have to absorb or hold on to everyone else’s emotions to be a loving friend, daughter, sister, or partner.
And here’s the thing, neither do you.
For the last eight years I’ve been helping empaths like you learn to take care of your energy, so you can continue bringing light to the ones you love.
So how exactly do you do that?
I use energy work and somatic healing to reconnect you to your higher self-aka-the part of you that has the zest, wisdom, and creativity that’s felt so distant these days.
This part of you knows exactly what you need, and I’m just the go-to-gal helping you two get reacquainted.
Why empaths?
Well, it helps that I am one! I’m hypersensitive to everything around me, especially other people’s emotions. And the way I see it, our intense, overly busy world is in desperate need of sensitive souls who have the power to help others in a deep, impactful way.
I’m dedicated to supporting YOU, so you can keep doing badass empath things.
How can we work together?
Private sessions are my jam, and I love getting empaths on the table one-on-one for healing. I also teach Reiki classes and have some courses specific to empaths that pop up as well.

Common Questions & Concerns from Clients
I have a lot of negative energy in my body right now, I’m worried I’ll dump it on you!
My lovely empath clients ask about this all the time! The simple answer is please don’t worry about this during your session.
I have many boundary, clearing, and grounding tools in place so that I feel completely safe and protected with whatever arises on the table. You focus on what you need to let go of, and I’ll hold safe space for us both.
This sounds ‘crazy’, but I feel and hear what people are thinking and feeling
First of all, this type of ‘hearing’ is NOT crazy. These are amplified sensitivities and classic qualities of an empath.
They may feel overwhelming when your energy is low or your boundaries need strengthening, which can make you start to feel ungrounded or even ‘crazy.’
But you, my dear, are not crazy. Trust that those feelings are actually signals that you are in need of a shift and some loving assistance.
How often should I book a session?
Very generally, I recommend monthly tune-up sessions. However, I really want you to trust your intuition when it comes to what you need.
Some clients come for sessions seasonally, some for bi-weekly sessions during a healing “moment”, and many just feel it in their body and come in when it feels right.
My Empath programs will book sessions monthly or bi-monthly depending on which package you’ve chosen.
How long have you been doing this?
I’ve been officially giving healing sessions since 2015 first in Boulder and now Denver.
BUT…my brothers would tell you much longer since I used to try to “heal” them in the woods in our backyard when we were kids.
I’ve been hearing about it, but what exactly is Reiki?
Rei-ki can be translated to Universal Life Force Energy in Japanese.
This energy flows through us and is present in everything we do and feel. When there are blockages in this flow of energy, we feel them as physical, mental, and emotional disruptions, or dis-ease.
Reiki heals and clears those blockages by connecting to Universal energy and your highest self.
Are you drained after giving energy healing?
If I’m taking care of myself and my boundaries, I feel fantastic after sessions! The healing runs through me and to you, so I’m receiving all that divine love too!
Best practices for Reiki mean that I’m letting energy flow to you, not giving you any of my own or taking any of yours. I strive for this with every single client!
And as all of us empaths & humans do, sometimes I don’t take care of myself the way I need to and start to get drained. This is simply my signal that I need to rest, listen to my intuition, and get back on track with my self-care.
