Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Reiki with Somatics session?
Reiki with Somatics is a unique, integrative healing approach that combines traditional energy work with somatic (body-based) awareness practices. Together, these modalities help you access and release stored emotions, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect with your body’s natural wisdom for healing and balance.
What can I expect during a session?
Each session begins with a short conversation to understand what’s present for you physically, emotionally, and energetically. You’ll then be guided into a relaxed state while I use gentle energy work and somatic guidance to support your body in releasing tension and emotional blockages. You may experience sensations such as warmth, tingling, or emotional release — all of which are normal signs that your system is shifting and integrating.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
It’s best to come with an open mind and wear comfortable clothing. Avoid heavy meals or caffeine right before your session; however, do make sure to eat before your appointment (sessions range between 1.5-2 hours). You may also want to set an intention for what you’d like to receive or release during your session.
How many sessions will I need?
Healing is a process, and every person’s journey is unique. While even one session can bring noticeable shifts, treatment plans are important to see results and create sustainable change. I often recommend a series of sessions, especially when working through long-held patterns, trauma, or emotional imbalances. Together, we can discuss a plan that feels supportive and aligned for you.
Do you offer virtual sessions?
Yes, I offer both in-person and virtual sessions. Reiki and somatic guidance work beautifully at a distance, allowing you to experience deep healing from the comfort of your own space. Access bars sessions are an in-person-only modality.
What is your cancellation policy?
If you need to reschedule your appointment, please reach out at least 24 hours before your scheduled time, and I’ll be happy to assist you. All late cancellations and no-shows result in a 50% service charge. Thank you for understanding and respecting this policy — it helps keep the flow of appointments smooth for everyone.
The booking system requires a card on file to comply with the cancellation policy above. Payment is not required to book your appointment. Please reach out with any questions or concerns.
What if I’m new to energy or somatic work?
You’re in the right place. Sessions are gentle, guided, and tailored to your comfort level. I’ll walk you through what to expect, answer any questions, and make sure you feel safe and supported throughout the process.
What kind of results can I expect?
Many clients report feeling lighter, more centered, and more connected to themselves after just one session. Over time, you may notice emotional regulation, reduced stress, improved clarity, and a deeper sense of embodiment. Healing unfolds in layers — each session meets you exactly where you are.
