My Philosophy

  • Life’s most significant moments, the ones that crack us open and change us forever, rarely arrive with instructions. Dying and birthing, grieving and recovering, caregiving and letting go: these are the thresholds where we most need support and where support is often hardest to find.

    I believe that healing is not a straight line and that the body already knows how to move toward balance when it feels safe enough to do so. Darkness and light are both part of what it means to be fully human, and both belong in the healing process.

    My approach to Reiki is rooted in presence, patience, and deep respect for wherever you are in your journey. I do not try to rush grief, fix pain, or bypass the hard parts of a transition. Instead I create a supported space where your nervous system and soul can settle, where what needs to move can move, and where you can reconnect with the steadiness, wholeness, and ease that are already within you.

    Whether you are sitting beside someone in what may be their final days, recovering from illness, navigating the rawness of expectant or new parenthood, or carrying the invisible weight of caregiving, you deserve support that sees the whole of your experience. Reiki offers a way to feel held, grounded, supported, restored, and less alone during the moments that matter most in your life.

    What I Believe

    • Heightened awareness is intelligence

    • We are not separate from, but an extension of nature

    • Our body’s unique rhythms should be honored

    • Rest is not earned, it is essential

    • Support should be easy to access

  • What Ember & Hearth Means

    The ember represents your inner steady glow: your life force, your energy, the part of you that persists even through all seasons of life.

    The hearth represents the respite you deserve: a warm, safe space for restoration, comfort, and coming home to yourself.

    Ember and Hearth offers remote Reiki and distance energy healing for people in the middle of something profound.

    Grief, caregiving, birth, postpartum, illness, dying, recovery, and the kind of life transitions that leave you altered.

    These are the moments when nervous system support becomes less of a luxury and more of a lifeline.

    Remote Reiki is how we tend that ember together, from wherever you are, even in the dark.
