Yes, and that's exactly what trauma-informed training is for. I pace the work to what your system can handle, and I won't push you past it. You set the intention, you stay in control, and we go only as far as feels right that day.

A private session is one-on-one and shaped entirely around you. In a private session, we begin with somatic processing before we move into breathwork.  A circle is a group breathing together, which carries its own kind of power and is more accessible for some. There is no one size fits all. Some beginners start in private work then move into a circle, while others start in a circle and move into private work; it’s a matter of what fits each individual, what they’re moving through, and when they're ready to go deeper.

You stay fully clothed and lie down while I place my hands lightly on or just above the body, depending on your preference. Most people feel warmth, a little tingling, or simply a deep quiet. Sixty – ninety minutes, and most leave feeling like their whole system got reset.

Both, and I don't think those have to compete. The breathing does measurable things to your nervous system, moving you toward the parasympathetic state and releasing endorphins. The spiritual side is real too. You don't have to believe anything in particular for your body to respond.

None at all. Plenty of my clients arrive having never done breathwork or Reiki, a little skeptical, honestly. That's a perfectly good place to begin.

Both. In-person sessions are in Lothian and around Anne Arundel County. Virtual sessions work better than most people expect, since your breath comes with you wherever you are.

Then you get emotional, and that's welcome here. Tears, laughter, an old memory surfacing, it's all part of the work. The room is built to hold it, and you won't be doing it alone.

Often the same session. Many people feel calmer and lighter by the time they leave the first one. The deeper patterns take a few sessions to shift, the way most things worth doing do.

I do. I offer Usui Holy Fire® III Reiki certification through to the master teacher level, and an Activation Breathwork Facilitator Certification co-facilitated with Gwen Dittmar. Both are for people ready to do their own healing first, then guide others.
