I’ve been a practicing bodyworker for 42 years and a licensed psychotherapist for 16 of those years, embedded in the midst my massage therapy career.

I discovered CranioSacral Therapy at the turn of the century. Upledger’s inclusion of SomatoEmotional Release®️ work granted me a modality that merges what I’ve intuitively known since the first few weeks of my career and what asian and shamanic traditions have known for centuries:

​

Healing is a bodymind proposition.

What I didn’t know at the time, was that exploring and experiencing the subtleties and nuances of the craniosacral system would draw me more deeply into the fine line between bodywork and energy work —a fine line that, for me, ultimately disappears completely.  

I’ve dipped into many energy healing modalities.* l’ve soaked up diverse theories and techniques. I’ve sensed this information integrate organically with my work over the years. Two things stand out. First, the more I investigate seemingly contradictory systems, the more the contradictions dissolve. Second, my experience of body energy is an evolving image of an ocean of energy with many discrete energy currents flowing within this ocean.  Enter Reiki Therapy— working with energy as an ocean. 

I’d practiced CranioSacral Therapy a little over a decade when I felt myself drawn to Reiki Therapy.  For me, Reiki feels like working with the ocean. I open myself to receive Universal Energy (translation of "Reiki). I help others become receptive to their own Inner Wisdom combining with the inscrutability of Reiki to explore healing potentials that serve best one's interests and highest purpose.
