About Me

Daughter of the Sun, Student of the Earth

​

​With over 15 years of experience in science and nursing, I have developed a deep respect for the body's wisdom and the resilience of the human spirit. My foundation is clinical care, but I know that true healing requires more than knowledge.  It requires warmth. It requires space. It requires the nervous system to feel safe enough to soften.

​

For much of my life, I lived with anxiety — with people pleasing, shame, and the quiet fear of not being enough. I know how convincing those inner stories can feel when the nervous system is on high alert.

​

My own healing began when I stopped trying to fix myself and instead learned how to regulate, soften, and reconnect to my center. It was never about becoming someone new. It was about remembering the deeper Self that had always been there beneath the fear.

 

I created Solshine Reiki as a place where you can exhale. A place where the body grows still, the breath deepens, and the inner sun begins to rise again. 

​

My practice centers around the solar plexus — our inner fire. This is the seat of personal power, confidence, and authentic expression. Chronic stress can dim this center. When it is supported gently and consistently, warmth returns. Clarity expands. Inner strength feels natural rather than forced.

​

Grounded in the earth and warmed by the sun, I hold space for both steadiness and expansion — for rootedness and radiance. I am most at home near the water, with bare feet on the earth and the sun on my face. Whether sitting quietly with animals, walking along the shore, or supporting a client through transition, I am devoted to helping others reconnect to their center and their inner light.

​

I walk this path with reverence and joy. My hope is simple: to help you remember your own lightbecause you were never separate from it.  

My Philosophy

I believe in a partnership where you are re-empowered to heal yourself.  I offer a gentle, divinely guided and never forced energy to you in a safe and sacred space. In this partnership, Reiki harmoniously integrates the body, mind and spirit to bring balance for healing. This allows greater clarity and awareness to unfold in our day to day lives so we can recognize our power within and truly free the story we tell ourselves.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
