What to Expect

A Grounded, Supportive Place to Begin

Starting something new can bring questions.

You may be wondering what a session will feel like, what you’ll be asked to do, whether you need to prepare, or what will be expected of you.

My approach is grounded, compassionate, and guided by you. There is no pressure to share more than you want to, no expectation to have everything figured out, and no special way you need to prepare.

Whether you come for Shamanic Healing or Reiki ~ Energy Healing, we begin with what you’re experiencing and allow the work to unfold from there.

Before Your Session

There is very little you need to do to prepare.

Come in comfortable clothing and, if possible, give yourself a little breathing room before and after your appointment. If we’re meeting online, choose a place where you can be comfortable and reasonably undisturbed.

You may arrive knowing exactly what you want to work with—or you may simply know that something feels off, heavy, unresolved, or ready to change.

You don’t need to know why. Discovering what needs attention can be part of the session.

We Begin With Conversation

Every session begins with a conversation.

We’ll talk about what has been happening, what feels most present, and what you would like support with.

I listen not only to what you’re telling me, but also for the patterns, emotions, beliefs, and deeper threads that may be connected to what you’re experiencing.

From there, we decide together where to begin.

What Happens Next Depends on the Session You Choose

Shamanic Healing

Shamanic Healing is more exploratory and interactive.

We may use guided journeying, Medicine Wheel or Medicine Sphere work, energy healing, shadow work, energetic clearing, retrieval work, ancestral or past-life exploration, intuitive guidance, or other shamanic practices to explore the deeper landscape surrounding what you’re experiencing.

Sometimes what emerges is symbolic or visual. Sometimes it comes through emotion, sensation, memory, insight, or a deeper sense of knowing.

There is no right or wrong way to experience the work.

Reiki & Energy Healing

Reiki & Energy Healing is generally quieter and more receptive.

After a brief conversation, you relax comfortably while I work with Reiki and your energy field using gentle hands-on or hands-above-body techniques.

Depending on what you need, I may also incorporate chakra balancing, energetic clearing, grounding, breathwork, or intuitive guidance.

You don’t need to do anything or make anything happen. This is an opportunity to slow down, receive, and allow yourself space to rest and rebalance.

During Your Session

Every session unfolds differently.

I don’t follow a fixed formula. The work is guided by what you bring, what emerges, and how you are responding along the way.

You remain an active participant in the process. If you need to pause, ask a question, change direction, or tell me something doesn’t feel right, you can.

Nothing needs to be forced or rushed.

Some sessions bring clarity or a new understanding. Others may involve releasing, clearing, reconnecting, retrieving, resting, or simply experiencing something differently.

We work with what is present and what feels ready.

After Your Session

Give yourself some space to notice what unfolds.

You may leave feeling lighter, clearer, calmer, energized, reflective, emotional, or simply different in a way that is difficult to immediately put into words.

You may also notice new insights, emotions, dreams, memories, or shifts in perspective over the following days.

There is no particular way you are supposed to feel afterward.

Rest if you need to. Drink water, spend time outside, journal, move your body, or simply continue with your day. Allow yourself to integrate the experience in whatever way feels supportive.

Come As You Are

You don’t need previous experience with shamanic healing, Reiki, meditation, spirituality, or energy work.

You don’t need to follow a particular belief system.

And you don’t need to arrive knowing exactly what needs to happen.

Bring what you’re experiencing. We’ll begin there.
