About me

Gentle, trauma-informed Reiki & energy healing for emotional release and nervous system calm, with the option to combine talking therapy (if desired)

When life has been overwhelming, stressful, or traumatic, the body often holds onto those experiences long after the moment has passed. This can show up as anxiety, tension, emotional heaviness, or unexplained physical symptoms that don’t seem to have a clear medical cause, yet feel very real in the body.

Clients often come to me when they are experiencing:

  • Anxiety, overwhelm, or emotional burnout
  • Ongoing stress held in the body
  • Trauma or difficult life experiences, including domestic abuse and bereavement
  • Unexplained illness often connected to past trauma
  • Feeling disconnected, stuck, or out of balance
  • In our sessions, you may experience:
  • Gentle emotional or energetic release
  • Reduced anxiety and physical tension
  • A calmer, more regulated nervous system
  • Greater grounding, clarity, and self-worth
  • A renewed sense of peace and wholeness

Alongside Reiki, I often work with carefully selected crystals to support your healing process. Crystals are chosen intuitively and collaboratively, tailored to what feels most supportive for you in the moment. They can help rebalance the chakra system, support emotional release, and gently regulate the nervous system, promoting a sense of safety, calm, and grounding. Some crystals are used to amplify and focus healing energy, while others are chosen to support protection, grounding, and stability within the session.

 I am also a qualified, person-centred counsellor with a strong background in trauma-informed work. This allows me to hold a safe, attuned space where both your emotional and energetic needs are honoured, supporting you as a whole person, body, mind, and spirit.

If you’re feeling ready to release what you’ve been holding and reconnect with yourself, I’d be honoured to support you.

Training, qualifications & experience

My connection with energy healing began in childhood. I would often place my hands on my mum to comfort her when she was struggling with depression or migraines, feeling a natural warmth and flow of energy that I didn’t yet understand. It wasn’t until adulthood, when I was introduced to Reiki, that I realised I had been intuitively channelling this healing energy all along.

I have always been drawn to crystals, collecting and choosing them instinctively, and later deepened my knowledge of their many emotional and energetic benefits. This lifelong interest, combined with my background as a qualified counsellor, inspired me to explore how emotional experiences are held in the body and how healing can occur through both mind and energy.

I trained at The Shakra Centre and obtained my FHT-accredited qualifications in Reiki and Crystal Healing, becoming a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT). My approach integrates the energetic, emotional, and physical aspects of wellbeing to offer a truly holistic experience.

I am fully insured.

First session is half price. If you would like to come for a trial, I would love to hear from you. Louise
