About Me
Hi, I’m Taylor! Over the past 11 years I’ve been dedicated to understanding the atmosphere and working in environmental protection. In my spare time, I love listening to birds and reading endless fantasy stories. However, I have suffered from chronic pain, undiagnosed Autism/ADHD, and severe depression. This interfered greatly with my work and relationships. I was desperate for help to save myself, my job, and my marriage.
For the last 5 years, I have passionately learned how our hearts and minds communicate to our consciousness (hence, Body-Heart Connections) as well as our nervous system processes and how trauma interrupts this system.
Through curiosity and self compassion I have been able to look at what it is I’m contributing to in my life, who I gravitate to, and how this translates to unexplainable body pain. I have healed a significant amount of trauma through shamanic reiki practices, redefined my beliefs about myself, and can now flow in and out of deep work with love.
My performance and stress at work is significantly better, my marriage is amazingly supportive and honest now, and my chronic pain is not consistently present anymore. While I still have flare-ups, it’s much more manageable and shows me when I’m not taking care of myself. I just thank my body for communicating its needs and follow its lead on how to care for it.
We have been conditioned to ignore our innate intuition in favor of following the status quo. Like a muscle to train, I am here to help you 'work out' your intuition by offering a mix of energy work, breathing techniques, meditations, and co-active coaching to tangibly support you on your journey of self-discovery and healing. Reiki itself is a pain and stress reduction technique that can provide lots of relief during sessions. I want to help you reconnect with your body and heart so you may make decisions in life that are rooted in happiness, understanding, and love. Find out more about my training below.

Reiki is a Japanese energy technique providing relaxation and stress reduction which initiates the body’s natural healing mechanisms. It can improve mental clarity, positivity, and reduce pain and illness. Sessions utilize Usui/Holy Fire® III Master and Karuna Reiki, co-active coaching techniques, and shamanic practices trained with the Munay-Ki rites. We will assess where life energy has become blocked and increase the flow between your chakras and meridians.
Some signs there are energy blockages are if you experience lots of depression, emotional numbness, anxiety, body pains, or fatigue with little to no improvement after other treatments.Other client intentions for these services may consist of:
wanting help with recurring memories - feeling plagued by your history;
wanting to change habits or feeling trapped in cycles;
wanting to learn how to listen to yourself and finally love yourself;
finding closure;
help with feeling haunted; or
maybe you’re unsure but you found yourself here anyway.
Homework will be given to help the integration of each healing session. I will call or text you within the following week to see how you are doing post-session.
