I have been involved with energy healing since the early 1980’s when I learned to use Therapeutic Touch. In 1995 I took Reiki I with Libby Barnett and Maggie Chambers, then continued to study with Cynthia Greer and received a certificate as a Usui Reiki Master Teacher in the Takata tradition in 1999.
In 2013 I took another Reiki Master training with Audrey and James Pearson who are students of contemporary Japanese Reiki Master, Hiroshi Doi. This training emphasized the rich tradition of Japanese Reiki techniques that were not included in my original training and considerably broadened my skills and understanding.
Most recently, in May 2016, I studied with William Lee Rand of the International Center of Reiki training, and received my third Master’s Level training in Holy Fire II Karuna® Reiki. This form of Reiki feels much stronger and has increased my intuitive connection to the process. The attunement process is simplified but made more effective, and we use new techniques that augment the traditional hands on healing method. Clients are reporting great responses and seeing better results!
In the meantime I also got a Masters degree in Occupational Therapy at Tufts in 1993 and have incorporated Reiki into my work with patients in rehabilitation, acute care, and home care throughout my career.
I live with my husband in Jamaica Plain and when I’m not doing Reiki I like to garden, hike, bicycle, read, spend time with our grandchildren, and do volunteer work. I work part time as an Occupational Therapist at the New England Baptist Hospital.
