Energy healing Reiki & intuitive guidance

Trauma-informed energy healing for deep transformation

Come as you are. Leave feeling lighter, centered, and deeply connected to your authentic self.

This is a practice where Western neuroscience and Eastern teachings unite to:

  • Reduce stress,
  • Bring balance and regulation, and 
  • Invite clarity and peace. 

In this integrative approach, we access not only the meridians and organ systems directly, but also the biofield, chakras, and your Higher Self.

Private sessions: energy healing reiki and intuitive guidance.

Grounded in intuitive holographic Reiki and somatic awareness, energetic blocks begin to release, trauma patterns and old stories gently dissolve, and the nervous system settles into safety. 

As an intuitive guide, Dorothy is also able to support you with:

  • Bringing clarity and spiritual guidance
  • Energy field & cord clearing
  • Chakra balancing
  • Higher Self connection
  • Spiritual guidance, including animal totems, angels, guides
  • Clearing karma
  • Connection to the Higher Selves of others (living/deceased, pets, etc.)
  • Emotional release

Details

  • One-on-one
  • 60 minutes
  • In person in Orleans, Ottawa, or via distance over Zoom
  • Weekday and evening appointments are available.

Sound therapy

Allow yourself to be held, to release, to rest.

Let go of what you didn’t know you were still holding.

Sound therapy is a powerful, accessible, and non-invasive healing modality. It focuses on the use of frequencies (their sounds and vibrations) to impact nervous system balance and regulation, stress reduction, and the releasing and discharging of trauma.

This practice is rooted in the union of Western neuroscience and Traditional Chinese Medicine to access brainwave states, the vagus nerve, meridians, and organ systems directly. 

Sessions may involve the use of instruments (singing bowls, ocean drum, gong, etc.), vocal toning, mantra, and tuning forks.
